Venom looks to be coming back in a big way this fall at the House of Ideas, with a new 5 issue mini-series, called Venomverse. Venom who is now billed as the "Lethal Protector" looks top be a series focused on Venom travelling throughout the multi-verse, if the huge poster artwork is any clue. I personally loved the multiverse Spider-man adventures, so a Venom version of this could be cool. My opinion of Venom has softened over the years, I was as a comic book reader who lived through the 90's I suffered from a serious overload of Venom. However Marvel has handled the character in interest ways since then, so I'm genuinely interested.
Here is the official release from Marvel and some additional character sketches:
