Black Widow’s new symbioteisn’t going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, this summer, their bond will strengthen even further in Black Widow: Venomous #1, a new one-shot which will “unleash Natasha’s full potential as a symbiote warrior,” as originally announced throughAiPT.

Written by Erica Schultz with art from Lucciano Vecchio, Black Widow: Venomous #1 is part of the lead up to the long awaited Venom War crossover, which will pit father Eddie Brock against son Dylan Brock in a battle which will have every symbiote character in the Marvel Universe picking sides.

“Now she just needs to figure out how to work with a weapon with its own drives and desires. Redefining Widow’s relationship with her symbiote, and setting the stage for her appearance in Venom War!”

“Who doesn’t want to write Natasha Romanoff? And with a badass symbiote, it didn’t take much to convince me,” Schultz says in a statement accompanying the announcement. “Luciano Vecchio’s art is so amazing. It’s been so fun to delve into Nat’s spy craft techniques, and you just may learn something new about her.”

Black Widow: Venomous #1 goes on sale July 31 with a cover from Leirix, seen above.
