When Octavius encounters Flash Thompson it can only mean troubled times for the villain residing in the body of Peter Parker. “Be warned—we have some nasty stuff planned,” stated series writer Dan Slott who is collaborating with artist Humberto Ramos on Superior Spider-Man #22. “Venom always brings out Spider-Man’s dark side, and we’re taking that 10 steps further in this latest arc. You should probably read this in a sunny, well-populated area.”
Nobody had pushed Peter Parker harder than Venom—will Otto Octavius face the same brink? As the symbiote’s tentacles wrap around Otto’s new life, everything he’s worked, sacrificed, and even killed for faces their greatest jeopardy yet.
“There is no better brawl to get the blood pumping like a showdown between Spider-Man and Venom,” remarked Marvel Senior Editor Steve Wacker. “Now that Otto’s in the driver’s, we can see these two clash with a viciousness we’ve never seen before. Believe me when I say we’ve been saving up for this one!”
Sins and secrets continue to be revealed in the sequel series written by Kieron Gillen and illustrated by Adam Kubert which explores the shadowy past of the clawed mutant who runs into trouble with a figure known as Sinister.

“When we last saw Logan at the end of Origin, he was broken—barely straddling the line between man and animal,” said series writer Gillen. “But how did he transform himself from a wild recluse and into the groomed warrior he is today? That was always been a transformation I’ve wanted to explore.”
