About this ebook

Collect Venom (2003) #1-18. Daniel Way’s tense and thrill-packed run is collected in one volume! Somehow separated from Eddie Brock, the Venom symbiote has resurfaced near the Arctic Circle — hopping from host to host with the greatest of ease and on the run from enigmatic forces with their own agenda for the elusive alien. Ravenously hungry and craving adrenaline to satiate its appetite, the symbiote seeks out people experiencing intense, base emotions such as rage, jealousy and hatred. As it cuts a bloody swath toward civilization through Canada’s northern regions, it sets its sights on a short, hairy guy with a bad temper: the X-Men’s Wolverine! And as the action moves to New York City, Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four are forced to play damage control as not one but two bloodthirsty Venom creatures cause havoc! Heeere’s Eddie!

Ratings and reviews

The story is pure horror with some sci-fi dashed in for good measure... So why did they use the cartooniest artists in the business? If you're going to rip off John Carpenter it would only make sense to utilise the artist from a horror comic like Preacher, Constantine, or Crossed. Blood and Gore would have been more appropriate than Loony Toons layered in black ooze. Still Sam Kieth and Daniel Way worked on this, and they're the main reason I wanted to read this book in the first place.

Amazing writer and amazingly talented artist who created a great job.
