Spider-Man: Les Incontournables #1 (2007) kicks off with a chilling twist: Spider-Man’s old alien costume has fused with reporter Eddie Brock, giving rise to a new Venom who blames the web-slinger for his downfall. Written by David Michelinie and brought to life by Todd McFarlane’s bold art and inks, this prologue sets a dark, intense tone—complete with Bob Sharen’s vivid colors and Lucia Truccone’s sharp lettering—while covering the moment MJ urges Spidey to return to his classic blue and red suit, finding the black one too unsettling.
