You may know me from having written something you’ve read. (Lots of Star Wars & Marvel, including LIGHT/TRIALS OF THE JEDI, Daredevil, Wolverine etc. Also my own stuff - THE LUCKY DEVILS, EIGHT BILLION GENIES, UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY, SHROUDED COLLEGE…)
Not too shabby. Very glad people are enjoying this new Venom run. Stick around for Issue 2 - it gets even better.
A thing I choose to forget until every time I visit London: Visiting London sure does vacuum up money. Specifically, mine. Constant sticker shock. (And I live in NYC!) ((It’s great here, though. The value proposition is pretty solid.))
Turns out Venom came out two days ago. I have no idea what day it is.
Charles Soule@charlessoule.bsky.social · 4d agoSo pleased that VENOM #1 landed so well yesterday! To celebrate, I contracted with Venom Themselves to offer custom remarques on the issues at my webstore. It is going poorly! They are vulgarians and their art is mid! But if you want them (I just want them gone) go here: charlessoule.com/store

Huh - interesting question. Never done this before. Maybe something like: “I know you’re an elevator. I’m not sure you can read. But I’d guess you have a lot of time on your (non-existent) hands when your car is empty. If you CAN read, you could do a lot worse than my next novels!”
Erik C. Jones@ecfnj.bsky.social · 6d agoWhat's the elevator pitch for your next novel/novels?
On a train headed back to NYC after a triumphant release-day signing for Venom #1 at the magical @thirdeyecomics.bsky.social in Annapolis. How about a little q&a? Ask me anything!
Love what @charlessoule.bsky.social is doing with Venom. Eddie wants to try and do something different even if no one believes in him. In stores today. nerdinitiative.com/2026/10/14/v...
Venom #1 -Different Rules Down Here
Nerd Initiative review of Venom #1 from Marvel Comics

"Venom #1 is less about going back to basics and more about charting a new path, as @charlessoule.bsky.social and Tommaso Bianchi intend to give the Lethal Protector a new lease on life." #comicsky #Venom Read @cjwritesstuff.bsky.social's review:

VENOM #1 is out today! Buy fourteen copies, cue up Thin Lizzy’s immortal classic The Boys Are Back In Town, read the comic, and let me know what you think!
VENOM WENT TO NEW YORK COMICON! VENOM #1 out tomorrow. (Weds Oct 14!) Mm-MM that’s some good comics.
Here’s a quick peek at Venom #1 from #MarvelComics that comes out this week! W: @charlessoule.bsky.social A: Tommaso Bianchi #venom #spiderman #comicbooks
Update: have been stuck on a broken northbound train for approaching two hours that I have been informed will be towed back to the nearest station. I assume the nearest station will somehow end up being Artist’s Alley.
Charles Soule@charlessoule.bsky.social · last wk.Adios, NYCC, see you next year. This was a good, very intense one. Didn’t make it up to the main show floor even once. Other than panels, lived in Artist’s Alley the whole time. Or maybe “lived”

Look at these amazing authors & artists. I love our Star Wars publishing family.
Unfortunately, I'm under the weather so I won't be at NYCC, but please check out the Lucasfilm Publishing panel on Friday at 11am & the Mad Cave panel on Sunday at 1:45pm. Both have amazing creators & reveals! And don't forget about our Forbidden Planet signing on Friday night. Have fun without me!
Not going to NYCC, but in New York Friday and still want to hang out and Star Wars with me and many luminaries from the galaxy far far away, we’re doing a free signing event at Forbidden Planet from 6-8 PM! Check it out!
New York Comicon starts for me, oh yes, that’s right - TONIGHT. It’s going to be a long one and I’m not sure how much of me will remain once NYCC opens to the public Thursday morning, but I’ll do my best. See you in Artist Alley, at panels, and out on the town. Can’t wait!
We cut school to catch an opening day screening of RETURN OF THE JEDI in 1983. Didn’t get in trouble because the school principal *also* skipped school for the same screening - we cut a Mutually-Assured Don’t Rat The Others Out™ pact… :)
We do not know from which mouth The Word will come down upon us, but we accept it nevertheless.

Began the most terrifying month of the year by rewatching THE GUEST (2014) (which while not a textbook horror flick, is set at Halloween, so close enough.) Weird and charming picture by Adam Wingard, with a particularly good lead performance by Dan Stevens. 90s throwback delight.
I decided to live read Venom #1 for you and just spoil the whole thing. Out October 14 from Marvel Comics but why wait?
So Venom Unchained #3 is out today, and another way to think about is Venom #0 leading into my run, which begins with an all-new #1 issue on October 14. Hope you enjoy!
AIPT@aiptcomics.com · 3w ago‘Queen in Black: Venom Unchained’ #3 is an important chapter prior to Soule’s relaunch @charlessoule.bsky.social @juananramirez.bsky.social #Venom #comicsky Read @davidbrooke.bsky.social's review:
We're hiring! We're looking for a Writer and Narrative Designer to join the Fallen London team at a senior or mid level. This position is permanent, remote, and full time, which for us means 35 hours a week. #GamesJobs
They should do an Erin Brockovich-style gotcha thing where she finds out her own grandkids are being educated in this “incredibly effective” system.
