The Origin

Born fromLiving Abyss.

A symbiote older than humanity itself — expelled by its own kind, bonded with Earth's greatest hero, then cast aside to find a more willing partner in darkness.

  1. 01

    Klyntar Origin

    The symbiote species were created from 'living abyss' by the dark elder god Knull at the dawn of the universe. Venom's symbiote rebelled against Knull and was cast into exile, eventually reaching Earth via Battleworld.

  2. 02

    Spider-Man's Black Suit

    In The Amazing Spider-Man #252 (1984), Peter Parker unwittingly bonded with the symbiote, gaining a sleek black costume. Upon discovering its sentient, parasitic nature, he expelled it — leaving the creature with Spider-Man's genetic memory.

  3. 03

    Eddie Brock Becomes Venom

    Disgraced reporter Eddie Brock, ruined by Spider-Man's exposure of his false Sin-Eater story, shared a mutual hatred that drew the symbiote to him. Together in ASM #300 (1988), Venom was born — 'We are Venom.'
