History

as Venom

After Eddie Brock decided to reform and try to make something of his life, he put the venom suit for sale at an auction to raise money for charity. Don Fortunato bought the suit to try and make a man out of his son, Angelo.

Angelo quickly made use of his new Venom persona by attacking the school where Peter worked as a teacher and killed one of his former classmates. They finally clashed on the roof, where Angelo appeared to kill Spider-Man by apparently ripped out his heart,but he had been duped, and the villain fled. Seeing that Angelo was a coward, the symbiote detached from him in mid-air, and Fortunato fell to a bloody death.
