Venom: 8 Most Powerful Symbiotes

5. Anti-Venom

When you're bonded to a creature like Venom for as long as Eddie Brock was, it only stands to reason that there'd be something of him left behind even after Venom is separated from you.

That's what Eddie learned when, shortly after being separated from the Venom symbiote, he ran afoul of Mister Negative. Mister Negative then activated and reversed the remnants of the symbiote in Eddie's bloodstream to create a separate symbiote form, with the colors reversed. Thus Eddie became the superhero Anti-Venom.

What we have here is a reverse case from Scream, where the symbiote has no consciousness this time, allowing the human host to have full control all of the time.

This means that Eddie has access to most of the powers that Venom had, but unimpeded by the psychotic tendencies of the original Venom symbiote - resulting in a much more stable, and thus more dangerous opponent.
