"Venom" refers to a popular character from Marvel Comics, known for being both an enemy and sometimes an ally to Spider-Man. The character first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man comic series in the late 1980s. Venom is an alien symbiote, a sentient parasite that bonds with a host, giving them enhanced physical abilities but also influencing their behavior in often destructive ways.

The most famous host for the Venom symbiote is Eddie Brock, a disgraced journalist who harbors a deep hatred for Spider-Man. Together, they form the anti-hero known as Venom, who has his own sense of morality, often walking the line between villainy and heroism.

Venom has appeared in various media, including comics, animated series, video games, and movies. The character gained mainstream popularity with the release of the 2018 Venom movie starring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock, followed by a sequel, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, in 2021.
