Jace breaks down Amazing Spider-Man / Venom: Death Spiral – Body Count #1, an epilogue issue that reframes Torment through his final moments after Mary Jane/Venom throws him from the rooftop. The issue gives added context to Torment's origin, his youth, his lack of experience, and the possibility that his connection-seeing ability may be hereditary, especially with the final tease involving his younger sister. Jace discusses how the funeral scene complicates Torment's family dynamic, whether the issue turns him from a mysterious horror figure into a more tragic character, and how the added explanation both deepens the villain and strips away some of his mystique. There is also plenty of discussion about the moody art, the psychological horror tone, the unanswered questions about Torment's physical abilities, and whether Body Count was necessary as an epilogue to Death Spiral.
