Whilst his costume and his demeanour can be construed as ridiculous, there is a sad tinge to his personality. The main villain of these first two issues is Humbug. As the book progresses, their confidence returns, and they can go into the final battle with cockiness and a feeling of supremacy over their enemies. Eddie is deeply concerned about the welfare of the parasite, mourning it when it looks lifeless at the start of the issue. They are close and eager to work together. The actual point in time at which this story is set is not clarified, but the relationship between him and his Symbiote is close enough to suggest they have been together for a while. The character of Eddie Brock is fascinating in Venom: Lethal Protector #2. The conclusion of it is a brutal and sudden shock. The final fight actually mirrors the one that opened the first issue, especially considering the people involved and how it finishes. It is often a case of Venom or the other characters using incredibly convenient objects near to them to defeat their enemies, leading to some ridiculous yet comical moments. The fight scenes have a very ’90s feel to them, which the rest of the issue also brings, but that is due to the humor of it.

From a brief fight with a classic Spider-Man villain to an encounter with a member from Eddie’s past, Venom appears revitalized by the end of the issue. His wounds aren’t healing, and he is truly on his own. Brock starts at a really low point as his Symbiote is unresponsive. After Humbug humiliates and nearly kills Eddie Brock’s Venom Symbiote, Brock goes out hunting for those that are trying to destroy him. Venom: Lethal Protector #2 is published by Marvel Comic, written by David Michelinie, with art by Ivan Fiorelli, colors by Bryan Valenza, and letters by Travis Lanham.
