Renew Your Vows
It was revealed today that the Spider-Man crossover, titled 'Renew Your Vows,' that will take place during Marvel's Secret Wars event will be written by current Spider-Man author, Dan Slott. Slott sat down with EW to discuss the tie-in and had this to say about the original Venom host, Eddie Brock:
“You haven’t seen Spider-Man’s classic villains the way you know and love—I wouldn’t be surprised to see Eddie Brock as Venom in this story,” teases Slott. “Or Sergei Kravinoff as Kraven the Hunter in this story. There’s going to be a lot of bullets in the gun for things you wanted to see in a Spider-Man story that you haven’t seen in a while. This is the ultimate classic feel. This is the last Eddie Brock story. The stakes have never been higher for Peter Parker because he’s never had so much to lose. So he has never been this close to the edge. And these are the Last Days.”
Could this very well be 'the last Eddie Brock story?' Slott has been known to destroy characters (see Anti-Venom) and drastically change characters (see Agent Venom). Would he actually kill off Eddie Brock? We will have to wait until June to find out.
