Stories

Spider-Island · 20 pages
Venom fights a giant mutated spider-creature, bringing it down with the help of Gravity of the Young Allies. He brings the monster to General Dodge's headquarters, where they discover that it is really a transformed Captain America. Meanwhile, Betty is trying to reach Flash because his father is in the hospital and may be dying.

Publisher’s description

Spider-Island tie-in! Flash Thompson is dropped into Ground Zero of the Infestation – but will he lose control of his emotions (and the Venom Symbiote) when his own father lies dying in the hospital? Tom Fowler joins Rick Remender for part one of Venom's foray into Spider-Manhattan!
