Spider-Man 2: 10 Villain Boss Fights We Need To See

If there was a single character on everyone's mind for Insomniac's next Spider-Man game, it would have to be Venom.

The post-credits tease that capped off 2018's Spider-Man delivered several bombshells. First, that Harry Osborn was still in New York, and second, that his father Norman had bonded him to a symbiote in a bid to save his son from terminal illness.

Apart from that, there's next to nothing we know of the symbiote in Insomniac's Spider-Man. We don't know if it's of alien origin - as was the case in Spidey's traditional comics - or if it's of manmade design - as was told in Brian Bendis and Mark Bagley's seminal run on Ultimate Spider-Man in the early aughts.

Whatever its origin, Venom IS coming, and it looks as though Harry will be their host. Fans will be expecting a number of run-ins with the symbiote in the next game, and that - fingers crossed - Insomniac's adaptation of the Black Costume Saga leads to Peter or Miles wearing it too.
