As a child, Edward Charles Allan Brock was raised as a Roman Catholic in suburban San Francisco. His father was cold and unloving towards him because he blamed Eddie for his wifes death during childbirth. Eddie constantly attempted to obtain his fathers approval, though even after excelling in school, he only received half hearted encouragements. Eddie often stole things from other children, just so he could find these items to gain their friendship. 6 He also suffered from bullying as a child. 7In his teenage years he gained entrance to ESUs journalism program, fabricating an internship, and he romanced law student Ann Weying. 6 Though exceptional in athletics, Brock switched his major in college to journalism after reading an article on the Watergate scandal. Upon graduating, he moved to New York City, married Ann and as a member of the Associated Press, he obtained a job as a journalist for the Daily Globe. He proved himself to be highly talented, though even this did not get his fathers approval. 4Eddie in human form. From Success to Failure. Being a young reporter, Brock faced down the shadowy alien Krobaa,8 and uncovered illegal human testing at Devlin Mac. Gregor Pharmaceuticals, although threats on Anns life prevented him from reporting that. 9 He later began to suffer from severe anxiety, which was soon discovered to be adrenal cancer. With just months to live, Brock wanted to break a big story, and thought he had found this story when he was accidentally contacted by Emil Gregg, who claimed to be the serial killer Sin Eater. Eddie wrote front page exclusives of the Sin Eater, protecting his identity under the First Amendment, until a crisis of conscience and pressure from the police and his editor forced him to write an exclusive article revealing Gregg as the Sin Eater. Although that edition of the paper sold out immediately, that same day Spider Man captured and revealed the true identity of the Sin Eater to be Detective Stan Carter. Gregg was found to be Carters delusional neighbor, making Brock a laughingstock among his fellow journalists. Fired from the Daily Globe, he was forced to write venomous drivel for a tawdry tabloid. Ann left him, his father disowned him and his future appeared to be over. Brock blamed all of these problems on Spider Man, and began an intense physical workout program hoping to reduce the stress of his life. However, such physical exertions only increased his violent obsession with Spider Man. Although his body had been honed to near perfection, Brocks mind was reduced to an all consuming vessel of hatred. Birth of Venom. Venom is born. Some time after Eddies life took these drastic changes, and overwhelmed by his shame and the knowledge of his impending death, he began contemplating suicide. He decided to visit Our Lady of Saints Church to beg forgiveness from God for this mortal sin before doing it. As Eddie questioned his resolve to go through with his suicide, a strange man approached and said he might find what he was looking for inside. 1. Once inside the church, he was caught by surprise when the symbiotic alien costume, which had earlier been discarded by Spider Man in the churchs bell tower, attacked and bonded with him, drawn by his despair, adrenaline, and fierce hate, on which it fed. The symbiote bonded mentally and physically to Brock, whose rage and hatred toward Spider Man further corrupted it,1. Brock soon discovered that the costume gave him all of Spider Mans powers, adding its biomass to his already large frame and increasing his strength to levels surpassing those of Spider Man.

Through the symbiote, Brock learned a great deal about Spider Man, including his secret identity, and chose to name their merged form Venom Because thats what Im paid to spew these days1. Stalking the Spider. Brock taunted Peter Parker with minor assaults, such as pushing him in front of an oncoming train and then grabbing his ankle while scaling an Atlantic City building. The alien costume could cancel out the wall crawlers spider sense presumably by projecting conflicting frequencies upon Spider Mans brain waves. Venom finally made a bold move when he confronted Parkers wife, Mary Jane Watson, at their old Chelsea apartment. Although Venoms twisted sense of morality did not allow him to physically harm Mary Jane, Spider Man immediately realized the nature of this threat. Remembering the symbiotes weakness, Spider Man retrieved a sonic blaster from the Fantastic Four, and fired the blaster at Venom. Spider Man then discovered that the symbiote could not be separated from Brock because it had completely bonded with him. Spider Man rationalized that further use of the weapon on Venom might kill him and decided to relent. Trying to escape and rethink his options, Spider Man was caught unaware by Venom. He captured Spider Man and secured him to the inside of the church bell with a considerable amount of webbing. Spider Man narrowly escaped the bells crushing clapper before defeating Venom by forcing him to deplete his webbing supply, of which the alien symbiote was actually comprised. Before the alien could regenerate enough of its mass to become a renewed threat, Spider Man brought Venom to the Fantastic Four who imprisoned him in a sonic containment cell. The Fantastic Four then shipped Venom to the government super prison in the Colorado. Rockies called the Vault. A young Guardsman, Hugh Taylor, who had just been assigned to the Vault was fooled into thinking that Venom was a fallen colleague and released the gate mechanism, which imprisoned the criminal. Venom killed the naive guard and escaped to New York City. Later on, to avenge his son, General Orwell Taylor founded the armored vigilante team known as the Jury. 4While hitchhiking back to Spider Man in Manhattan, he thwarted the criminal activity of a small militia in Missouri. This marked the first time he used the symbiote heroically and demonstrated his soft spot for those he deemed innocent. 1.
