Queen In Black: The Light and the Dark

Hela casts her shadow over Venom, Thor and more of Marvel’s heroes!

After his failed bond with Carnage, Eddie Brock is languishing in a jail cell as Hela begins her assault on Earth. Eddie desperately wants to get back to Venom — but without a symbiote, how will he escape?! Meanwhile, Beta Ray Bill is the only hero in Midgard who even remembers Hela as the Goddess of Death — but does that mean he can help his team to counter a Queen in Black? And Tony Stark dons his new Black Metal Armor as the ultimate weapon against Knull, God of the Void — but does he have command of his own squad? The fate of the world hangs in the balance between the Defenders of light and dark! But while the world has forgotten the original God of Thunder, Hela has plans for Sigurd Jarlson, the very mortal Thor!
