The symbiote started freaking out after being in space for awhile and led the team to the "symbiote home world" where it was revealed that all symbiotes were actually intended to be peace keepers and agents of good. The "true symbiotes" restored/neutered Venom and so he became space knight Venom (ROM!). It kinda goes without saying that every longtime Venom fan was pretty pissed with this whole deal since it turned our gnarly toothed monster into something like modern DC's Blue Beetle. No surprise this entire mess was written by Bendis.

Thanks for response. Yeah that's kinda a kick to the nads to Venom and his fans. The figure doesn't look bad though. But I'm probably gonna pass on him and only pick up Electro and Hobgoblin.
