This is one of my favorite comics in the world. It is Marvel Secret Wars # 8 and it is the first appearance of the black suit spider man. The Black suit is a living organism called a symbiote which needs a host to survive. It latches on and forms a bond or relationship with its host. Relationships can be somewhat needy and dangerous and abusive and this symbiote is a 3 for 1 combo when it comes to these characteristics. It latched on to Peter Parker and started making him loose his mind and become more violent. Its greatest weakness is loud sounds so if you have a boom box you have the upper hand in this fight. Secret wars was written by Jim Shooter. The plot of the story is sort of like the hunger games. This character called the Beyonder gathers earths mightiest heroes and put them against earths mightiest villains on another planet called battle world. Who ever wins gets whatever they choose. After fighting in the battle peter tore his suit and used alien technology to created the venom suit. The suit is able to enhance the ability of the user. It is the ultimate steroids. the suit has had many users such as Eddy Brock, Flash Thomson, and John Jonah Jamason. Venom is an antihero because typically the user is good but the suit is not so whomever wields it must mentally fight from becoming corrupted by its power and influence.
