WARNING: The following contains spoilers for King in Black #5, by Donny Cates, Ryan Stegman, JP Mayer, Frank Martin, Jason Keith and VC's Clayton Cowles, on sale now.

In the King in Black event, Knull invaded the Earth with his army of symbiote dragons and possessed Celestials, proving why he was one of the most terrifying and powerful forces in the history of the Marvel Universe. The dark creator and god of the symbiotes killed the Sentry, took control of major heroes and covered the entire world in a massive, planet-wide symbiote. For months, what remains of Earth's Mightiest Heroes have attempted to defeat the god of the symbiotes, but to no avail.

Thankfully, that all changes in King in Black #5, which stages a rematch between Venom and Knull. Only now, Eddie Brock is powered by the Enigma Force, and he uses his new abilities to create one of the most powerful weapons in the Marvel Universe by using his newfound power to merge the Silver Surfer's surfboard and Thor's hammer Mjolnir into an ax.

While Eddie Brock died due to the injuries he sustained after his first confrontation with Knull, the Enigma Force brought him back to life in King in Black #4, imbuing him with its power to transform him into the new Captain Universe. And in the event series' final chapter, Eddie wastes no time in rejoining the fight. As the issue kicks off, Eddie is reunited with his Venom symbiote, and he now glows with the cosmic power of the Enigma Force, the veritable God of Light to Knull's all-consuming darkness.

On the battlefield, Venom faces Knull, who is still armed with All-Black, the Necrosword. Venom opts to fight with a weapon of his own, but he doesn't create a sword with his symbiote. Instead, he reaches out with both hands, and he summons two powerful Marvel weapons to his side: Thor's hammer Mjolnir, and the Silver Surfer's board. With his new cosmic abilities, he then fuses the two artifacts together to create something new: a massive battle-ax with a glowing blade fashioned after the Venom logo.

King in Black Knull Venom Ax

Venom wields this ax in battle against Knull, and it quickly proves to be one of the most powerful weapons in existence. After all, it combines the powers of Thor and the Silver Surfer, Venom and Captain Universe. With this ax, Venom is able to slice through Knull's symbiote dragons like they were butter, and he uses it to cut the head off a dark Celestial with ease.

If all that wasn't enough, the weapon's blade is even able to pierce through Knull himself, and its properties allow Venom to rip All-Black the Necrosword off of the god of the symbiotes. With the villain separated from his main source of power and defense, Venom is then able to then dispatch Knull with relative ease.

Venom's triumph over Knull simply wouldn't have happened without this new weapon. In just a single issue, Venom's ax has proven to be the most powerful weapon in the Marvel Universe, eclipsing Mjolnir, the Ebony Blade and other cosmic artifacts. As the issue comes to a close, the weapon is dissolved, and Mjolnir and the board fly back to Thor and the Silver Surfer, respectively and the Engima Force leaves Venom. While Venom's ax may be no more, but should the need arise, perhaps the newly-crowned god of the symbiotes will assemble it once more.
