Spider-Man and Venom are about to cross over in Marvel’s Death Spiral event, but it’s what happens when the smoke clears in May’s Venom #258 by writer Al Ewing and artist Carlos G\u00f3mez that could have the biggest impact on Spidey and Venom’s world.<\/p>\n

As readers likely know, Mary Jane is the current host of the Venom symbiote after bonding with it in a life-or-death crisis. She’s been operating as Venom for some time now, and despite her close relationship with Peter Parker, it seems the symbiote anti-hero still has some beef with Spider-Man.<\/p>\n

“THREE\u2019S A CROWD! In the aftermath of Death Spiral, Mary Jane Watson and Peter Parker have a long overdue heart-to-heart…but when the masks go on, Venom and Spider-Man have some unfinished business!” reads Marvel’s official description of Venom #258. “And one way or another, this is going to lead to a BIG change for Venom and MJ!”<\/p>\n

Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson have been unable to get it together as a couple for years now, with every reunion seemingly ruined by circumstances beyond their control, usually due to Peter’s secret life as Spider-Man. With their relationship now strained by MJ’s own secret identity as Venom, it may take a miracle to bring them back together.<\/p>\n
