A trio of free comics will be on tap from Marvel Comics for Free Comic Book Day 2022, and Spider-Man and Venom will be headlining the event.

A taste of what’s to come

According to Marvel Comics, there are going to be some ‘can’t miss’ free titles hitting comic shops for Free Comic Book day 2022. The publisher has revealed the first of the three, and it sounds like a winner.

Both Spider-Man and Venom will star in the comic, which will set up events to come in both the new run of Amazing Spider-Man, and Venom’s book.

Look for Spider/Venom #1 in comics shops on Free Comic Book Day 2022, May the 7th. The book should be available in most comic shops, but it’s probably best to ask at your local shop ahead of time, just to make sure they’re participating.
