Carnage’s Plan and Kid Venom’s Role

In Death of the Venomverse, Carnage is on a mission to eliminate all weaknesses associated with the Klyntar species. By absorbing the powers of various Venom variants, he aims to challenge the mightiest Venom in the multiverse – Earth-616’s Eddie Brock, also known as the King in Black. To achieve this, Carnage must eradicate vulnerabilities such as fire, sonic sound, and the need for an organic host. Having already eliminated the need for a host and conquered the weakness to fire, Carnage is now just one Venom away from becoming virtually invincible. However, amidst this chaos, Kid Venom emerges as a unique symbiote hero in a secluded corner of the Venomverse.

The Manga-Inspired World of Kid Venom

Death of the Venomverse #2 features a mini-story titled “Kid Venom,” written and illustrated by Taigami, a talented manga artist. Set in 10th century Japan, the tale follows a small village preparing to confront an ‘Oni,’ a red symbiote resembling Carnage. As the villagers brace themselves for certain doom, a young Samurai named Kintaro swoops in, unleashing his symbiote with a chilling declaration: “Meal time.” The story not only adopts the tone and subject matter of classic manga but also showcases the authentic format, page layout, and art style synonymous with the genre.

Taigami: Bridging Manga and Marvel Comics

The authenticity of “Kid Venom” stems from Taigami’s expertise as a working manga artist. Taigami is known for their manga series, Unsung Hero, which revolves around an aspiring producer and a talented yet unknown singer striving for recognition in the music industry. Although the storyline of “Kid Venom” differs significantly from Unsung Hero, the fact that a manga artist is helming their own Marvel Comics storyline within the wider multiverse adds an intriguing dynamic for both manga and comic fans.

The Future of Kid Venom

“Kid Venom” in Death of the Venomverse #2 is just the beginning of an ongoing storyline by Taigami. Fans can anticipate following this character and their adventures throughout the event and possibly beyond. This extended narrative will provide ample opportunity for readers to familiarize themselves with this new Venom host, who has transformed Marvel’s iconic symbiote into a manga-inspired hero.

Conclusion

Marvel Comics’ Death of the Venomverse #2 introduces an exciting addition to the Venomverse with Kid Venom, a manga-inspired symbiote hero. This unique character, brought to life by Taigami’s authentic manga style, offers a refreshing twist to the multiverse-spanning event. With an ongoing storyline, fans can look forward to further exploring Kid Venom’s journey and witnessing the fusion of manga and Marvel Comics.
