FIRST YOUR FRIENDS. THEN YOUR FAMILY. THEN YOU.
The next epic SPIDER-MAN and VENOM crossover starts here and continues through April! A new super-powered serial killer is on the loose and they’re coming for Spidey, Venom and everyone in between. But what terrible secret has CARNAGE learned, and what does it have to do with Spider-Man?!

The saga begins in Amazing Spider-Man/Venom: Death Spiral #1, a special one-shot in February, and continues in issues of Amazing Spider-Man and Venom through April.
In Death Spiral, Amazing Spider-Man scribe Joe Kelly teams up with current symbiote storytellers Al Ewing and Charles Soule to deliver a gut-wrenching super hero drama alongside a trio of all-star artists—Ed McGuinness, Carlos Gómez, and Jesús Saíz.
Spider-Man has returned to Earth just in time to face Carnage, who’s discovered Spider-Man’s secret identity in the mind of his newest host, Eddie Brock! When Spider-Man and Venom team up against the killer symbiote, another shocking secret is revealed as Peter Parker discovers that Mary Jane is the All-New Venom! It’s a collision course of danger that explodes when Peter, Mary Jane, and Eddie find themselves in the crosshairs of Torment, a new serial killer supervillain with a mysterious—and deeply personal—connection to Spider-Man. No one is safe as Spider-Man, Venom and Carnage join forces to figure out who Torment is and stop their loved ones from getting caught in his web of death!
