“ | I'm Eddie Brock. I'm a reporter. And I always seem to find myself questioning what the government may not be looking at. But, I've found something...really bad. And I'm feeling really sick. I've been hearing voices. I think I've been...taken. | „ |
~ Eddie Brock |
“ | Let me tell you something, buddy. All right? Just man-to-man. Because I have spent a significant amount of time, all right, with one of these creatures up my ass. It’s not a lot of fun. And then I find out, all along, that they’re killing you. | „ |
~ Eddie to Carlton Drake. |
Edward Charles Allan "Eddie" Brock is one of the two main protagonists (alongside Venom) of the Venom trilogy within Sony's Spider-Man Universe and a minor character in the 2021 Marvel Cinematic Universe film Spider-Man: No Way Home.
He is a freelance reporter that bonds with an alien symbiote that infected him, while he was investigating a conspiration involving the organization that studied the symbiotes, Life Foundation. After successfully defeating Life Foundation's CEO and the symbiote that bonded with him, Eddie decided to use his powers become the protector of San Francisco along with Venom.
He was portrayed by Tom Hardy, who also voiced Venom, Max Rockatansky in Mad Max: Fury Road, James Delaney in Taboo, and Tommy Conlon in Warrior. In by the late Japanese dubbed, he is voiced by Junichi Suwabe.
Personality[]
Similar to his original counterpart, Eddie is trying to excel in journalism. However, unlike his original counterpart (who happens to be somewhat wrathful in nature), Eddie tries to be more civil as he tends to avoid causing any trouble with the authorities. He is also more civil with Anne due to their friendship, even after their breakup and learning that she's going on with another man, Eddie decided that it would be better not to interfere with Anne's new relationship.
When being bonded with the Venom symbiote, Eddie seems to be very uncomfortable in becoming its host body as it made him go on the run from the law. Even he got help from the surgeon and Anne's new boyfriend, Dan check on him. However, he seems to appreciate his new abilities, even convincing the symbiote that they would just use the power only to take down criminals instead of hurting innocent people.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Superhuman Durability: Due to Venom's presence inside him, Eddie's bodily tissue becomes substantially harder than normal human, which increased to maximum level by forming black, slimy armor around him. His durability is further increased upon forming his hulking body over his host's.
Weaknesses[]
- Symbiote Separation: If Eddie is not connected to Venom, he is just a normal human without powers and is vulnerable to fatal injuries and death. Venom on the other hand, would immediately die out.
