Knull is coming.
The dreaded, powerful god of the symbiotes is arriving on Earth soon and he's not alone. He'll be bringing his massive army of symbioti𒀰c monsters and is the newest great threat to the Marv๊el Universe at large.
, , and of course , and now the fruition is at hand.Knull is not just making✤ his arrival, he's preparing🦹 for war.
What is King In Black?
King In Black is a crossover mega event that will encompass the ongoing Venom title,
a core King in Black limited series, several spin-offs and one-shots, and also take over other Ma𝓡rvel ongoing titles like Black Cat, Spider-Woman, S.W.O.R.D., and more. The main story is a five-part series in itself, though, out this Decem🙈ber.
"As far as event books go, this is the coolest, darkest, most heavy metaꦗl, Cthulhu dark horror thing I've ever been able to do," . "I still can't believe that Marvel is letting us go as dark and scary as we're going."
"After a campaign across the galaxy, Knull's death march arrives to Earth and, worse yet, he hasn't come alone!" re♊ads Marvel💮's official description of King In Black #1. "With an army of hundreds of thousands of symbiote dragons at his command, the King🍃 in Black is a force unlike any Earth's heroes hജave ever faced."
Who is involved in King In Black?
Obviously, the true Venom, Eddie Brock, will be the main protagonist of King In Black, but the cover to the first issue hints he won't be alone in the fight against Knull. As we've seen from the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:King In Black #1 preview, Brock will be joined by the Avengers, while the X-Men, and longtime rival Spider-Man are hinted on the cover, teamin❀g up in trying to defeat the dark god. It's possible in the main Venom book we'll see Bro🍬ck's allies grow from there, and it's also a possibility the events in Thor will bring more Asgardians to Brock's side as well.
Considering the tie-ins, we♐ can expect the likes of Captain America, Iron Man, Doctor Doom, Namor, Black Cat, Joe Fixit, and Jessica Drew. The Namor limited series is a flashback story with a teen Namor and Atlanteans encountering Knull and his forces decades ago.
However, a new force reveale🐼d itself to Eddie...sort of. In the Kree outsider Wraith faced off against Knull a🍨nd it did not go well for Wraith. Knull easily rips into Wraith and sends him into the great void of space.
While Wraith is floating, he encounters a great bright light, and this light leaves Wraith a message, and he takes it right to Eddie Brock on Earth. Now powerless, the Kree soldier only has moments before he faces the inevitable oblivion, and he𒀰 uses those moments to warn Eddie that something else is coming for him: a god of light.
We've known that Knull is a🍨s old as the emptiness of the univers♛e, if not older, but now this opposite force is coming to, hopefully, help Eddie and the rest of Earth in their fight against the dark god.
B🐼rock previously warned the Avengers about Knull and what he's capable of, so expect a colossal fight on a gigantic scale of literally light versus dark.

How does King In Black fit into the rest of the Marvel Universe?
With Marvel big events, it usually touches titles across the board, even if noꦓt directly involved. With Knull bringing his dark army to Earth and set out to conquer the planet along with the cosmos, Marvel's heroes (and maybe some villains) aren't willing to just roll over so easily. From Atlantis to New York to all over, there's a good chance Knull's ooze-y grip will reach out for it.
Considering everything we've seen and how ambitious and dark the series will be, readers should♚ expect major changes to the Marvel Universe, especially wh🌜en it comes to the Venom corner.
