Venom

When Spider-Man acquired a living symbiote costume, he had no idea it would later spawn a major adversary. Though often a foe to the Wallcrawler, Venom does possess some kind of morality—avoiding harm to the innocent and bringing down the guilty.
== History ==
Venom's origins can be traced to a race of symbiotes from the planet Klyntar. These beings merge with hosts, and the combined entity tends to have a personality based on both the symbiote and the host itself, though sometimes one side or the other tends to dominate.
One particular symbiote found itself accidentally part of the scenery of Battleworld, a pieced-together, alien world created by the Beyonder to test heroes and villains 
against one another, including Peter Parker, AKA Spider-Man. After a pitched battle, Spider-Man's costume was ripped to shreds, and his ally Thor mentioned a device that restored fabric.
Instead, Spider-Man inadvertently used a different device, which freed the symbiote. It immediately bonded to Spider-Man, providing him a sleek black costume and giving him notable new abilities. Instead of Peter Parker's web shooters, Spider-Man's webbing was now generated from the costume. In actuality, parts of the symbiote itself and never ran out. On top of that, his reflexes were even better than before, and Spidey could now morph the suit into any clothing he wished.
Unfortunately, the symbiote, having desires of its own, began sending Spider-Man out to web-swing and brutally fight criminals while Peter Parker was asleep, leaving Parker confused and exhausted during the day. The prolonged exposure began affecting Parker's mind. As the situation escalated, Parker discovered, to his dismay, that he couldn't remove the suit at all. In a panic, he sought out Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four, who used sonic waves to remove the symbiote from Spider-Man.
The symbiote escaped and soon found Eddie Brock, a newspaper reporter who had exposed the wrong man as the infamous killer known as Sin-Eater. When Peter Parker published his correct version of the story, Brock was discredited and fired, and never forgave Peter. When the symbiote bonded with Eddie, their shared hatred of Peter Parker and Spider-Man gave rise to Venom!
Venom's twisted hate of Spider-Man, and his brief time as Spider-Man's costume, has led to his powers continuing to mimic Spider-Man's. Venom has a warning sense due to its alien origin and can swing from building to building in a similar manner as Spider-Man, using "webs" generated from the symbiote. The symbiote can change its outer appearance at will. His physiology masks him from Spider-Man's own Spider Sense. Venom is also extremely strong and agile, contributing to its ability to go toe-to-toe with Spider-Man.
However, Venom has a couple of key weaknesses that Spider-Man can exploit. High-frequency sonic technology will cause the symbiote to flee, even leading it to break its hold on the host. Fire is also something the symbiote is deathly afraid of - he will cower in the face of flames.
