The REAL Origin of VENOM and Spider-Man's Black Costume! || Comic Misconceptions || NerdSync

SUBSCRIBE for weekly comic book videos! ▶▶ http://nerdsyn.cc/_SUBSCRIBE_

You can't talk about the history of Venom without talking about the history of Spider-Man's black symbiote suit! So let's do that, then. Today, we're talking about how a random comic book fan came up with the idea of Spider-Man's black costume which was introduced in the Secret Wars comic event, and how the fans hated it so much that the writers turned the suit into an evil alien symbiote just so Spidey would get rid of it. Also, learn about the true story of how Venom was originally supposed to be a woman!

Every Wednesday, Comic Misconceptions explores the fun trivia, interesting ideas, and mind-blowing theories regarding comic books and the rich history and culture that surrounds them!
