Marvel's Spider-Man 2 trailer finally kills the Venom debate
A new trailer for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has laid to rest any doubts about Venom's true identity.
Yesterday saw a new trailer for Spider-Man 2 out of San Diego Comic Con, which chiefly set up the new story for the sequel. Harry Osborn and the rogue's gallery of villains are pretty much the focus for the new trailer, and while Kraven the Hunter and Mr. Negative might be a big deal, it's a shared line between Harry and Venom that all but confirms the characters are one and the same.
Right near the beginning of the trailer, Harry explains to Peter Parker that he wants to "heal the world." Then, near the conclusion of the trailer, we hear Venom utter those same words in his sinister and slippery voice, pretty much confirming that Venom's true identity is none other than Harry Osborn himself.
Over on the Marvel's Spider-Man subreddit, fans are thankful the new trailer finally confirms what they deemed to be pretty obvious in the first place. The comments under the new trailer are pretty much full of examples like the one just below, where fans are eager to put the whole speculation of Venom's true identity behind them for good.
"I'm guessing the emotional climax of this game will be Peter deciding to remove Venom from Harry thus killing him, thus setting up Norman's Green Goblin revenge plot for 3," chimes in one fan. "The teaser or DLC will probably have the symbiote find a new host in Eddie or Cletus or whoever else."
It's an interesting line of thought, and a very plausible one. Harry never appeared in the original Marvel's Spider-Man, but his father Norman was eagerly putting his son through weird experiments to apparently save him, which is sort of where the original speculation about Harry being Venom originated from.
