    Based on the next cover, it seems clear the enemies will do the generic "we must team-up to defeat the greater evil" thing, but you know what? If it's half as fun as this issue and if Shalvey continues to bring his "A" game, I'll totally dig it. An engrossingly dark tone, frenetic action and a killer cliffhanger makes this a must read for any symbiote fan and my favorite issue from the series in quite some time. Read Full Review

    If you've fallen off this series, you better believe this is the time to come back on. Cullen Bunn feels like he's really settling into the character and this resurgence of Edward Brock and the Toxin symbiote could be a large part of that. Together with Declan Shalvey and colourist Lee Loughridge this Venom team has really stepped up to the plate and have really brought their “A” games. Regardless of what happened before, or what happens after, this Toxin arc is going to be listed as one of the greats in the long history of everybody's favourite symbiote, Venom. Hats off you you, Bunn and Shalvey, this issue was fantastic. Read Full Review

    The Slayers look pretty damn awesome (and creepy) and seeing through their eyes is some kind of an alien digital read out. Fortunately it's an English so it's either man-made or being translated for our benefit. Basically it's analysed the symbiotes and classified them as the Apex predator and they are now what are going to be targeted to kill. (Hello Toxin/Venom team up a whole issue after they nearly kill one another.) Read Full Review

    After spending so much time trying to move out of the shadows of isolation Flash must now keep himself there to protect others who may get too close. With Toxin and the new alien experiments to worry about (although he's not aware of the latter yet) Flash must selflessly embrace solitude. Read Full Review
