Spider-Man Vs. Venom #[nn]
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.
