Together, they will push Eddie and Dylan Brock to their limits — and as everything Dylan has come to know and love unravels around him, he begins to realize the terrible truth about his new "other."

Ravenously hungry and craving adrenaline to satiate its appetite, the symbiote seeks out people experiencing intense, base emotions such as rage, jealousy and hatred. As it cuts a bloody swath toward civilization through Canada's northern regions, it sets its sights on a short, hairy guy with a bad temper: the X-Men's Wolverine! And as the action moves to New York City, Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four are forced to play damage control as not one but two bloodthirsty Venom creatures cause havoc! Heeere's Eddie!
