C2E2 2023: 'Death of the Venomverse' Unleashes Carnage on the Multiverse

Announced at C2E2, Cullen Bunn and Gerardo Sandoval's 'Death of the Venomverse' sends Carnage on a Multiversal mission to kill all Venoms.

Spinning out of EXTREME VENOMVERSE comes THE DEATH OF THE VENOMVERSE

Announced today at C2E2, symbiote hotshots Cullen Bunn and Gerardo Sandoval are reuniting to bring the symbiotic ax down on the VENOMVERSE! Carnage has been building his powers up, extracting unique abilities from many villains throughout the Marvel Universe to the point of traversing the Multiverse with a singular goal: KILL ANY AND ALL VENOMS! 

The limited series will also include a classic tale in the vein of VENOM: LETHAL PROTECTOR by Venom co-creator David Michelinie. All five issues will release in August and be packed with more symbiote shakeups than you can wrap your head around! 

"It's been far too long since I've written any stories about Venom and company," Bunn said. "About Eddie, about Flash, about Andi, about Carnage. This story—this completely bonkers epic—feels like the right time to throw my symbiotic hat back in the ring."

"Returning to a Multiverse full of Venom symbiotes, maybe (but hopefully not) for the last time, I knew I had to do something big," he added. "Thus, the title—DEATH OF THE VENOMVERSE—was born. Perhaps that title is a bit of a threat for our favorite symbiotes, but I promise you it is not empty! Get ready for plenty of surprises, some heartbreak, and more symbiotes than you can shake a stick at!"
