About this Collection

This collection brings together key early confrontations between Spider-Man and the alien symbiote Venom, reprinting stories from the late 1980s and early 1990s. It includes the first full appearance of Venom in The Amazing Spider-Man #300, as well as subsequent clashes that defined their bitter rivalry. The volume showcases the dark, personal nature of their feud, with Venom's unique abilities and grudge against Peter Parker making him one of Spider-Man's most dangerous foes.

Spider-Man Vs. Venom #1 (1990) kicks off with a high-stakes clash rooted in the past: the alien symbiote, once Spidey’s costume, has fused with disgraced reporter Eddie Brock, turning him into the vengeful Venom. Written by David Michelinie and brought to life with iconic, dynamic art by Todd McFarlane—both inks and pencils—this issue sets the stage for one of Marvel’s most enduring rivalries, with Spidey answering Mary Jane’s plea to reclaim his classic red-and-blue suit. The cover, also by McFarlane, captures the intensity of the moment in striking detail.
