In this article, we’ll delve into the details of “All-New Venom #1,” set to hit shelves on December 4, 2024. We’re here to share all the intriguing insights about this fresh storyline that you won’t want to miss!

Written by Al Ewing and illustrated by Carlos Gómez, issue #1 of All-New Venom is set to release on December 4th. This fresh storyline brings a captivating new twist to Marvel’s iconic Symbiote character. The official synopsis for the comic offers the following insights:

Who has assumed control over the all-new Venom? The infamous spider-villain of New York, loved and hated in equal measure for his charming antics, is back with a fresh dose of mischief – and he’s more playful than ever! But wait, it’s not Spiderman we’re talking about… It’s Venom, you say? A new host has given the symbiote a complete transformation – but who exactly is it?

As a dedicated fan, I’m thrilled to be part of this intriguing game of guesswork! The enigma could be a Journalist, a Terrorist, a Sidekick, or even a Mayor. With subtle hints scattered throughout the narrative, we’re all on the edge of our seats, eagerly waiting for the truth to unfold. Al Ewing, the mastermind behind VENOM and IMMORTAL THOR, is steering Venom in uncharted territories. Meanwhile, Carlos Gómez, the brilliant artist who has enchanted us with his work on FANTASTIC FOUR and THE AMAZING MARY JANE, breathes life into this exciting story!

Noticeably, the character Venom will be passing on to a new host, and there’s a lot of buzz regarding who this new host might be. Take a look at the image provided for a glimpse of the possible candidate.

The upcoming series holds a significant enigma, as viewers are eagerly anticipating the revelation of the latest Venom character. Although we’ve gleaned some hints about the new Symbiote’s persona, concrete details remain elusive. Author Al Ewing recently spoke about the series with IGN.

Instead of maintaining the high-octane, time-traveling, cosmic chaos, we’re now transitioning to a more grounded approach in the Venom series. After exploring the extreme limits of weirdness and mayhem, it’s time for a change – a return to the gritty, street-level reality and a deep dive into who exactly the Venom symbiote targets and what transpires when we strip everything back to the fundamental elements of Spider-Man’s universe.

In certain aspects, this locale feels unfamiliar to the symbiote after a long absence; yet, in others, it’s a destination Venom, even as the Lethal Protector, has never ventured. What would Venom, transitioning into an actual hero, appear like? Does it resemble the grandest form of emotional defense this side of Matt Murdock?

We offer a mix of options here – if you’re looking for an outright bizarre take on Venom, there are numerous trades available that lead up to this point, including Donny and Ryan’s run. However, if you’d rather start from scratch and learn about the character’s comic book origins, this is a perfect starting point as it provides all the essential information about where the story stands now, just like any good first issue does.

Regarding the main enigma in the comic book, Ewing has given us intriguing clues about the real identity of the upcoming Venom. This will likely become a highly debated topic in no time.

Rick Jones, as far as I’m aware, has never come close to a symbiote, which is quite unusual nowadays. However, having spent his entire life associating with superheroes such as the Hulk, Captain America, Captain Marvel, and many others, could he be yearning for the thrilling escapades of yesteryears? Or take Luke Cage, who is bulletproof, indestructible, and serves as Mayor in the Marvel universe without any known symbiote ties. Could it be that he craves the super-adventures of the past?

Is it worth considering a team-up for him, given that everyone knows his superhero identity? With his son almost becoming a victim of the recent supervillain conflict, has Robbie Robertson been thinking about taking action instead of merely observing from behind a desk, as he’s done with Spider-man exploits for so long? His family and friends have faced numerous dangers; wouldn’t the prospect of joining the fray be tempting if presented an opportunity?

Lastly, Madame Masque. She met her match in that very street warfare, ultimately deceived by her criminal associates – wouldn’t a heroic persona offer an ideal platform for retribution? These are the four characters Dylan Brock has on his roster, but we’ll gradually reveal the puzzle pieces to readers, together with him…
