Written by Kyle Higgens and Matt Groom, with art by Luciano Vecchio, the series will be available in comic shops on May 14th. It was first hinted at last month in a comic posted before heading into the event.
“When Dan Slott and Olivier Copiel released Into the Spider-Verse in 2014, the Spider-Man mythos changed forever and completely took the world by storm,” Groome said. “Since then, creators like Donny Cates, Al Ewing, and Lamb V have transformed the Venom mythology in perhaps equally important and transformative ways. Colliding these worlds together is , a true honor and privilege. And it gives us the opportunity to push both the spider and symbiote communities to their breaking point so that we can see if they are strong against the oncoming storm or will collapse. It gives me pressure!”
