If you fondly remember the theme song behind Jim Henson’s mid-1980s TV show then Archaia has something for you.

Venom #1

Venom has gone from “I want to eat your brains” super-villain to “lethal protector” of the innocent. However, the anti-hero persona might be going away for good, starting with Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman’s Venom #1 (MAR180796).

S.H.I.E.L.D. has collapsed and the organization’s absence has awakened something beneath New York – something so jarring that it might be time for the symbiote to ditch Eddie Brock and fully embrace Venom!
