Venom: Lethal Protector Prose Novel

The first of Titan's new series of original Marvel novels, starring Spider-Man's arch foe, Venom, in his anti-hero role as the Lethal Protector.

When Eddie Brock becomes biologically linked to a bizarre alien symbiote, the two share a common goal . . .

At first, they seek to squash their arch-foe, Spider-Man. After repeated attempts, Venom reaches an uneasy truce with the web-spinner. Brock leaves New York and heads west to San Francisco, the city of his birth, eager to put trouble behind him.

Trouble has different ideas.

Brock commits himself to becoming a defender of the innocent, but he's a six-foot-three-inch, 260 lb. figure with bulging muscles and fangs like a shark. Venom quickly draws attention-first from a furious Spider-Man, who's certain Brock has broken his word, then from a team of armored enemies who set out to kill the "Lethal Protector."

Venom joins forces with the web-spinner, only to face an even deadlier threat-five trained killers, each wearing a symbiotic suit like Brock's.

These are the Spawn of Venom, and they're out for blood.
