What If. . . Marc Spector Was Host to Venom?
What If... Marc Spector Was Host to Venom? features Marc Spector hosting the unpredictable Venom in an epic multiversal adventure that reimagines iconic Marvel heroes.
So many worlds, so little time. Infinite possibilities create infinite realities. Long have I watched Marc Spector cheat death in the name of the Egyptian god Khonshu. But what if Moon Knight was subsumed by a Venom from another universe?
Marc Spector is used to voices in his head. He's used to waking up disoriented, unsure what his alters, Jake and Steven, might have been up to. He's used to having an Egyptian god command him as Moon Knight, his avatar of justice and revenge. What he's not used to is staring into the face of a literal, out-of-body doppelgΓ€nger.
Another Marc, crash-landed from an alternate reality, begging for help? Yes, that is a new one, even for him.
But before he can really process anything beyond Khonshu's incessant alarm bells, it becomes clear this other Marc didn't travel solo. Some kind of alienβa symbiote named Venomβcasts off its current host and begins to merge with Marc, forcing Khonshu away from his chosen champion and claiming Moon Knight for its own. The formerly stark white suit that struck fear into the hearts of criminals now looms as a jet-black shadow over friends and foes alike. Marc's lethal prowess, fuelled by Venom's penchant for violence, carves a trail of chaos as they comb through the vigilante's torturous past.
Yet a sliver of hope remains. Finally free of Venom's control, the other Jake and Steven regain consciousness to find themselves in a strange reality, without their Marc, but with a strange bird-like god insisting that "they will do." Desperate, lost, and running out of time, the pair make a dealβbecome Khonshu's new avatar to track Venom's path of destruction, save this universe, and just maybe figure out a way back to their own.
