InvestComics Hot Pick Spotlight – Death Of The VenomVerse #1

Death Of The Venomverse #1. Release date 8/2/23.
It’s hard to add anything to what we already said in our Hot NEW Comics Arriving On Wednesday 8-2-23. In a nutshell, this hot pick spotlight comic is predicated on its success with either a “meh” first appearance or the “big fish” first appearance, Kid Venom. As we stated in the main article this week, Kid Venom is set to make his official first appearance in Death Of The Venomverse #2. Will he appear on the last page here? If he does, this comic will explode in the aftermarket as the first Spider-Boy appearance did. This comic will most likely feature the first appearance of something/someone though.

Here is what we wrote about Wednesday’s new release; Death Of The Venomverse #1 in this week’s Hot NEW Comics Arriving On Wednesday 8-2-23.
Death Of The Venomverse #1 – As we say quite often on this site, most of, if not all of the new VenomVerse, GwenVerse, SpiderVerse, ANY “Verse” comic at this point, including many of the latest random Venom, Spidey, and Gwen comics, and anyone else within the Spider-Man universe comics is introducing new characters at an alarming rate. One of these characters will hit again like Spider-Boy or whatever his name is. The bounce uptick on that book was absurd. More absurd is the sudden downswing, but that happens all the time within the modern market of comics. These new characters are gassed up by so many sellers, then when they are finished selling at the premium, the spec price plummets. No substance as to why the comic commanded so much money in the first place, just a bull run for absolutely zero reason other than, it’s a cool(?) looking Spider character. We have a real idea as to why that comic should be a book purchased in a minute, but regular visitors to this site already know what we’ve just touched upon regarding the modern comic market, we’ve been saying it for many years. That all said, we could be heading toward the second part of the Spider-Boy spec market. This time with the introduction of “Venom Boy” or “Kid Venom”. Not sure what name they will go with, but it’s coming. The market is calling for this new Venom character to make his first appearance in the follow-up issue in Death Of The Venomverse #2. Here’s the thing, who’s to say he’s not on the last page here? Maybe previewed, a glimpse, who knows? One thing is almost certain, a new Venom-like creature will probably make its first appearance here anyway. You should get on this comic this Wednesday and definitely click that link to the second issue if Venom Child is to truly make their first appearance there. And here is our prediction as to what this is all leading up to. This is Marvel’s answer to DC’s Super Sons. In a big way. Marvel will eventually have the Spider-Boy vs. Venom-Boy comics all over the dang place. A possible next-generation thing. The constant battle between these two. That is what we are leading to. Will it lead to bigger things? Media coverage? Animated? A new universe having the two kids front and center? If that were to happen, having that first appearance Spider-Boy (Spider-Man #7) comic command the money it is, makes more sense. It’s hard to imagine anyone thinking along our lines as a reason to drive the price up.
