Rick Remender is taking a short break from the series with these point-one-issues consuming Venom’s life. Although Venom usually works alone, a one man wolf pack, he’s going to be fighting alongside some other Marvel anti-heroes. As Ghost Rider finds herself in some deep sh*t, she looks to Venom and Hulk for some help. Will the book have the same gusto without Remender? Probably not. But, they do have a pentagram on the cover, just so we know it’s badass. Below you can peak at the preview from Marvel Comics. read on for the skinny…

Hack/Slash has seen more directors than I really care to name, and today The Hollywood Reporter announced that Marcus Nispel is the latest name attached to direct the comic to film adaptation. On top of Conan, Nipsel has directed other questionable films such as the recent remakes of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday the 13th. Now this is likely to piss off some fans, so feel free to rant off in the comments.

There was not much about Spider-Island that I liked aside from the Venom tie-ins (probably because Remender didn’t mix Venom into the insane fray with the rest of the Marvel heroes). The Cloak & Dagger mini was fantastic, but other than that I’m happy it’s over, happy Remender’s more-than-impressive Venom run can continue on it’s marry way. Remender has not been given nearly enough praise for his work at Marvel with Uncanny X-Force and Venom consistently being two of the best books on the stands. Die-hard Eddie Brock fans were skeptical when the series began (many still are) but Remender really gets into the nitty-gritty psychology of the symbiote, and dives headfirst into Flash’s mind. This is a Venom like we’ve never seen before, and it’s a distinct pleasure every single month. Issue 9 is a great place for new readers to hop on board before the next big arc hits in December.
