VENOM #4 
DONNY CATES (W) • RYAN STEGMAN (A/C)
An ancient Klyntar has awakened on Earth, and with it, something has stirred in Eddie Brock’s symbiote. And while Venom would never do anything to hurt Eddie or an innocent person, the ancient symbiote has no such qualms…

It’s Venom vs. Spider-Man once again…for the first time! Eddie Brock takes on a very different web-slinger: Ben Reilly! With Venom a wanted man and Eddie’s ex-wife Anne Weying caught in the middle, a deadly rivalry is reborn! And when the symbiote-hunting alien Xenophage targets Venom, this time it’s Eddie’s brain in danger of being eaten! Meanwhile, four imprisoned symbiotes join together to become Hybrid — but how will this unstable new hero be judged by the Jury? And as Venom’s hunger threatens to overwhelm him, can Eddie keep his “other” in check — or will everyone’s favorite symbiote become a crazed cannibal killer? Either way, Venom’s in for a world of hurt — courtesy of Dr. Paine! Collecting VENOM: ALONG CAME A SPIDER #1-4, VENOM: THE HUNTED #1-3, VENOM: THE HUNGER #1-4 and material from SPIDER-MAN HOLIDAY SPECIAL 1995.


VENOMIZED TPB
Written by CULLEN BUNN Penciled by IBAN COELLO & KEVIN LIBRANDA Cover by NICHOLAS BRADSHAW

The story that began in VENOMVERSE reaches its epic conclusion! The Poisons, a species that hungers for super-powered symbiotes and their hosts, have picked their next target: the Marvel Universe itself! Their first objective? Put every superhuman in a Klyntar symbiote — and then consume them! And with Venom and the X-Men still missing after the events of “Poison-X,” Earth stands defenseless! By the time they make it back home, Venom and the X-Men find dozens of heroes and villains unwillingly bonded with symbiotes. And when the Poisons consume one of their strongest allies, the champions of Earth must rally — and stand against one of their own! But what do the Poisons have planned for Cletus Kasady, A.K.A. Carnage? And can anything in the galaxy stand in the way of…Poison Thanos?! Collecting VENOMIZED #1-5.
