Venom Gets A Red And Blue Suit In Marvel’s ‘Battleworld’

Venom #252 crop

It’s turning out to be a big day for Spider-Man suits, thanks to the reveal of eight tantalizing seconds of footage for the Spider-Man: Brand New Day suit. And now Venom – or a version of Venom — is getting in on the action with a red and blue suit of his own in Battleworld #3.

In the new series by Christos Gage and Marcus To, a group of characters from throughout the multiverse are brought together to battle, per the name of the planet. And one of those characters is an alternate-universe Venom created by writer Jordan Morris and artist Luciano Vecchio, who debuted earlier in 2025 in Spider-Verse: New Blood #1. The “new” Venom will debut in Battleworld, then spin off (no pun intended) into a back-up story in Venom #252 by Morris and Jesús Saíz.

In Amazing Spider-Man #252 by Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz, Spider-Man returned from Secret Wars with a new black costume that was later revealed to be the alien symbiote VENOM! Now, over 40 years later, a new comic book legend begins with the debut of a symbiote costume in BATTLEWORLD #3 this November that will return the following month in VENOM #252.

You can check out covers for Battleworld #3 by Leinil Francis Yu and Phillip Tan, as well as Luciano Vecchio’s design sheet for the costume. And you can also check out covers to Venom #25 by R.B. Silva and Cory Smith. AND you can check out other things as well, but that’s up to you.
