Origin of Codex. Ryan Stegman variant cover.
Venom #29 is part of Donny Cates and Luke Ross's run on Venom Vol. 4, the storyline that reshaped symbiote mythology across Marvel continuity. This issue carries the origin of Codex, making it a book-level key across every cover of the print run. The C cover, by Ryan Stegman, is a natural companion piece for collectors who followed the Cates run from the beginning: Stegman was the architect of the series' visual identity from issue one, and his variant here lands within the same arc where that mythology pays off.
Ryan Stegman's cover work on the Cates Venom run set the tone for one of Marvel's most talked-about symbiote stories in years. His variant covers for the run were produced alongside his interior contributions to the early issues, and his distinct linework and compositional energy carried through the entire tenure. Having a Stegman cover on a key issue from that same run gives the book a coherent identity as both a story document and a cover collectible.
The issue ships as a standard single with a cover price of $3.99, interior art by Luke Ross, and writing by Donny Cates. It is a first printing, raw and ungraded.
