Following March’s WEB OF SPIDER-VERSE: NEW BLOOD and April’s WEB OF VENOMVERSE: FRESH BRAINS, Kyle Higgins, Mat Groom, and Luciano Vecchio deliver an all-new multiverse-shattering epic in SPIDER-VERSE VS. VENOMVERSE, a five-issue limited comic book series launching in May.
Be sure to catch up on all comic book announcements here!
If you’ve been following all of the exciting stuff the Spider-Verse and the Venomverse have been doing in Marvel Comics, then you know it’s been a wild thrill ride. With comics like Edge of Spider-Verse and Venomverse Reborn, new characters and new stories have made their way into the hearts of Marvel fans. With how big the Marvel Multiverse is, it just isn’t big enough for for Spider-Heroes and Symbiotes to both exist. Coming in April, by the hands of Kyle Higgins, Matt Groom, and Luciano Vecchio, it’s time to choose a side between spiders and symbiotes!
This five-issue event comes out of March’s Web of Spider-Verse: New Blood and April’s Web of Venomverse: Fresh Brains, which are two one-shots that’ll give us new stories and new characters that’ll lead us into the wild war between the two teams.
The assembled armies will feature a diverse cast of characters, including legendary figures like Spider-Man and Venom, as well as fan-favorite and newly introduced characters from past Spider-Verse and Venomverse stories.
What’s going to happen?!
With the fate of the Spider-Verse and Venomverse on the line, these eight-legged warriors will go to any lengths to defend their people – even if it means dying in the process! Will Spider-Man and his allies manage to protect the Web-Heart, or will Venom and his symbiotic comrades show that the Hive-Mind will do whatever it takes to survive? Meet the latest Web-Head, Spider-Prowler, and the enigmatic symbiote Yaleo as this brutal battle threatens their very existence!
What does Matt Groom have to say about it?
“When Dan Slott and Olivier Copiel launched the Spider-Verse in 2014, it transformed the Spider-Man mythos and completely took over the world,” Groom said. “Since then, creators like Donny Cates, Al Ewing and Ram V have transformed the Venom mythos in a way that is arguably just as vital and transformative. Crashing these worlds together is a genuine honor and a privilege— and it gives us an opportunity to push both sides to the breaking point, so we can all discover whether the Spider and Symbiote communities hold strong against the oncoming storm… or if they crack under the pressure!”
“I think one of the genius decisions of this event was having Luciano do all of the character designs for our two lead-in titles,” Groom continued. “Luciano’s superpower is building complex tapestries of intertwined characters and worlds…and I love that readers will get an early taste of that in New Blood and Fresh Brains!”
