Venom: Along Came a Spider #[nn]

Against a web-drenched green background, Greg Luzniak and Bob Wiacek deliver a visceral cover image of Venom's massive, black-symbiote form looming over and grappling with a red-and-blue-suited Spider-Man, all gnashing teeth and wild tendrils. The raw physical tension between these two rivals is palpable — Venom clearly has the upper hand, his alien mass enveloping the scene with menace. This 2018 Marvel collection is a satisfying showcase for fans who love their symbiote action loud and unrestrained.
