More “Venom Reborn” Speculation

Well, with Venom’s debut on the big screen, it’s just as well that he get some more exposure in the comic realm as well, right? Seems a few new images in the upcoming Spider-Man/Red Sonja crossover have raised some interesting questions – who’s gonna be host to the Venom symbiote this time around?

A few images released by IGN show some penciled panels featuring a male whom sees himself as Venom in the mirror, then gets transported to a mysterious other realm, only to transform into Venom before our eyes.

Questions arise as to who the individual is – Pete Parker of Eddie Brock? IGN speculates that the male is too thin to be Brock and is most likely Peter, though if this crossover has anything to do with the canon storyline of the main series, Eddie’s usual buff and muscled body would have atrophied somewhat due to his being in the hospital. So, it’s not terribly far off to say it very well might be Eddie. Brock is also slated to make a reappearence in this summer’s issue of Sensational Spider-Man #38 in a two-part story.

I’m sure I’m not the only one whispering to themself “Make Brock Venom again…Make Brock Venom again…”, so this could be what fans have been waiting for. Or, it could not. Don’t you hate those “Only Time will Tell” things?
