All-New Venom (2024) #2

Jan 8, 2025

As someone who has never been particularly drawn to Venom, I find the whodunit approach in this series refreshingly engaging, presenting a novel take on Venoms origin story. While the initial goofiness and the convenience of the confrontations didn't entirely win me over, the sheer thrill of the action and the unfolding mystery have me eagerly anticipating future developments. Who is the new Venom? This question alone makes the series a compelling read.

Though some character interactions initially seemed odd, the overall story was ultimately enjoyable. The portrayal of the Black Knight initially seemed off but made sense in the context of the complete story. This issue was definitely a fun read and sets the stage well for the upcoming arc. The cliffhanger at the end is particularly exciting, leaving me eager for the next installment!
