Venom #11 continues to alter what we know about Symbiotes, especially modern characters like Sleeper and Dylan Brock. Venom is one of the best mind-bending sci-fi horror stories on the stands today. Read Full Review
Venom #11 takes the narrative focus back to Earth, leaving readers in incredible suspense after the dramatic cliffhanger of the preceding issue, while also hinting at further twists and turns that will surely keep you anticipating the next installments of both subplots. Read Full Review
It's kind of a shame that this new run on the character hasn't caught on to the same effect that Cates' had, it's far more inventive without pandering to expectations in any way. Read Full Review
Venom #11 starts a new chapter for Dylan Brock and the Venom symbiote that gets a little introspective. After the brutal fight and revelation from Bedlam, things aren't looking so well for Dylan. But there's still hope for him as the issue introduces a shift in the traditional dynamic between the symbiote and their host that can lead to cool things for the overall story in the next few issues.

Still great.
I don't know how I feel about the sleeper agent part of this, but I did like the stuff with Dylan inside the "symbiote mindscape" or whatever it's called. I thought this was more interesting than other issues V. has written in this series, although I still believe his content isn't really up there with Ewing's work on this title.
The Sleeper Agent looks kinda ridiculous, to be honest.
This issue puts some interesting plot developments on the table. And as per usual, it's drawn beautifully. But as has already happened too often with this volume's Ram V issues, I'm hearing lots of people talk about things happening and not seeing much actually happen. (I'll give full credit for the mindscape fight being things happening with a vengeance, though.)
This venom arc hasn't been doing it for me, but I think that's due to how choppy the pacing has been. We haven't been with Dylan for quite a while.
This one lost me a little. It just didn't feel as impactful as I feel they wanted it to be. It just felt slightly boring in some parts.
