Venom Separation Anxiety

Venom: Separation Anxiety is a trade paperback reprinting the four-issue comic book limited series, published by Marvel Comics from December, 1994 to March, 1995. The plot line features Eddie Brock separated from his symbiote costume. It stems off from a Spider-Man arc, also published by Marvel from November, 1994 to December, 1994. A video game based on the comic was released entitled Spider-Man & Venom: Separation Anxiety. Eddie Brock and the alien symbiote are now held at very distant locations from one another. His five spawns created by the Life Foundation show up and bust Eddie out, because they want him to teach them how to control their symbiotes. They also take Daily Bugle reporter Ken Ellis (disguised as Eddie's doctor) hostage. Meanwhile, the Venom symbiote also breaks free and escapes. It travels from host to host trying to find Eddie and rebond with him. Meanwhile, Eddie and Ellis escape, and as the other five symbiotes try to find him, someone stabs and kills Agony. The others believe the murderer is Brock and Phage convinces the others to find and kill him.
