Eddie Brock didn’t need saving.

He needed to be seen.

The symbiote didn’t just give him power—it gave him purpose.

Together, they became Venom: a monster born not from evil, but from empathy twisted by pain.

In this episode of Disassembled: Heroes and Villains, we explore Venom as both myth and mirror—an exploration of identity, addiction, and acceptance.

From the church bells of The Amazing Spider-Man to King in Black’s cosmic redemption, this is the story of a man and a creature who learned to live with the monster inside.

Because Venom isn’t the story of a monster who became a man.

It’s the story of a man who learned to live with the monster—and, in doing so, gave the rest of us permission to do the same.
