Death of the Venomverse is Too Much Venom, Not Enough ‘Verse

With the start of the Fall season, Marvel’s Summer of Symbiotes is coming to an end. The seasonal event was intended to celebrate Venom’s 35th anniversary, and it’s certainly delivered in terms of spectacle. Cult of Carnage: Misery bonded Liz Allan to combined samples of Carnage and Anti-Venom, and introduced fans to the zany six-symbiote hybrid Madness. Bren Waters’ Toxin returned to the pages of Venom after an extended absence from comics. Carnage went on a tear across titles as his own ongoing comic came to an end. At the climax of it all, Death of the Venomverse by Cullen Bunn, Gerardo Sandoval, Jim Campbell, and Clayton Cowles pits a team of Venom variants against Carnage in a lethal interdimensional conflict.The miniseries is the centerpiece of the Summer of Symbiotes and has a name that purposefully calls to mind the prestige of Marvel’s beloved Spider-Verse events. Despite its pedigree, however, Death of the Venomverse and the Venomverse as a whole fall short of their title’s promise. While the series presents interesting one-off ideas for Venom across the multiverse, it does so at the expense of establishing a world already starving for better representation. Death of the Venomverse, while fun, feels sadly insular when it’s weighed against the full potential of a headlining symbiote adventure and a story meant to celebrate the legacy of its title character.In 2017, the concept of a massive Venom crossover was realized on the pages of Venomverse by Cullen Bunn, Iban Coelle, Matt Yackey, and Joe Caramagna. The story saw Eddie Brock recruited into the plainly named Resistance, a multiversal squad of Venom-possessed superheroes battling against the Poisons. The Poison hive was capable of fusing with and overwhelming Symbiotes for their own use, but this didn’t threaten every symbiote in existence as much as it did every version of Venom, specifically. The story followed Venomized versions of Captain America, Deadpool, Old Man Logan, and other Marvel heavy hitters as they teamed up with a single Carnage to save their kind.RELATED: Who is the Venom-Verse’s Agent Venom – And How Can She Possibly Stop Carnage?RELATED: Carnage Is Getting Too Strong For Marvel’s Own Good
