Hero Overview

Agent Venom (real name Flash Thompson) is a former bully and a fan of Spider-Man from Ultimate Spider-Man. Originally named the Scarlet Spider, Flash Thompson is bonded with the Venom Symbiote which turns him into Agent Venom in which he fights for justice. He is one of the main protagonists from Ultimate Spider-Man franchise.

Appearance[]

Flash Thompson is a young Caucasian teenage boy who has a muscular build, blonde hair and green eyes.

He wears his school's football uniform, with a Spider-Man shirt underneath tucked inside his light blue pants, and a black belt with a bronze clasp.

History[]

Flash Thompson started as an bully to Peter Parker, but he turns nice and becomes friend with him and their schoolmates. Flash is unaware that Peter Parker is Spider-Man.

Before he became Agent Venom, Flash started as The Scarlet Spider which he fights the Venomized beings who wreak havoc in New York City.

After he became Agent Venom, he manages to save Spider-Man from an criminal who wreaks havoc in High School. As Agent Venom, Flash has an hungry appetite when an criminal tries to attack him.

Agent Venom manages to foil the criminal with the help from Spider-Man and helped this latter to protect New York from Carnage and Anti-Venom who wreck havoc and infect people.

After Carnage and Anti-Venom are destroyed, Agent Venom, helped by Spider-Man and Harry Osborn manages to clean the Carnage's mess in New York by working together.

Personality[]

Flash is a jock at Midtown High School. He likes to bully weak people and put them in lockers. He is a major fan of Spider-Man, overreacting after he sees Spider-Man. Despite his tough exterior, Flash can get afraid easily and hides behind other people when in danger, just as Flash did when he first encountered the Venom Symbiote and used Peter as a human shield. By Season 3, he has decided to overcome his fear and tries to be a superhero, which doesn't work out until he comes in contact with the Venom Symbiote again.

In Season 4, he shows he is more intelligent, as he disarmed missiles containing carnage samples and defeated Kaine, something that surprised his friends. He also proves he is willing to forgive, as he relinquished his grudge against Scarlet Spider and they made amends.

Powers and Abilities[]

Normal[]

  • Peak Human Strength: Flash has been shown to be quite strong even for a normal human, like punching a dent on lockers.
  • Peak Human Acrobatics: Despite his large built, Flash is shown to be very nimble and agile, as shown from his performance in a P.E. fitness course setup by Taskmaster. His performance made Taskmaster initially believe Flash was Spider-Man.
  • Hand-to-Hand Combat: He was a capable fighter, relying on effective brawling skills from his years of sports. After training in S.H.I.E.L.D., his combat abilities increased drastically, able to take on multiple enemies at once.
  • Iron Willpower: Looking to Spider-Man's nature as a role-model, Flash has also emulated the wall-crawler's strength of will, refusing to accept defeat or give in to torture.

Venom Symbiote[]

Black Symbiotic Costume: Flash is possessed by the symbiote, but has found a way to partner with it as a friend, thus retaining his full mental faculties while in Venom form; unlike when Harry Obsborn attempted to be Venom, Flash is in complete harmony with the symbiote and never loses control when his temper flares. The symbiote has some of Spider-Man's spider powers, granting Flash access to those powers as well. This version of the symbiote is also capable of absorbing weaponry and armor, as when he took the missiles from Beetle. As revealed by Dr. Connors, this was because Flash's personal DNA proved so ideal to it, the Symbiote bonded to his genetics on a cellular level. This makes it nearly impossible for the Symbiote to be removed from Flash, greatly reducing his vulnerability to electricity and sonic vibrations.

  • Shape Shifting: The Symbiote's gives Agent Venom a virtually malleable anatomy which allows it to create countless tendrils for transport or modifying weaponry and technologies, which can be used to further aid him in battle.
  • Superhuman Durability: He is also far more resilient to physical damage than Spider-Man himself, able take the brute force of Rhino or Hulk and recover quickly after.
  • Superhuman Strength: Combining the Symbiote's own strength with that of the replicated Spider-Man's and Flash's, Agent Venom is much stronger than Spider-Man, able to effortlessly rip heavy and solid structures bolted in from their surface.
  • Regenerative Healing Factor: Agent Venom has a greatly accelerated healing speed, able to heal broken bones and damaged flesh instantaneously. He can also heal infections to an extent that modern medical technologies cannot. The Venom Symbiote can also instantly regenerate its own bio-mass, effectively making Agent Venom's bodysuit form indestructible.
  • Technology Morphing: Agent Venom can morph and enhance vehicles and other forms of machinery and technology using the Symbiote.
  • Assimilation: Agent Venom is able to absorb and retain the abilities of others that it has merged with. In addition, unlike the previous Venom Symbiote's could only merge with living creatures and morph it into its own likeness, this one is able to assimilate technology into its mass, where it can then use it as the original owner would and even enhance its usage.
    • Missile Launchers: Agent Venom stole the Beetle's shoulder-mounted missile launchers.
    • Bio-Armor: Agent Venom stole some pieces of the Beetle Armor to give himself extra protection.
    • Spider Powers: With the original Venom Symbiote having merged with Spider-Man for a period, it was able to replicate and integrate all of Spider-Man's powers.
      • Superhuman Agility: He is far more agile than a normal human being, able to swiftly and effortlessly dodge a barrage of projectiles unscathed, all while launching a counter-attack without reducing his accuracy.
      • Spider-Sense: Like Spider-Man, Agent Venom has a natural radar to incoming danger, allowing him to instinctively react and avoid it even if caught off guard.
      • Wall-Crawling: Like Spider-Man, he can stick to nearly all surfaces without using his hands or feet, allowing him to scale any terrain without any tools.
      • Organic Webbing: Unlike Spider-Man, Agent Venom is able to generate webbing natural from his wrists, preventing him from ever running out of the substance.

Weaknesses[]

  • Low Intellect: As Flash himself noted, he is a straight C student, being only proficient in combat and anything else to do with aggression. He often asks Spider-Man for strategies, or is told to think about his football plays; regardless of his low intelligent, Flash will carry out a plan once he has it in his head.
  • Loud Noises: Though in control of the symbiote for the most part, Flash will start losing his bond with it if he hears something like a bell, car alarm or a school bell. Additionally sonic generators used by Beetle can also cause this.

Paraphernalia[]

Equipment[]

Possessed by the Venom (Symbiote)

Weapons[]

Symbiote Armour, Symbiote Shoulder Missiles

Trivia[]

  • In The Symbiote Saga: Part 3, when Agent Venom loses control of the symbiote, he resembles the Mac Gargan version.
  • Flash is a fan of Captain America, being flattered by a compliment of his.
  • He considers himself to best friends with Peter.
  • This is Flash Thompson's fifth animated appearance after Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, Spider-Man (1994), Spider-Man: The New Animated Series and The Spectacular Spider-Man.
  • This is Agent Venom's animated debut.
  • His eyes as Agent Venom are different to his comic book counterpart while in some promotional material he has the same eyes as his classic counterpart, until in Double Agent Venom.
  • Technically, this is Scarlet Spider's fourth appearance after Fantastic Four (1994), X-Men (1992) and Spider-Man (1994).
  • As of Season 4, Flash was temporarily the second Scarlet Spider, whereas Ben is the first Scarlet Spider before him.
