Venom #1- As far as new Venom series’ go, this one actually has a strong start and is pretty well handled as a first issue considering I don’t think a lot of Venom fans might be caught up with all the Flash Thompson shenanigans in the current Spider-Man continuity. I’m fairly curious as to how long Tony Moore will stick with the title as regular artist, but his style complements the tone of the book and helped to make this a pretty solid read. Something new for a fairly stale character, so hey that never hurts. B+
