It looks like Wolverine, She-Hulk, Loki, and more iconic heroes are about to succumb to the Venom symbiote in the pages of the upcoming What If…? Venom! from Marvel Comics.
The five-issue mini-series is written by Jeremy Holt with art by Jesus Hervas.
Years ago, in a familiar church tower, the Venom symbiote was spurned by Peter Parker and found a willing host in the vengeful and wrathful Eddie Brock! Or, at least, that’s the story you know! Get an all-new look at what makes the Marvel Universe’s most sinister symbiote tick, starting with a journey that reimagines its earliest days bonded to a host with a rage and temper ENTIRELY different from those of Eddie Brock!
“Having the opportunity to play within the Venom sandbox is cool. Having the opportunity to bond five iconic heroes to the alien parasite is cooler,” writer Jeremy Holt said in a press release from Marvel Comics. “In doing so within the What If…? concept, I’ve had an absolute blast crafting a linear revisionist history that’s provided me the latitude to introduce distinct versions of the anti-hero that we’ve all come to love.”
What If…? Venom #1 arrives on February 28, 2024, and features a cover by Leinil Francis Yu.
