The issue the symbiote had was it loved peter so much it didnt want to see him hurt. So it tried to get peter to stand up for himself, but instead of making his consciousness known to communicate it just made peter focus on his problems and not come up with a calm solution.

[Alastair_Ulven]

I did always wish there was a version of venom where he didn't go crazy and evil. Where the two worked together. Understanding each other and being able to help. Imagine Peter being able to talk with the symbiote. Get advice from it or see from a new perspective or vice versa.

As in actual symbiosis.

[MrEffectfilms]

I'd say it's a bit of both. I do think the symbiote encouraged Peter to lower his restrictions on himself and access more of his power but not all of it (a full powered punch from Spiderman is an instant kill). Instead more like a small percentage of both, a small enough amount that Peter just assumed that the suit made him stronger rather than him instinctively using more of his own power.

I'd say that in an alternate world where Peter gave himself over to the symbiote completely he would have become an immediate Avengers level threat and possibly could even beat the entire team by himself.

In the comic where Peter dies and rejects to be reborn by the spider god, the symbiote felt his death and went after him and brought him back. The symbiote is in love with Peter that it left the current venom host who wasn’t Eddie Brock and went after Peter’s corps. So that shows how much it’s in love with Peter.

[isaiahjenkins]

Peter is one of the most determined and humbled heroes in the Marvel universe. Peter must constantly pull his punches back so he won’t injure or kill someone. The fact that he is hated and bullied by almost EVERYONE in the Marvel universe ranges from people in his personal life, such as Peter Parker, to the hero and villain communities, such as Spider-Man. Peter constantly reminds himself that he can’t slip or cross that line, and Peter ACKNOWLEDGES that he HAS a dark side and has to keep underneath the surface so that he won’t snap and become the worst person he could become. The Venom symbiote wants to help Peter, but when the symbiote begins to corrupt Peter slowly by twisting his morals and ideas about being Spider-Man, Peter eventually discards the symbiote because he notices that it is turning him into someone he is not.

Thing is in Venom comics it turns out Peter Parker was supposed to be the Venom host and be the King in Black after Knull was defeated but due to Peter rejecting it the title and never ending loop was given to Eddie Brock as it turned out Eddie's future self created a loop situation leading Eddie to become the King of Black and to eventually take his future self's position with Peter presumably doing the same thing to if he gained a true bond with the Venom symbiote.

[jessemillan]

When you let a symbiote take over you, you become something dangerous. Spider-Man knew this, which led to him rejecting the symbiote.

[demonichero]

I know there are various story’s about what if spider-man kept the venom suit but if we look at it there are probably two ways this plays out. 1st is probably spider become a punisher like hero that probably takes someone like the avengers to take down if they need to. 2nd is if Spider-Man convinces the symbiot to work with him instead of trying to kill his rouges gallery. He might actually have been a more effective Spider-Man to the point his villain teaming up was their only option to fight him on even footing.

[jonathanb]

The Symbiote was basically a new born baby who learned anger and pain from Peter

[Trihexa]

The thing is that klyntar (Venom's race) are a benevolent race that want to bond with heroes in order to empower them into being better heroes. It is only when they bond with those that aren't moral does things go wrong as they become corrupted. I'm not sure if it still cannon but Deadpool had managed to get his hands on Venom first infecting him with his madness corrupting Venom from his purpose. If peter was able to bond with a uncorrupted Venom then i can safely say that he would become one of the strongest heroes on the planet however i can still see Peter going down a dark path in the future with the more lives he fails to save.

Peter would be so determined to prevent more loss of life and the anger that he keep bottled inside at how unfair his life is that it would eventually bleed into Venom corrupting him into doing anything to save more people and making his life better.

[ericschuller]

This was one of the best videos on Peter and the symbiote's relationship that I've seen thus far in my 28 years of being a Spidey fan.

[raymonddiaz]

I remember having marvel trading cards when I was a little kid, 30 ish years ago, and it said his symbiote suit greatly enhanced his strength making it possible for him to hurt hulk and Thor with his punches. They were still stronger but couldn’t tank his punches like they sometimes show being done. I think spectacular Spider-Man showed this in a simple way by jumping much farther then he usually can and saying that jump should have been impossible or was way farther than he ever jumped before, something like that. And it’s a writer thing like a lot of people’s power set. I wish I still had those cards, lost them in one of our moves as a kid😢.

[DarkNight-ikqy]

Having a symbiote like Venom can be hit or miss depending on what kind of person you are. Especially in the newer incarnations where the symbiote affects your behaviour by essentially removing any filter you may have on your thoughts and emotions. Or in the original comic where it takes control of your body while you sleep and does what you’d normally do, leading to a feeling of exhaustion over time. It’s not inherently malicious though and if it can tell something it’s doing is taking a toll on your health it will stop (maybe not forever but long enough for you to recover). If you don’t mind that then all that’s left is feeding it, chocolate and brains are ideal

[thanos]

Hes perfect cuz the Symbiote loves to corrupt and with Spidey being all about "With great power, comes great responsibility" and always sacrificing himself to help others and wanting to do whats right... While also secretly carrying so much pain and suffering just waiting to come out, Symbiote is the key to unleash it all and overwrite his humble nature. Tho even then he still somewhat has enough control when being corrupted, to not let the symbiote 100% take over. Once it found a new host being fuled by rage, it was able to use everything it absorbed from spidey, install it into the new host and take full control and showing off his true potential. Spidey was the perfect host cuz the Symbiote knew if it were to ever get rejected, itd be strong enough to overpower its new host and be unstoppable.

[pantasticalB.I.C]

I would just like to day, the symbiote isnt initially an evil creature. It does what the host desires as it wants to make its host happy. Because Symbiotes like venom cannot live without a host. Look at some of the version of Eddie Brock. He eventually was able to be a good guy and grwo with venom. Its all about how the Symbiote learns, as it learns from its hosts.

[joelhardaway]

I imagine a version of Peter with a perfect bond with the symbiote is the one from Spider-Man shattered dimensions.

[spider-man]

What pisses me off is that they REFUSE to do a story where he becomes Venom

That is something I was hoping for in Spider-Man 2. Would of been fresh and just awesome

[franciscoguerrero]

A true all out Spiderman vs Marvel would be amazing.

[WordsOfARaven]

Venom kinda reminds me of the hym how it feeds the feelings of grief and sadness after the host did something wrong

[jeffersonpierce]

I love venom so much. And he absolutely hates peter because he rejected venom. One of spideys best villains
