Debuting in the pages of “Death of the Venomverse,” Kid Venom was one of the biggest breakout comic book characters of last year, and with his first ever solo series launching this April, his future is only looking brighter. Marvel shared a first look at the cover for “Kid Venom #1.”

  • In the four-issue series, acclaimed Manga creator Taigami will bring his creation to the 616, where Kid Venom will interact with Spider-Man and embark on adventures within the main Marvel Universe.
  • Hailing from 10th century Japan, Kid Venom is a young hero named Kintaro who protected his village from mysterious symbiote attacks by embracing a symbiote of his very own.

What they’re saying:

  • Taigami: "It is an honor. I was a big fan of the Marvel Universe since I was in school, so this feels unreal that the characters and the stories that I came up with are in that Universe, and I still can’t believe it!"
