Marvel Comics is set to unleash a chilling confrontation between Venom and one of the most underrated villains in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Purple Man. In the upcoming retro series titled “Venom: Separation Anxiety,” co-created by Venom co-creator David Michelinie and illustrated by Gerardo Sandoval, readers will witness the menacing Zebediah Killgrave, aka the Purple Man, as he sets his sights on the formidable Venom symbiote.
While Venom has been wielded by various characters over the years, including Eddie Brock, Peter Parker, and Flash Thompson, few hosts have the potential to be as dangerous as the Purple Man. Known for his ability to control minds with just a few words, Killgrave poses a unique threat to the symbiote and its host, Eddie Brock.
In “Venom: Separation Anxiety,” set during the early years of Eddie’s journey as a hero, readers will witness Killgrave’s sinister plot to slowly seduce the Venom symbiote away from Eddie by warping its mind. This marks the first time that the symbiote will face such a terrifying manipulation, setting the stage for a gripping and intense confrontation.
While Killgrave may not possess formidable physical prowess, his ability to control minds makes him one of the most dangerous foes in the Marvel Universe. With the Venom symbiote under his control, Killgrave becomes an almost unstoppable force, capable of manipulating anyone he desires and overpowering those who oppose him.
For Eddie Brock, the threat posed by Killgrave is unlike anything he’s faced before. As the symbiote’s chosen host, Eddie must confront the horrifying possibility of losing control over Venom and witnessing its corruption at the hands of the Purple Man. With each encounter, Killgrave gains more power while Eddie grows weaker, presenting a daunting challenge for the Lethal Protector.
As Marvel takes readers back to Eddie’s early days as Venom, “Venom: Separation Anxiety” promises to deliver a gripping tale of suspense, action, and psychological warfare. With the King in Purple looming as a formidable adversary, Eddie Brock must find a new approach to combat the insidious threat posed by the Purple Man and protect the world from the potentially unstoppable villain.
