Marvel Knights Spider-Man #2
This volume collects the conclusion of the Marvel Knights Spider-Man series, pitting Peter Parker against a new, more brutal Venom. The symbiote bonds with Angelo Fortunato, a wealthy and unstable young man who becomes a far more dangerous threat than Eddie Brock ever was. Mark Millar and Terry Dodson deliver a gritty, street-level take on Spider-Man's classic rogues gallery.
"Venomous Part One" kicks off with Spider-Man caught in a web of escalating chaos: New York’s finest are closing in on his secret identity, while a $5 million bounty draws every crackpot and criminal to the Daily Bugle. With Aunt May still missing, Peter turns to Osborn and the psychic Rachel Summers—only to find no answers, just a chilling dread. Meanwhile, Eddie Brock’s unexpected redemption leads him to auction off the Venom suit, igniting a mad scramble among every villain with a taste for power. Written by Mark Millar and illustrated by Terry Dodson, with inks by Rachel Dodson and colors by Avalon's Ian Hannin, this issue’s cover by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson captures the madness perfectly.
In "Venomous Part One," Eddie’s arrival stirs unease as Peter grapples with Mary Jane’s hidden financial struggles and a shocking $5 million bounty on Spider-Man’s identity. With Doc Ock on the loose and the police eager to claim the reward, Spider-Man must dodge both a rampaging foe and the very people meant to protect him—before the mask comes off for good.
In "Venomous Part Two," Peter Parker is caught in a web of escalating chaos as New York’s finest close in on his secret identity, while crackpots swarm the Daily Bugle chasing a $5 million reward. With Aunt May still missing and no leads from Osborn or psychic Rachel Summers, Peter’s desperation grows—especially when Eddie Brock, claiming redemption, auctions off the Venom suit to the highest bidder, drawing every villain in the city eager to wear it.
In "Venomous Part Three," Spider-Man grapples with the fallout of a devastating lie and a public reckoning, seeking clarity amid chaos. As Peter attends his high school reunion, the new Venom—Eddie and Angelo in a twisted alliance—targets his former classmates, forcing Spider-Man to confront the past he thought he’d left behind.
In "Venomous Part Four," Spider-Man faces off against the relentless new Venom, pushing his limits as the symbiote suddenly abandons its host in search of a stronger bond. With the weight of the Bugle’s prize money in hand, Peter spins a clever scheme to silence J. Jonah Jameson’s relentless crusade, then uses the funds to help the Vulture’s grandson. As Aunt May’s captor reaches out, Peter must navigate a web of danger and deception—before the next move is made.
