Résumé: Picking up from the debut issue's cataclysmic cliffhanger, Knull has indeed arrived on Earth with his armies of ravenous symbiotes, quickly sweeping across New York City and over the heroes' initial line of defenses. As the characters that escaped the opening salvo regroup and rethink their next strategy to stay alive and turn the tide of battle against the dark god, Eddie Brock has his own brush with fate as Knull tightens his grip on the planet, with desperate alliances forged and unlikely figures rising up to take their last stand in the face of the symbiote-fueled apocalypse.
