/ February 19, 2011I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a standard Venom where Brock’s face was revealed by the symbiote unhinging it’s jaw like that. It’s such a simple approach. And the way the tongue goes under the chin? Excellent!
The one thing that has always bothered me about Venom is how some artists draw his mouth as somehow cavernous. Brock’s head would have to go completely missing for that to be possible.
They’ve worked their way around it by explaining that the symbiote can change it’s mass and cocoon the host entirely. But I still think that’s cheap.

/ February 19, 2011Wolvenom is THE scariest thing I’ve ever seen, but Venomizing other Marvel characters is such a great idea!

/ February 20, 2011These are so fantastic, such an obvious idea that I’m surprised this hasn’t been done before.
I have to agree with hinge jaw looking great, and super duper extra creepy as well, to see a face emerging from within the face. Makes things that much more visceral and icky.

/ February 20, 2011I like how the symbiote makes a mocking effort to replicate the heroes’ normal costume. I can feel it infest their heads with terrible thoughts and urges.

/ February 20, 2011Brrrrrreagh. DareVenom’s wry little smile is is giving me the chills.
These are so good and creepy. Love the appropriately alien looking biology for the symbiotes.

/ February 20, 2011Love them, Wolvenom especially. Due in no small part to combining the two characters’ names and stressing ‘nom’, as in ‘om nom nom’. I hope there are more to come, they’re awesome.

/ February 20, 2011awesome work. I really think it’s cool the way the teeth seem to move around.

/ February 21, 2011Ultimate Venom actually did the face-in-mouth thing first, I think.
DoctorSmashy
/ February 21, 2011It’s very reminiscent of Ultimate Venom, with the face coming out of the mouth and the monstrosity of it all.

/ March 7, 2011I think a marvel event involving a symbiote invasion would be cool. I also like how made them feel truly alien (daredevil has a xenomorph feel to it.)
