Item description from seller

The format is approximately 6.625 inches by 10.125 inches. Unpaginated (28 pages plus covers). In a plastic sleeve. Mike Costa is an American comic book and television writer. His first published work was 2008's The Secret History of the Authority: Hawksmoor with artist Fiona Staples for WildStorm. He also wrote Resistance, a comic book series based on the Resistance video games. Costa has written Transformers for IDW. Costa is currently writing IDW Publishing’s G.I. Joe: Cobra and Blackhawks for DC Comics. His work on the GI Joe franchise was critically acclaimed and lauded by Brian K. Vaughan as an example of a licensed comic equal in quality to mainstream or creator-owned works. He began writing for the FOX TV show Lucifer in its first season, and became a producer after it moved to Netflix during the fourth season. Costa wrote the five-issue limited series Venom: First Host (October to November 2018). The venom Symbiote recently spawned, and, under the supervision of Liz Allan, Alchemax had been charged with the protection of its alien offspring until Venom feels it is ready for the outside world. But Liz has designs of her own for the creature, and has already allowed her scientists to study it without Brock's consent, prompting him and his symbiote to lash out. Leaving the Alchemax Headquarters o cool down, venom was ambushed in an alley by a skrull woman, another mysterious interloper --A Kree--stood against her, but claimed the venom symbiote belonged to him! Venom is the title of several American comic book series published by Marvel Comics focusing on the various heroic and villainous incarnations of the character Venom, which have usually consisted of a human host and amorphous alien being called a symbiote. The first incarnation of the character was the one created by the third and current human host to the symbiote (the first two being Spider-Man and Tel-Kar), Eddie Brock, and—since 2011—its fifth host, Flash Thompson. Beginning with Venom: Lethal Protector, eighteen limited series following Brock's adventures were published monthly between February 1993 and January 1998. A monthly Venom series began publication in 2003, following a new character, Patricia Robertson, and a clone of the original symbiote. The series concluded in 2004 after 18 issues. In 2011 another monthly series, following the adventures of Flash Thompson, was launched. The series resumed with vol. 3, vol. 4, and vol. 5 from 2016 to present.
