A Father's Legacy is hard to deny... May 16, 2007
Daniel T. Blundell (London, England)
With the accidental discovered of a box overflowing with the past, Peter and Aunt May relive a past picnic and amongst the ghosts, an old face, Eddy Brock. Peter sets off to meet up with his childhood family friend with a copy of the video he had discovered. After a wise lesson, Eddy reveals his surprise... A flask of the 'Suit', both their father's biological creation.
A reggae concert to distract and an overcurious spidey, with a dropped spoon to mix, leads to the creation of ULTIMATE BLACK SPIDERMAN, stronger, faster and sporting a stylish new look. But after seeing the suit for what it was, he must destroy it... When Eddy caught him red handed, he was none to pleased.
So much so, the vengeful young Brock took the step, and ULTIMATE VENOM is created. A raw force to rival poor Spidey who has to face his own demons. Can Spidey overcome the monster known only as Venom!
One of the greatest Ultimate Spiderman story, a deeply dark look at Peter's Past, Future and most importanly, Himself. I fully recommend!

When Ultimate Spider-man started it was like a breath of fresh air. Although this new interpretation of Spider-man was different it was proving to be some of the best Spider-man work done. But, when I heard news the extremely popular Spider-man villain was to become "Ultimised", as a lifelong Spider-man fan the first thoughts I had were this will not work. I was made to eat those words when I read Ultimate Spider-man Vol.5 Venom.This new interpretation of one of Spider-man most successul villains manages to be better than the original story told in the early 90's. Yes the alien costume story in the original Spider-man comics is great but is nowhere near as realistic as the Venom origin told by Brian Michael Bendis in Ultimate Spider-man.
Vol. 5 of Ultimate Spider-man picks up after the end of the Legacy story and the momentum just keeps on going. Throughout the story we are introduced to the new Eddie Brock (younger but still not a nice person) and we also learn a helluva lot more about Peter Parker's parents. This story is one of the darker Spider-man stories with the majority of action being set in darkened settings (the rain soaked confrontation between Peter and Venom is astonoshing) and once again Peter learns that with Great power comes great responsibility. The writing is as good as all Bendis' previous work on Ultimate Spider-man with Mark Bagley's art and Art Thiberts inking also deserve praise.
The only problems I had with "Venom" was we don't get to see a showdown between with Peter in full Spider-man costume but this is a very slight niggle, secondly, this book only works at its best when it is looked at in the full context of the Ultimate Spider-man universe so you might have to read volumes 1 thru 4 to get maximum benefit out of the story.
You may hear people criticising the Ultimate line beacuase it is so different from the "old" Spider-man but that was the whole point of the Ultimate Spider-man line. The new Venom story does just that and is one of the high points of Ultimate Spider-man.

This volume is very very good - but I wouldn't have given it five stars if I could give it four and a half. The cons? He's a very young teenager and I preferred Toby Maguire. Pro's? Venom is one of the coolest bad guys ever. EVER. He is drawn beutifully in this comic, strong and lethal yet oddly smooth and slimy. He looks great. The fighting is pretty good too - lot's of WHAM's and SCRREEEEEEEEEEECCCCHH's. Not just that but there's some good bits of emotion in it - a serious turn in the tale with MJ. All in all I hope I've written this review in such a way your dying to know more.
