Name: Edward “Eddie” Charles Brock; “Venom”
Age: 30
Place of Birth: New York City, New York
Height: 6’3”
Weight: 260 lbs. (due to atrophy and removal of Venom symbiote)
Eyes: Blue
Hair:/b] Reddish blond
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Side: Depends on the situation, but tends to lean towards evil.
Affiliation: Civilian
Education: College educated (journalism major)
Description:
Personality:
Unlike most of Spider-Man's enemies, Venom has little interest in wealth, money, or power: he only wants to kill Spider-Man. A major theme of Eddie Brock's villainy (or anti-heroism) is protecting the innocent. His usage of lethal force in his battle against crime is often compared with The Punisher. Though both view murder as an acceptable method of crime fighting, there are several differences between the two. Unlike the Punisher, who does what he perceives as his duty with emotional detachment, Venom makes little effort of hiding the obvious glee he experiences in terrifying and butchering those he considers guilty. The Venom Symbiote willingly threatens and actually eats those Brock deems guilty. Unlike the Punisher, whose sole goal in life is to track down and destroy criminals, Venom does not actively seek them. He is much more concerned about protecting the victims of crime rather than focusing solely on eliminating the perpetrators.
Eddie isn't always consistent with his methods, though some times he recognizes the inconsistency. He has shown himself able to perform heroic feats, ranging from saving people falling from buildings to throwing himself in front of bullets. This has been used against him, as some of his opponents know he will let them escape in order to rescue an innocent civilian.
Venom considers his methods and willingness to kill as a more efficient means of crime-fighting than his contemporary, Spider-Man. Brock is prone to extremely violent mood swings whenever separated from his other, showing none of the joviality displayed when fighting as Venom.
Because the Venom symbiote and Eddie Brock are two separate entities that have bonded together, Venom often refers to itself as "We" rather than "I." Venom is an amalgam of Brock and the Venom symbiote, creating a new being while keeping the previous two beings intact. Though they agree on many things (initial hatred for Spider-Man, protection of the innocent, etc.), they are not as in sync as Cletus Kasady and the Carnage symbiote, who refers to itself in the singular.
Powers/Abilities:
Brock is a journalist with skills in weight lifting / body building.
Venom: Eddie Brock was the first individual to truly bond with the symbiote, seeing as Peter Parker did not allow it to complete the process, gaining many of the same powers Spider-Man possessed in conjunction with the symbiote's natural abilities.
Symbiotic Costume: The alien costume is now grafted to the nervous system of Eddie Brock, it somehow absorbed the powers of Spider-Man during its brief symbiotic relationship with him. These powers were transferred to Brock, for as long as he wears the costume, and combined with Eddie's natural bulk they make Venom physically stronger than Spider-Man.
