The King in Black Amasses New Power to Reclaim His Throne in Knull #1!

Posted on by

Following his return in next month’s Venom #250, Knull, God of Symbiotes and Lord of the Abyss, stars in his first-ever solo series in January! The five-issue limited series will be written by current Venom scribe Al Ewing along with Tom Waltz, with art by symbiote superstar Juanan Ramirez.

Emerging from the darkness during Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman’s seminal run, Knull became the comic book supervillain of the decade, headlining the 2020 crossover, King in Black. It took the combined might of Marvel’s greatest heroes to stop him and his symbiote army from conquering Earth. Now, he begins a new reign of terror, but first, he must reclaim his throne from a startling usurper. Discover his current whereabouts in Venom #250, and then follow his path of destruction to amass new power in Knull #1, a pivotal chapter in the lead up to a symbiote epic coming in 2026.

RETURN OF THE KING!

Weakened from his last death, trapped by the enemy he never expected, the God of the Void waits in a cage once again. His captors think Knull has nothing to fight back with — but in Knull’s hands, nothing is a weapon. And there’s a greater weapon out there, waiting for the King in Black to take it… and take his revenge.

Check out the main cover by Knull co-creator Ryan Stegman and preorder Knull #1 at your local comic shop today!

The Creator of Symbiotes, Knull, Is Now Available on Marvel Contest of Champions

Give into the darkness and join Knull as he seeks to conquer The Contest in Kabam’s MARVEL Contest of Champions!

When all that existed was the darkness there was Knull and he thrived in it. But when the Celestial’s creations began consuming his Living Abyss with radiant light, he retaliated. Knull felled one of these primordial gods, absorbing its power and forming All-Black, the Necrosword. With the power of the Celestials on his side and sheer darkness as his weapon, Knull spawned an army of his own, the Symbiotes. Creatures formed from darkness and fear and designed to extinguish the light. 

Take a look at Knull’s Champion Spotlight, which details his abilities, history, strengths and recommended masteries.

The Contest continues as two new champions overtake the Battlerealm – Anti-Venom and Knull! Find out more about their stories in MARVEL Contest of Champions as Kabam debuted an all-new motion comic teasing the two new Champions coming to the popular mobile fighter. Here is a quick look at what The Contest has in store this month:

A call for help from Nova has come in from the edge of the Symbiote Lands, the unforgiving Battlerealm region that the many Kylntar, (or “Symbiotes”) call home. 

Nova picked up a distress signal from within the Symbiote Lands, one that supplied only foreboding words: “HE IS HERE. OVERRUN.” 

With the rest of the Battlerealm’s Champions indisposed, he has turned to The Contest’s most reliable hero, The Summoner!

CHARACTER BIOS

Eddie Brock, now separated from the Venom Symbiote, had his cancer cured by Martin Li, the alter ego of the Super Villain  Mister Negative. Unbeknown to Li, his healing powers fused with the remnants of the Symbiote in Eddie’s body and created a new mindless Symbiote now known as Anti-Venom.

When all that existed was the darkness there was Knull and he thrived in it. But when the Celestial’s creations began consuming his Living Abyss with radiant light, he retaliated. Knull felled one of these primordial gods, absorbing its power and forming All-Black, the Necrosword. With the power of the Celestials on his side and sheer darkness as his weapon, Knull spawned an army of his own, the Symbiotes. Creatures formed from darkness and fear and designed to extinguish the light.

Both characters will arrive in the game in October. Other MARVEL Contest of Champions updates, including bug fixes, balance updates, the COSMIC ECLIPSE Quest and more can be found HERE.
