==Biography==
===Sudden Arrival at a New Universe===
Eddie Brock was bonded to the symbiote known as Venom and together they became the vigilante known as the Lethal Protector. While in Mexico, Brock returned to his hotel room and laid down on the bed, unbeknownst to Brock, in another universe, a spell cast by Doctor Strange transported people from any universe who knew Peter Parker's secret identity as Spider-Man into his own. As a result of Venom accessing a multiversal symbiote hive mind, Venom became aware of Parker being Spider-Man and thus was taken out of its universe, and brought into Strange's universe, along with its host Brock. Finding themselves in a resort room different from theirs, Brock quickly sat up, and questioned his surroundings before turning on the television. Venom and Brock saw a report from The Daily Bugle where J. Jonah Jameson showed a photo of Parker and harshly criticized Spider-Man for his actions. Upon seeing Parker's face on the television, Venom took over Brock's body and licked the television.Venom 2 Post Credits Scene and the Future of MCU – The Hollywood ReporterKevin Feige Discusses the Decision to Put Venom in the MCU
===Returning to His Universe===
Brock then left the room and went to the resort's bar in an attempt to make sense of his surroundings. He conversed with a bartender and learned that he was in another universe where several individuals with superhuman abilities existed. Brock was told of Iron Man and Hulk's existence, as well as how an alien named Thanos sought to obtain the Infinity Stones and caused people to disappear. Brock dismissed the story as he believed all aliens had the singular desire to eat brains as Venom did. The bartender took offense at this, informing Brock that Thanos caused his family to disappear for five years.
Brock took sympathy on the bartender and expressed a desire to go to New York City and meet with Spider-Man. Brock stood up to leave while Venom suggested that they go instead. As Brock informed Venom that they would not go skinny dipping, the bartender reminded him that he needed to pay the bill. However, Brock was swiftly transported back to his own universe as a result of Doctor Strange's spell.
==Personality==
Eddie Brock is an inquisitive individual, seeking to learn as much as he could upon being transported to another universe. However, he is not extremely open-minded, reacting skeptically when informed about the existence of Iron Man, Hulk and Thanos and refusing to believe that an alien like Thanos would seek magic stones instead of eating brains due to his experience with Venom.
