Details

Medusa used to be a star. From girlhood stage and screen appearances, she grew up to write the ultimate break-up album. She has been castigated, diminished and demonised for it ever since. Percy wants to be a hero. But abandoned by his girlfriend, his life turns inwards in reality and outwards to an internet community ready to encourage his rage into hatred and violent anger. Venom brings them together in the familiar shape of the Medusa myth but turns the narrative on its head - questioning the monstrousness of the Gorgon and how heroic an act her murder truly is.
