SHOCKED BY THE SINISTER SYMBIOTE! The "Death Spiral" event reaches a fever pitch in this game-changing issue! Peter Parker and Venom have been forced into an uneasy alliance to stop the serial-killer symbiote, Carnage, from turning New York into a graveyard. But the real shocker isn't the body count—it’s the bombshell revelation of who is actually under the Venom mask. In a twist no one saw coming, Mary Jane Watson is the new Venom, and she and Peter must find a way to work together before the hyper-lethal villain, Torment, finishes them both!

This stunning variant cover by rising superstar Ivan Talavera captures the dark, kinetic energy of the symbiote war. Talavera’s detailed, atmospheric style makes this one of the most sought-after covers of the 2026 run. Whether you’re a Venom completionist or an ASM devotee, this is the "revelation" issue you cannot afford to miss!
