The first and most well-known symbiote is
Eddie Brock as Venom is who most would consider the original character. Though the Venom symbiote was introduced in 1984, the 1993 limited series “Venom: Lethal Protector” was the first to explore Brock's history before he bonded with the symbiote.
Knull is an eldritch god of darkness and the creator of the symbiotes. Born from the primordial void that existed between the sixth and seventh cosmos, Knull claims dominion over the void and to be its avatar, but while he is a God of the Void he is not the primordial darkness itself.
The Riot Symbiote is one of the two main antagonists (alongside Carlton Drake) of the 2018 film Venom, which is based on the Marvel comic book character of the same name and the first installment of Sony's Spider-Man Universe.
While captive, the Venom symbiote was forced to give birth to five offspring - Riot, Lasher, Phage, Agony, and Scream - who were bonded to PMCs hired by the Life Foundation. When corrupt corporation Scarmore Inc.
For example, Venom gave birth to seven "children", and its first child Carnage had three. senses that extend over its entire surface, enabling hosts to "see" what is behind them or otherwise not in their line of sight (like a Spider-Sense).
Dylan Brock is the son of Eddie Brock and Anne Weying. When Anne bonded to the Venom symbiote, she somehow became pregnant with Dylan.
Blue Symbiote (2) (Agony): In the comics Agony was one of the symbiotes forcibly spawned from Venom alongside several others by the Life Foundation.
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.
The Venom symbiote's first human host was Spider-Man himself, who eventually discovered its true nefarious nature and separated himself from the creature in The Amazing Spider-Man #258 (November 1984)—with a brief rejoining five months later in Web of Spider-Man #1.
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.
Introduced in the three-part episode "The Symbiote Saga", a weaponized symbiote is created by HYDRA scientist Michael Morbius that first envelops Doctor Octopus before Spider-Man and Agent Venom separate them.
They rapidly age the symbiotes and pair them to people: Scream (yellow, female), Agony (pink, female), Lasher (green, male), Riot (grey, male) and Phage (orange, male).
The Life Foundation Symbiotes
Four of those symbiotes - Riot, Lasher, Phage and Agony - are grouped together here. Because they only appeared in a handful of Venom stories and never had much of a chance to stand out as individuals, it's tough to really rank one above another.
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.
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.
Knull, also known as the God of the Symbiotes, is one of the overarching antagonists in the Marvel Comics universe, serving as the main antagonist of the Venom comic book series.
Eddie BrockVenom. Bonding with an unearthly symbiote, Eddie Brock is given amazing powers and an unstable psyche.
Toxin is a red and black symbiote.
Symbiotes are genderless, reproduce asexually, and generally produce only one offspring in a lifetime.
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.
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.
One of the most tragic and weirdest Venom stories is how the symbiote made Eddie Brock pregnant, and this pregnancy created more chaos than Carange.
