Venom: The Mace

In 1994, Marvel published this three-issue miniseries by writer Carl Potts and artists Liam Sharp and Bill Reinhold, which pits Eddie Brock’s Venom against a new, armored vigilante known as The Mace. It’s a tight, action-driven story that also introduces Beck Underwood, a character who would go on to have her own connections in the symbiote mythos. While brief, this series stands as a distinctive ’90s Marvel tale, showcasing Venom in a standalone conflict that emphasizes his antihero edge.
