KnullKnull is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with Venom and Carnage, and later retroactively established as an unseen enemy of Thor and the Silver Surfer, as he was behind Gorr the God Butcher and his mission to hunt down and kill various ...https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Knull_(character)
Inside, Knull made a home for himself in the head of the Celestial he killed. There, he created the first sword-shaped symbiotes from his own form and developed into the god of the forge. Those earliest symbiotes were far from perfect in those early days and still retain a fear of fire from their violent creation.
The symbiote that would later be known as Venom is an alien parasite created by the dark elder god Knull and cast into exile by the rest of its kind. After Knull's imprisonment, the symbiote was taken by Kree scientists and bonded to Tel-Kar, but had its memories sealed upon being separated from him.
Carl Brock's appearance in Amazing Spider-Man #375 depicts him with a full head of hair, but Venom: Dark Origin and subsequent appearances depict him as a balding man with a moustache.
While in prison, Venom produces an offspring named Carnage. (He reproduces asexually, in case you were wondering.) Venom doesn't tell Eddie about it, and Venom and Eddie escape prison. Once they're gone, Carnage bonds with Cletus.
The son of Carnage, Toxin, was believed to be the most powerful symbiote ever created. The raw power of Toxin was so great that he was feared even by the King in Black, Knull, creator and leader of the symbiotes.
Symbiotes were originally created by an ancient malevolent primordial deity named Knull. When the Celestials began their vast plan to evolve the universe, Knull, seeing that his "Kingdom" was being touched, retaliated by constructing All-Black, the first symbiote, and subsequently cut off a Celestial's head.
In the comics — and the 2021 movie — it's pretty clearly established that on a baseline level, Carnage is indisputably more powerful than Venom.
The full first appearance of Venom is in The Amazing Spider-Man #300 (May 1988), after the symbiote bonds with Eddie Brock.
The Venom Symbiote was brought to Earth via John Jameson's shuttle. Upon Spider-Man's arrival, the symbiote bonded itself to Spider-Man enhancing his powers and abilities. He kept the alien for a while until Parker realized the symbiote was taking over his mind.
After being first introduced in Venom #4, the idea was mentioned again when Eddie was invited to join the Avengers in Venom #21 and again in this issue. With these consistent reminders, it's clear that Marvel wants to establish that Thor is the only hero that we know can defeat Knull.
Eddie BrockVenom. Bonding with an unearthly symbiote, Eddie Brock is given amazing powers and an unstable psyche.
In the comics, Scream is the leader of the symbiote crew. She has powers similar to Venom and Spider-Man, such as wall-crawling and web-swinging.
As far as comic books, animated TV shows, and two movies are concerned, Venom is the first alien symbiote from the Klyntar race (that's what they're called) to come to Earth as dark Spider-Man.
The bond between the Carnage symbiote and Kasady was stronger than the bond between Brock and the Venom symbiote. Cletus Kasady was also a serial killer and thought of as insane. As a result, Carnage is far more violent, powerful, and deadly than Venom.
The original Carnage symbiote was the first offspring of the Venom symbiote, spawned when it broke Eddie Brock out of prison. The newborn symbiote bonded to serial killer Cletus Kasady, merging with his blood to become nigh-inseparable from him, and Carnage was born.
The Hybrid Symbiote was considered the strongest of the Venom-spawn created at the Life Foundation. It was created after the Symbiote Scream destroyed the other four Life Foundation creations Phage, Riot, Lasher, and Agony.
Blue Symbiote (2) (Agony): In the comics Agony was one of the symbiotes forcibly spawned from Venom alongside several others by the Life Foundation.
Birth. Born from Carnage as the 1000th symbiote in its lineage, "Toxin" was feared to be the strongest and most dangerous of their race by both Carnage and Venom besides Knull. Shortly after being born, the symbiote united with police officer Pat Mulligan.
The Earth-15 psychotic Peter Parker and Carnage combine to become the "Spider", and becomes a member of Weapon X in Exiles. He is killed when Firestar explodes from her powers.
In nearly every iteration of Carnage's character, he is the offspring of Venom. The Klyntar, the race of aliens that the symbiotes belong to, reproduce asexually and can transmit their offspring to other hosts.
Following it giving birth to Toxin, Cletus began affectionately referring to the Carnage symbiote using female pronouns. He has more recently reverted to referring to it with male pronouns.
