Venom And His Merry Band Of Symbiotes On Auction At Heritage
Venom Lethal Protector is one of the books of the 90's and two of the most important issues in the run are taking bids at Heritage Auctions.
Venom Lethal Protector was a huge deal when it was released in 1993. I should know; I was nine and spending all my free time that I could at my local comic shop and counting down the days until the first issue came out. The foil red cover is burned into my memory forever. Not only was this the first Venom solo story, but the mini also introduced a slew of symbiotes that are affecting the Marvel Universe to this day: Phage, Riot, Lasher, and Agony debut in #5. Both #1 and #5 are taking bids in a lot at Heritage Auctions today, both in CGC grades of 9.8. The lot is selling for $135 at the moment. Check them out below.
