Marvel Unveils New Series at NY Comic Con
The annual New York Comic Con always promises surprises. This year, Marvel Comics didn’t disappoint. During the Spider-Man and his Venomous Friends panel, some thrilling news emerged. Senior Editor Jordan D. White, alongside Al Ewing and Charles Soule, captivated the audience with their announcement.
A Darker Chapter in Symbiote Lore
Marvel introduced “Eddie Brock: Carnage,” a fresh chapter in the Symbiote saga. Scheduled for a February release, the series picks up after the intense VENOM WAR. Eddie Brock, already a familiar face in the Marvel Universe, harbors the volatile Carnage symbiote. This notorious entity is known for its violent and sadistic nature. Charles Soule, revered for his work on STAR WARS, helms this intriguing venture.
Artistry Meets Horror
The series’ artwork boasts contributions from Jesus Saiz, known for his work on CAPTAIN AMERICA and PUNISHER. Saiz’s style perfectly suits the series’ eerie theme. Marvel’s tweet declares, “The Most Lethal Protector of All!” Eddie Brock’s journey has seen him as Venom, Anti-Venom, and even the King in Black. Now, he faces his darkest challenge yet: a bond with Carnage.
“Eddie finds himself in a tough spot, having to satisfy Carnage’s cravings by targeting serial killers,” shared Soule. “We’re diving into a kind of horror storytelling.” Saiz thrives in this darker, macabre setting, promising an immersive experience for fans.
Connections to the Marvel Universe
The upcoming series will intertwine with ALL-NEW VENOM. This series features a new host for the Venom symbiote, adding layers to Eddie Brock’s complex identity. The narrative questions whether Eddie can control the raging monster or spiral into its violent urges.
The debut issue, “Eddie Brock: Carnage #1,” sports a cover by Iban Coello. A special Foil Variant Cover by Mark Bagley will also be available, both hitting shelves on February 12th.
