Marvel’s two ongoing symbiote titles will play host to a vicious family drama “Symbiosis Necrosis” begins this week in Venom #31
Written by current Venom and Carnage scribes Torunn Grønbekk and Al Ewing and drawn by Ken Lashley and Pere Pérez, this four-part crossover will take over both titles in March and April. Grønbekk stopped by This Week in Marvel to reveal the scope of the story which kicks off when Carnage, fresh off his latest slaughter spree in Death of the Venomverse, targets Eddie Brock—and how better to get to his mortal enemy than going after Eddie’s son–and fellow Venom—Dylan?!
The father/son pair are currently on interwoven journeys across space and time in the pages of Venom but their paths will collide dramatically when Dylan faces off against Cletus for the first time.
