Venom: Lethal Protector - Heart of the Hunted #[nn]

Venom crouches low and menacing on this 2022 Marvel collection, his massive black-and-white symbiote form coiled with predatory energy as a tiny spider scurries across the sandy ground before him — while shadowy hands reach in from the foreground, suggesting danger closing in from every direction. Paulo Siqueira's cover art captures the dual nature of Eddie Brock's fearsome alter ego beautifully, that wide alien grin simultaneously thrilling and unsettling. Heart of the Hunted promises a Venom story with real teeth, and this handsome trade paperback is a fine way to experience it.
