Marvel Comics has released its solicitation information for titles going on sale in February 2020, including Venom #23, by Donny Cates and Mark Bagley. A continuation of the creative team's "Venom Island" storyline kicking off next month, the solicit teases the issue is the start of the build-up to the next major symbiote-centric event in the Marvel Universe.
