First Look: Spider-Man’s New Enemy Anti-Venom

Posted on Wednesday, April 30th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta

Anti-Venom

We’ve spent some time in the past sorting through Spider-Man’s rogue gallery trying to figure out which villain(s) might be featured in the next Spider-Man sequel (if and when that happens). But who is to say that the next Spider-Man villain might not be a totally new creation. Entertainment Weekly has a first look at Spider-Man’s newest comic book villain Anti-Venom, who will make his first appearance in The Amazing Spider-Man No. 568 which hits stores in August.

Discuss: What do you think of Spider-Man’s new villain? Could Anti-Venom be Spidey’s next big screen enemy?

    "Anti-Venom"

    This is a joke right? Did we teleport back to the 60's when comics were still creating mirror-opposites of characters already in their giant universe of useless characters.

    "We couldn't think of anything original, just reverse Venom's color scheme and give him "spines" and "spikes"."

    What about the Anti-Quesada?
  • Lloyd
    I just really wish they would use some classic villains.. Or at least Hobgoblin, any Roger Stern Hobby stories, please.
  • dan
    Hate to be a negative Nancey, but this design is fucking stupid. Shame on you Marvel, stop milking Venom.
  • dan
    Nancy*

    Seriously Peter, invest in an EDIT POST function. I beg you.
  • Christopher Marc
    Sam R. couldn't get Venom right, because you could feel his hate for the character...Spidey 3 was on the level of the last X-Men movie in it's badness...Screw Spider-Man 4 I want to see a R rated Venom movie in the vain of the first two Blade movies...you know less Xena-like

    Marvel needs to acknowledge that Blade was their first successful movie and wasn't PG-13.
  • M&Co
    Slow news day huh?
  • REAL6
    WTF is this BULLSHIT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
  • Agony
    Well, fist off they need to get a new director. Then recast Peter Parker and Mary Jane. Then use the Lizard (they've already introduced us to Dr. Connors). Maybe the Scorpion. Both are classic villains that are actually cool (especially when you compare them to Vulture, Electro, Mysterio and some of the others).
  • Taylor
    this is sad.
    sad for Marvel inc..

    what about Maddam Web or someone with a little more depth.
    c'mon? this is a terrible idea...
  • RedFoxCBR125
    wtff Its gotta be Lizard.
    It has to be.

    or at least Mysterio. that could be sickk.
  • Need an entire movie about THE RHINO asap.
  • I just laughed my ass off! SO LAME LOL
    Jokes aside, I also strongly believe Venom should look like the chupacabra
  • Matthew
    He looks like that Spawn monster thingy.
  • Captain Awesome
    haha Matthew thats it,

    He reminds me of that Spawn clown dude.
  • Jason
    lame
  • Steelo
    that's weak
  • Sauce
    No no...They use this Villian in the next movie and right at the final battle with Spiderman he peels back his mask and Poof! Tobey can fight Ashton Kutcher! Man what an ending that would be.

    /sarcasm

    Good lord I hated Spiderman 3...Can't believe I went to the midnight showing to get slop like that. Because of that I think they should Not make a Spiderman for another ten years. And try again.
  • Ghost
    If it was the Anti-Venom wouldn't he be a happy go lucky nice guy and Spidey's best friend?
  • Thomas Klem
    We need new villians/ideas; not old villians remastered. The "House of Ideas" seriously needs to rethink this dumb idea.
  • Brian
    WTF does anti-venom even mean?

    I'm just going to pretend that the spiderman movies stopped with the first one...
  • Hendo
    needs to be the lizard. The groundwork is already there for the Peter and Dr. Connors relationship.
  • the care bears shall inherit t
    for the next villian: carnage or nothing
    ofcourse it wud have to be rated R but who cares???
    R ratings keep out all the 12 year old girls who just wanna see Tobey Maguire shirtless!
  • kfizz
    I think the next will be lizard. Plus who will take the lead role or will it still be tobey mcguire. Plus it seems like they have gone through the main bad guys. Rhino would be kinda cool.
  • Pete
    The Lizard, with a guest spot by Rhino!
  • dan
    Awesome -

    It's not Clown, it's Violator fool. get your McFarlan's right!
  • C-Dog
    I'll be so disappointed if they don't use Carnage!!!!!!
  • Tyler Ethridge
    Anti-Venom? Wouldn't that be Spiderman or a good guy.....? I mean doesn't anti-bad mean good?
  • typhoid
    Give us some Black Cat / Felicia Hardy!
  • Anti-Venom??? ANTI-Venom? Geez, they didn't even get the original Venom to look half as cool in part three as he looked in the comics... And now they want to bring in some cheap clone?
  • Probably the most feasible idea would be covering the Conners/Lizard and mutation/Man-Spider storylines, with a little of "The Other" thrown in.
  • zakkkk
    they should do a complete redo of the movie series they do no justice to the comics they have the spidey personality all wrong hes still a shy little prick and mary jane is a moose so yer the decent one was 2 ecept for the fact fuck loads of people saw peters face FUCK ANTI VENOM
  • Coolness
    that is awesome!
  • sPIDEYsavER
    Not sure what is stuck up all of your asses, sure they are milking a popular character....so whAT? They add originality + a base that everyone knows, and no one said that he was the villain in the fabled "Spiderman-4", which is still a far off rumor. The design they used is a common scheme, you'll all eventually
    start saying " WTF?! Another Villain?? MARVEL BE MORE CREATIVE". Design a character yourself that is 100% original following the Spider-man theme and THEN you can bitch and moan about originality
  • kal-el
    why don't they have spiderwoman or spiderkid that will be pretty cool or they could try to make anouther super villain or make spidey join a hereo leuge
  • Troy
    OK I'll admit there is no way in hell that this character could ever come close to matching the original venom in coolness, but there still is one way I would welcome this character and that is if it is somehow Eddie Brock and he comes back and beats the shit out of Mac Gargan. God I have been pissed off ever since they made the symbiote leave eddie. Eddie Brock is the only venom. period. Oh and Spiderman 3 was possibly the worst movie and comic adaptation i have ever seen.
  • Christopher Marc
    What? Xena is f-cking bad ass (excuse my language) in fact, so bad ass that it isn't even a strong enough description for her bad assness. But anyway...I'm probably part of the 2% who didn't think Spider-Man 3 was a bad movie, geeze louise.
  • Poska
    Well,having Anti-Venom in the comic book is actually really really cool, and i looking foward to read it!
    but for the film.. I agree they didn't make the venom right in the last spidey film.I think Marvel should fix venom by make a venom movie which have a more brutal venom with bigger muscle first before making the 4th spidey movie
  • jay
