Initially, when Venom shows up in Spider-Man comics we find out that he is a symbiote that is not from this planet. The real problem with this is that we have no idea where it came from at first. Due to being a symbiote, it needs a host to truly survive. This can be any living being but symbiotes like this tend to work best with humans. However, the host needs to be a fit for the symbiotes or they won’t properly bond with them. These symbiotes come with their own specific set of abilities that are sometimes similar but will differ too.
For Venom, it is super-strength, senses, and speed. Yet he also has a lot of the same powers as Spider-Man while being nearly immortal. His species is from the planet Klyntar, which is filled with other symbiotes. Yet they do not always need a host there. Though Venom does need to bond with its host, it can still enhance the person’s own powers and/or desires. This works with all the Klyntar symbiotes too. Venom, more than most, can control his movements and escape from hosts he does not work well with. Venom might have started out as a great villain, but today he’s a very popular antihero.
