Symbiote Spider-man by Peter David Omnibus

Legendary writer Peter David revisits Peter Parkers time in the symbiotic suit! Everyone knows the infamous living costume Spider-Man accidentally brought back from the Secret Wars eventually became the wicked web-slinger known as Venom but what happened before Peter Parker discovered its sinister symbiotic secret? A lot! When his girlfriend, the Black Cat, is the victim of blackmail, the darker-than-ever wall-crawler takes on that most mystifying of menaces: Mysterio! Then the Hobgoblin strikes, deadlier than ever! But where did Hobby get these uncanny new powers? Hopefully Doctor Strange can answer that question because reality itself depends on it! Spidey joins the Black Knight and Kang the Conqueror in a time-torn tussle with Knull, the King in Black! And another mind-bending trip puts him on a collision course with the Hulk! Plus: Peter David returns to 2099 to bond Miguel OHara with his own symbiote! And once there was another host that almost everybody forgot but Carnage remembers!
