Todd McFarlane cover & art; origin & 1st full app of Venom (Eddie Brock); Final black costume; the Thing app.
What happens when you pair a disgraced suicidal journalist with a vengeful homicidal alien? More than a recipe for disaster, what happens is you get Venom. Celebrating a milestone 300th issue, Amazing Spider-Man writer Dave Michelinie and legendary writer/artist Todd McFarlane introduce us to Venom, although he is not Spider-Man's ultimate archnemesis, he is perhaps one of his greatest threats.
The symbiote, who made its first appearance in Marvel Secret Wars #8, was spurned by Peter Parker after the hero realized its malicious nature. The alien then finds and envelops Eddie Brock, a failed journalist who harbors an uncontrollable hatred for Parker. Venom is the monstrous mirror of Spider-Man, a hulking grotesque figure with sharp teeth who is sometimes depicted with an abnormally large tongue. His physical attributes are equivalent to Spidey’s but, unlike his other foes, Venom has the ability to block his Spider Sense making him twice as formidable.
Venom has enjoyed a huge amount of success outside of the ASM, appearing numerous solo books throughout the years and in virtually every TV show or video game related to Spider-Man. Venom has also easily become the most popular movie character in what's become known as Sony's Spider-Man Universe. Venom: The Last Dance will be released in Oct., 2024, further ensuring that this first appearance remains a high-value collectible.
