FOR VENOM: HE IS THE KING IN BLACK
During the series, Eddie Brock actually dies at 4 Yancy Street. In fact, Knull has invaded Earth with dragons and turned Earth’s mightiest heroes into symbiotes. Angrily, Dylan Brock uses his connection to the HIVE to free Cyclops, Human Torch, Invisible Woman and Thor. In King in Black (2021) #4, Cosmic King Thor fights Knull but is eventually defeated.
At the end, Silver Surfer arrives with the God of Light, none other than the Enigma Force. Soon, it leaves Surfer and heads to 4 Yancy Street. There, it resurrects Eddie as the new Captain Universe. In the end, God Venom defeats Knull with the cosmic Axe fused from Mjolnir and Surfer’s surfboard. With the symbiote army free, the Enigma Force departs. Finally, Venom is the King in Black.
