VENOM DARK ORIGIN #1 |
|
Written by ZEB WELLS
Pencils & Cover by ANGEL MEDINA
On the unlikely day when an embittered, washed-up journalist met a spurned
symbiotic organism from an alien planet, one of Spider-Man's greatest enemies
was born - a force of evil and vengeance like no other in the Marvel Universe -
VENOM! But is it as simple as that? Discover the true, twisted roots that gave
rise to a lifetime of malevolence for Eddie Brock...AND the symbiote! Writer Zeb
Wells (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN) and artist Angel Medina (SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN) shed
a little light on one of Marvel's darkest monsters!
