Venom War Begins In August, With 5 New Series

Every few years, the symbiotes of Marvel Comics run wild. Events such as Maximum Carnage and King in Black offered the violent mayhem only Venom and his brood can promise. Now, years of drama and death will end with a Venom War.

Venom War is the ultimate endgame of writer Al Ewing, who has been writing the adventures of Eddie Brock and his better half for several years. The current Venom monthly series centered around Eddie and his son, Dylan, as they undertook separate journeys as symbiote heroes. However, a glimpse of a terrifying future forces both to face the fact that there can be only one Venom. The father/son feud will soon become a problem for everyone in the Marvel Universe, forcing them to take a side in the coming conflict.

“This is what we’ve been building to since the start of this wild and way-out symbiote odyssey — the fateful confrontation between father and son!” Ewing explained. “Where better to have it than inside the squared circle? I’m tellin’ ya, goo believer — this is vehemently varied Venom violence like never viewed, and only one host can wear the symbiote when the dust settles! Who’s it gonna be?”

Venom War Tie-Ins Revealed

In addition to the monthly Venom series, Venom War will take place across five limited series. While based on Ewing’s design, the comics are the work of an all-star team of talent. A full list of creators, covers, story synopses, and release dates follows.
