Venom War Omnibus

The full saga of Eddie and Dylan Brock’s battle for the right to be Venom!

An acclaimed era of VENOM storytelling reaches its climax, and it has all come to this. Eddie Brock is Venom. Dylan Brock is Venom. They’ve both been on separate journeys as heroes, and each has seen terrifying glimpses of the future. Now they realize only one of them can be Venom. Their father-son feud will become everyone’s problem as past and present symbiote characters alike must take a side! Could it be the OG host himself — Peter Parker, the ever-Amazing Spider-Man — ends up back in black? As the contest to end all contests sends symbiotic shockwaves — and a plague of terrifying Zombiotes — across the Marvel Universe, the battle is joined by Daredevil, Wolverine, the Fantastic Four, Black Widow, She-Hulk, Deadpool, Silver Sable and more…including Jeff the Land Shark! But you can’t have a symbiote war without a little Carnage!
