Venom: Let There Be Carnage has now recognized the folks who helped make it possible, with more Venom films able to play out on the big screen with their work available for inspiration.Ĭates and Stegman weren't the only comic creators to get shout outs in the Venom: Let There Be Carnage credits. This comes only months after writer Ed Brubaker noted Marvel's lackluster compensation towards him for creating the Winter Soldier. Recently, the estate of comics legend Steve Dikto announced that they would be pursuing a copyright claim to Spider-Man and Doctor Strange. While superhero films continue to dominate Hollywood, many comic creators have noted the poor treatment that they have received by their former employers. RELATED: Venom 2 Director Andy Serkis Revels in the Film's F-Bomb Moment 27, Venom is set to get a new ongoing series from writers Al Ewing and Ram V., with art by Bryan Hitch, which will pick up from where Cates and Stegman left off in their final issue on the series, Venom #200. This massive crossover event saw Eddie Brock face off against Knull one last time, becoming the new King in Black in the process.

After nearly three years, their work culminated in 2021's King in Black. It immediately expanded the world of Venom by creating Knull, the King in Black and symbiote god, while also showcasing confrontations with frequent foe Spider-Man and arch-nemesis Carnage. Starting in May 2018, just months before the release of the first Venom film, Cates and Stegman's symbiote series began. However, as the credits show, the movie also made sure to pay respect to its comic book roots.

It is directed by noted motion-capture actor Andy Serkis, whose unique experience playing characters like Gollum influenced the film. Venom, who has to survive against the villainous Carnage, played by Woody Harrelson. Venom: Let There Be Carnage is the sequel to 2018's Venom, which earned Sony over $856 million.
