King in Black is the next installment of writer Donny Cates and artist Ryan Stegman's Venom saga. The event teases heroes such as the Avengers and X-Men coming together to stand against Knull, with Eddie Brock's climactic standoff with the terrifying villain looming in the background. King in Black is a successor to Absolute Carnage, which resulted in Eddie Brock and Venom releasing Knull from his cosmic prison, with the villain now making his way towards Earth for revenge.
Marvel has released its first wave of King in Black tie-ins, which include a team-up between former rivals Iron Man and Doctor Doom as they battle a Knull-controlled Santa Claus. January 2021's King in Black tie-ins feature spotlights for heroes (and villains) such as Black Knight, the Thunderbolts, Gwenom and Valkyries. The second wave includes Return of the Valkyries, along with one-shots and tie-ins for Black Knight, the Thunderbolts, Gwenom, Daredevil, Guardians of the Galaxy, Deadpool, Savage Avengers and S.W.O.R.D.
