Venom: Spider-Man’s Dark Reflection

The black suit gave Spider-Man a bold new look, but the story behind it soon became much more complicated. In this episode of The Spidey Show, we explore the alien symbiote, its connection to Peter Parker, and how it eventually became linked to Eddie Brock and the powerful antihero known as Venom. Why does Venom feel like more than another supervillain? We look at the ways he mirrors Spider-Man, the different comic and movie versions of the character, and the uneasy line between hero, villain, and something in between.
