King in Black

A brooding presence born from the darkest corners of Marvel's Modern Age, King in Black made their debut in 2022's Venom by Ram V and Bryan Hitch, stepping into a corner of the Marvel Universe already crackling with symbiote mythology. Across a compact but charged run of appearances in titles like Venom by Al Ewing & Ram V and All-New Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider, this figure keeps formidable company — sharing pages with the likes of Eddie Brock, Dylan Brock, and the enigmatic Meridius. Still fresh on the scene with only a handful of catalog appearances, King in Black is the kind of character whose every showing feels like an event worth tracking.
