Venom is Back with Hasbro's Spider-Man Retro Marvel Legends Line

Get ready for some wallcrawling mayhem as the infamous symbiotic villain from the world of Spider-Man has returned to Hasbro 

We Are Venom! That is right, Spider-Man better watch out as Hasbro has surprised fans with a brand new Marvel Legends release. Debuting as part of the Retro Spider-Man Marvel Legends line and for the 85th Anniversary of Marvel Comics, Venom has returned. At long last, a general release of Venom has finally joined the popular card back line. Spider-Man fans have seen the arrival of Eddie Brock in this line before, but he was a Hasbro Pulse Con exclusive and featured Spider-Man: The Animated Series red and blue cel-shading. 

This version takes Venom back to more of his signature Marvel Comics roots, with two iconic head sculpts, including one that is from the legendary comic run by Todd McFarlane. There are some returning swappable parts from other exclusive Marvel Legends releases here, but everything is just better on a card back. Spider-Man collectors will be able to find the Retro Spider-Man Marvel Legends Venom exclusive to Walmart for $24.99. Pre-orders are unknown at the time, but fans can expect him to release during the next Walmart Collectors Con. Surf the, surf the web!
