Patricia Robertson is the second host to go by the name of She-Venom, and also happens to be one of the most terrifying-looking of them all.
Introduced in Venom #1 in 2003, Pat Robertson is a US Army lieutenant stationed in the arctic. In this particular issue's plot (which itself seems to take inspiration from John Carpenter's The Thing), Robertson travels to a nearby laboratory only to find that the entire crew have been killed. It eventually transpires that they'd be working on a clone of the symbiote, which had then gotten loose and massacred them all. Lovely.
Wolverine - pretty much out of the blue - also features in the story and is briefly taken over by the symbiote, but it's Robertson who actually goes full Venom. She even ends up travelling to New York in an attempt to kill Eddie Brock, but it doesn't end well for anyone concerned.
Currently, Robertson's whereabouts are unknown, but there's no ignoring just how terrifying her Venom looked - protruding fangs and all.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
