New York, NY— October 24, 2025 — The King in Black is back! Knull made his long-dreaded return last month in VENOM #250 and will headline his first-ever solo series this January, each paving the way for QUEEN IN BLACK, an epic symbiote event coming next year. To celebrate the iconic supervillain’s resurgence, a new collection of KNULLIFIED VARIANT COVERS will hit stands in December. Drawn by today’s leading artists, these new pieces twist your favorite heroes into dark versions of the God of Symbiotes!
Emerging from the void during Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman’s seminal run, Knull became the comic book supervillain of the decade, headlining the 2020 crossover, King in Black. It took the combined might of Marvel’s greatest heroes to stop him and his symbiote army from conquering Earth. Now, he begins a new reign of terror, but first, he must reclaim his throne from a startling usurper—Hela, the newly proclaimed QUEEN IN BLACK! Follow his path of destruction to amass new power in KNULL, a five-issue limited series by current Venom scribe Al Ewing, rising star writer Tom Waltz (Wolverine: Blood Hunt, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and symbiote superstar Juanan Ramirez (Eddie Brock: Carnage).
Check out 19 of the 20 KNULLIFIED VARIANT COVERS and preorder them along with KNULL #1 at your local comic shop today! For more information, visit Marvel.com.
