"Agent Venom hits the town for some good, old-fashioned crime-busting--but crime busts back when Lord Ogre, leader of Philadelphia's underworld, declares war on the city's would-be hero! Cold-blooded killers crawl out of the woodwork to collect the contract put out for Venom's head--and when his secret identity is discovered, Flash Thompson needs all the help he can find just to survive. To complicate matters, a new symbiote-powered entity joins the fray when Flash's heroics lead to the inadvertent birth of Mania! But can this new danger be wrangled, and is she friend or foe?"--Page 4 of cover.
