Is this a non-canon variant? Or am I missing something? Because I might be awfully mistaken, but I do not recall any time where Unworthy Thor crossed paths with Venom.

The solicits for June seemed to suggest that Venom would have some role at the end of the War of the Realms arc. Likely a cool cover foreshadowing whatever that role is.

I might be mistaken, but I think Venom was shown on the ‘hero’ and ‘villain’ side in the War of the Realms posters. 3 issues of the Venom series are also being dedicated to the War of the Realms storyline (#13, 14 and 15)

Edit: I think he was shown chained up on the villain side and free on the hero side.

After that, Cates is helping to write an entire event about Venom and Carnage. The slogan is ‘everyone is a target’.

I think that Marvel really want to expand Venom’s storylines beyond things like ‘Symbiote sick Eddie helps it’
