Venom: The Enemy Within #1

In "Part One: Down and Dirty!", Venom dives into the sewers of San Francisco, where a sudden goblin invasion has the city on edge. With mayoral candidate Charles Palentine exploiting the chaos, Venom tracks the creatures to their hidden lair—only to discover a far more unexpected prisoner: Morbius the Living Vampire. Written by Bruce Jones and brought to life with gritty detail by Bob McLeod (pencils and inks) and Tom Smith’s bold colors, this issue sets a dark, urgent tone for the series. The cover by McLeod captures the menace of the underground threat in stark, shadowed lines.
