Do we need another reboot from Marvel right now?
If you thought no way! You wouldn’t be alone but that’s exactly what we’re getting in May with Marvel’s Fresh Start. It’s the new initiative that will give us new series, new directions and most importantly new creative teams and the entire Spider-verse will be affected.
Marvel announced that Danny Cates (Dr. Strange and Thanos) will take over writing duties and Ryan Stegman (Spider-Man: Renew your vows) will be doing the art for the new book. Personally I like Stegmans art style and I’m looking forward to his work on Venom on a regular basis.
Stegman sat down with ComicBook to talk about his new Venom project and to give everyone a few hints about Eddie’s brand new baddie
“It’s unlike any foe Eddie, or the symbiote has ever faced” and “It’s something that’s incredibly old, and unbelievably powerful with ties to not only the symbiote’s dark past but with the Marvel Universe itself. This is a horror story thousands of years in the making.”
With Spidey hitting issue #800 and being Marvel’s image while promoting Fresh Start, there’s a really good chance that Peter’s whole world will go thru some changes starting in May. Even though we are getting some exciting new #1’s with Fresh Start, we also get the LEGACY count as dual numbering for each issue.
