Sometime in the 1990s. Eddie Brock and the symbiote hate Peter Parker, but they also despise anyone who pushes others around! So they confront the villainous heavyweight Rhino as Venom during a presentation at the high-security prison Vault. However, in the chaos, Zebediah Killgrave, aka Purple Man, merges with a part of the symbiote, causing Venom to lose substance. And patience. A new volume full of retro action featuring Venom as a deadly protector, brought to life by Venom co-creator David Michelinie and artist Gerardo Sandoval.
