Spoilers, Top Story

Marvel Comics and Symbiote Spider-Man King In Black #1 Spoilers and Review follows.

Kang and Watcher In Past Try To STOP Knull and King In Black Today?! Plus Scooby-Doo?!

In addition to the above variant cover this issue has a few more below.

Plus the main cover.

The most interesting parts of this issue…

…have nothing to do with…

…the Symbiote Spider-Man, but…

…the cat-mouse interaction between…

…Kang and his captive the Watcher.

It appears Knull may be all-powerful and all-seeing even into the past as…

…the Watcher seems to go down with Kang’s ship due to an overload of information; Kang was going to steal the Watcher’s memories, but in a table-turn the Watcher did that to Kang causing the explosion… or something like that.

As an interlude, on Earth, Symbiote Spider-Man fights…

…Mister E and gets an assist from…

…the Avengers’ Black Knight.

This villain happens to have the name of one of the main villains of the 2010-2013 animated series Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated: Mr. E.

All 52 issues are highly recommended by me and are available as a complete series set on DVD and Blu-Ray.

DC Comics also has a classic character named Mister E.

A nice alternate take on the word Mystery.

The book ends with a drifting-in-space Kang being…

…saved by old school Rocket Raccoon!

We also get a King in Black checklist for the event’s opening issues.

The Pulse:

Great story, great art, with teased intriguing connection to present day. 8 out of 10.
