Spider-Man: Birth of Venom #[nn]

In "Homecoming!", Peter Parker is reeling after MJ confesses she knows his secret identity. That night, his mysterious black costume takes on a life of its own, leading to a surreal sleepwalking trip through New York and a haunting nightmare. When Reed Richards investigates the suit’s alien origins, he uses a sonic blaster to sever the symbiotic bond, leaving Peter swinging home in an old Fantastic Four uniform with a paper bag for a mask. As MJ returns to talk, a new threat emerges—Hobgoblin has a proposition for the Rose. Written by Tom DeFalco and illustrated by Ron Frenz, with inks by Joe Rubinstein, colors by Bob Sharen, and letters by Joe Rosen, this 2007 Marvel issue features a cover by Todd McFarlane.
