In the fallout from this summer’s highly anticipated crossover event Queen in Black, Eddie Brock and Venom will find themselves reunited while soon-to-be-former host of Venom Mary Jane Watson will once again strike out on her own!

Revealed during the Marvel Comics Next Big Thing panel at San Diego Comic-Con, the two new series launching this Fall will showcase new adventures and status quos for Eddie Brock, freshly reunited with Venom and once again the Lethal Protector, and Mary Jane Watson, now separated from the symbiote and launching her own business venture in New York City with a supporting cast that includes Black Cat, Iron Man, and more.

How exactly do Eddie Brock and Venom get back together and what is their new mission all about? Fan-favorite writer Charles Soule bonds with red-hot artist Tommaso Bianchi to reveal the secrets behind Eddie and Venom’s reunification and detail the next steps for the former King in Black in Venom #1, a new ongoing series launching in October. Venom #1 features a main cover by Davide Paratore with variant covers by Nick Bradshaw and Martin Coccolo. It comes to shelves October 14.

Having been bonded to the Venom symbiote for the past several months following the events of “Venom War,” Mary Jane Watson emerges from Queen in Black with a new lease on life, new career ambitions, and… a top-secret gift? Rising star writer Ashley Allen and legendary artist Phil Noto are teaming up to pull back the curtain on Friendly Neighborhood Mary Jane, a five issue limited series, beginning this November. Friendly Neighborhood Mary Jane #1 is out November 4 and features a main cover by J. Scott Campbell and variant covers by Peach Momoko and Russell Dauterman.

Eddie Brock and Venom are reunited — and it feels so good! After years apart, once again THEY ARE VENOM, and Eddie is not going to let this opportunity go to waste. He is determined to be the ultimate host for the symbiote and be the hero he knows he can be…and he’s not going to let any other super heroes say otherwise!
