Venom Epic Collection, Vol. 1

Venom goes Epic! When Spider-Man learns that his black costume is secretly an alien symbiote, he rejects the suit - and the spurned creature soon finds a new host! Disgraced reporter Eddie Brock has reasons of his own to hate Spider-Man, and together the two merge into the twisted engine of revenge known as Venom! And so begins a rivalry for the ages! Venom has the same powers as Spider-Man, but is bigger, stronger, doesn't trigger his spider-sense...and he knows Spidey's secret identity! Against such a dangerous, determined and deadly foe, how far will Spider-Man have to go to survive?
