Instantly recognizable by anyone in the hobby, this was a hit right out of the gate, quickly became an iconic image of the variant comics modern era, and is what's largely to thanks for the entire trend of "Venomized" covers.
There’s just something about the idea of the Venom symbiote overtaking Mary Jane, and the slick cover swipe that Joe Quinones came up with that immediately resonated with collectors and became instantly iconic.
Be careful when shopping for this cover, as there are reprints of this though those have become valuable in their own right, as this comic’s prices continue to rise.
