Meet the Anti Venom | Movie News
After the travesty that was Venom in SPIDER-MAN 3, the character needed some kind of reboot, something to restore his credibility. To think, that those who aren’t familiar with the comics, which is most people who saw the film, thought Venom to be this whiny, weak, secondary character, vanquished in twenty minutes. Now, writer Dan Slott and artist John Romita Jr. are trying to do Venom some justice—sort of. They’re the creators behind Anti-Venom, a new symbiote who looks like a cross between the old Venom and the CLOVERFIELD monster (wow, remember the days of endless speculation about what that monster looked like? It’s strange being able to reference casually now). EW.com has nabbed the exclusive first look, so click on those violent claws to check out Anti-Venom in his fully realized, vile self. And let the speculation for SPIDER-MAN 4 begin.

Extra Tidbit: Anti-Venom will be part of a six-issue arc called SIX WAYS TO DIE.

And as any longtime Marvel fan can tell you, this is just another tired attempt to "reinvent" a Spider-Man villain, and like all other such efforts it will last a year at most before fan demand and gradual editorial recognition of the lousiness of the idea in the first place...

I do know he was in Civil War and was supposed to be the old Scorpion. Can anyone correct me or elaborate?

Also, what's with the comic books news being posted on this movie site, while you refuse to post TV stuff because it's a movie site
In addition, not everyone reads comics/watches cartoon/plays with Marvel toys, so not everyone knows who Venom is.

It's actually pretty sad that most of Spiderman3's audience had never heard of Venom. HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW WHO VENOM IS!?!?!?!?!
The purpose behind Anti-Venom's conception is pretty disheartening. Oh well.
