Extreme Venomverse #1 is a great barometer of how a similar story can change with minor tweaks. Read Full Review
Extreme Venomverse #1 is an exciting start to a new way to celebrate Venom. It promises big swings with new takes on Venom and the start of a bigger story to keep coming back for. Read Full Review
Extreme Venomverse #1 is surprisingly grounded and humble for a comic featuring a character named "Samurai Venom." The writing team avoids the easy route and instead uses the multiverse to offer interesting new perspectives on familiar characters. Read Full Review
As far as collections of short stories from strange settings go, Extreme Vennonverse #1 does a great job of showing how diverse the symbiotic antihero can be. I for one can't wait to see what weird wonders these talented teams will weave us in the next installment. Read Full Review
This should be a playground to explore new facets of the character and break some new ground, but it all largely feels like retread of things we've already seen before. Read Full Review
A familiar Venom story re-told in such an elegant way. And the different art styles worked so well. Loved all of it.
The overall premise--get a load of *yet more* variants!--doesn't do anything for me. I'm also tired unto death of the "enough origin, jump through this portal into a Big Dumb Event" ending that 2 of the 3 strips get saddled with.
But beyond those structural objections, I found plenty to enjoy here. Marvel's been throwing a lot more creative firepower at its anthologies in the last couple of years, and there's impressive art, character development, and world-building spread across all these strips.
