Venom

This is the German-language edition of Marvel's symbiote anti-hero Venom, published by Panini Deutschland for German-reading audiences. The alien symbiote bonded with Eddie Brock, granting him Spider-Man-like abilities and an intense hatred of Peter Parker.

Few characters carry a name as iconic as Venom, and this Panini Deutschland incarnation — debuting in Spider-Man Special #4 in 1998, courtesy of Dan Jurgens and Reinhard Schweizer — brings that legacy to German-language readers in a Copper/Modern Age package that has quietly persisted for nearly three decades. With a catalog presence spanning 1998 to 2026 across titles like Der sensationelle Spider-Man and Avengers: Krieg im Zeitstrom, this version shares pages with heavy hitters including Spider-Man, Eddie Brock, Peter Parker, Otto Octavius, and Captain America — serious company by any measure. Eight appearances may seem modest, but for collectors of Panini's German Marvel output, this is a genuinely distinctive corner of the hobby worth seeking out.
