Top Developments and Milestones. Miles gets a new vibranium suit to help keep his new-vampiric bloodlust under control. Deadpool bonds with Princess, his symbiote-dog-daughter to keep her alive.
Book of the Week – Venom War: Deadpool #2 (Review score: 55 Points; 9 Characters). Deadpool fights fire with fire, or monsters with monsters when he rallies his horror-inspired allies to fight the symbiote invasion. They’re not thrilled about his unwelcome visit, but the monsters show their true colors when Frankenstein, the Living Mummy, Man-Thing, and Morbius all step up to Save Civilians.
Hero of the Week – Spider-Man/Miles Morales (Review score: 21 Points/3 Appearances; 7.0 Pts/App). Miles earns his fourth Hero of the Week and breaks 20 points for the second time this year. He continues his Team-Up with the Blood Hunters.
Antagonist of the Week – Mystique (Review score: 8 Points/1 Appearance; 8.0 Pts/App). Mystique gets her first Antagonist of the Year with the start of her new solo title. She is being tracked by Maverick and Nick Fury Jr. but the shapeshifter remains two steps ahead of them both.
New Characters. Scurvy, the Doctor Corina Ellis’ assistant at Graymalkin prison.
