New York, NY— December 17, 2025 — This February, Spider-Man, Venom and Carnage are caught in a DEATH SPIRAL, a new crossover spinning out of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, VENOM, and EDDIE BROCK: CARNAGE. Written by three of today’s acclaimed Spider-Man and symbiote storytellers—Joe Kelly (Amazing Spider-Man), Al Ewing (Venom), and Charles Soule (Eddie Brock: Carnage)—and drawn by Ed McGuinness, Carlos Gómez, and Jesús Saíz, the saga begins in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN/VENOM: DEATH SPIRAL #1, a special one-shot in February, and continues in issues of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN and VENOM through April. Today, fans can learn about March’s DEATH SPIRAL chapters, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #23-25 and VENOM #255.
SPIDER-MAN returns to Earth just in time to face CARNAGE, who’s just discovered Spider-Man’s secret identity in the mind of his newest host, EDDIE BROCK! When Spider-Man and Venom team up against the killer symbiote, another shocking secret is revealed as PETER PARKER discovers that MARY JANE is the ALL-NEW VENOM! It’s a collision course of drama and danger that explodes with the arrival of TORMENT, a mysterious serial killer who will connect all three of them in a web of death. No one is safe as Spider-Man, Venom and Carnage join forces to figure out who TORMENT is and stop his killing spree against their loved ones before it’s too late!
