This article contains spoilers forVenom: The Last Dance.
The other appeal to theVenommovies have been seeing just how hard they commit to the symbiote concept.
These come from Knull, ruler of Venoms home planet Klyntar and the god of the symbiotes.

Venom
You know him!
Also they kinda love each other.
Madame Web and the Spiders-Women who arent even Spiders-Women yet?
Marvel Comics
I dont think so.
Sonys Earth is doomed and, honestly, good riddance.
For real this time because hes eaten by a xenophage.
Thats a real bummer, because Toxin is easily one of the more interesting symbiotes from the comics.
Agony
We meet Mulligan/Toxin under the supervision of Dr. Teddy Payne, a scientist who studies symbiotes.
The same attack further prompts her to bond with the sample and become Agony.
Marvel Comics
Despite the metal name, agony doesnt really have anything to do with Agony.
She can move really, really fast.
Thats kinda cool, but not agonizing.
Marvel Comics
Lasher
Payne becomes Agony to help save colleague Sadie Christmas (Clark Backo).
She has tendrils that look like giant whips, with which she lashes at enemies.
Hybrid
Speaking of names, none of the other symbiotes get to give themselves cool monikers.
Marvel Comics
However, when a symbiote merges with different people and becomes a two-headed monstrosity, thats probably Hybrid.
This version of Hybrid just looks cool for a second and then dies.
Phage
Phage is the only well-known symbiote from the comics not to appear in the movies.
Marvel Comics
Or maybe he did?
Scorn
In a couple of frames, we see a purple female symbiote battling the xenophages.
The one notable symbiote who has fire powers comes from a retcon.
Marvel Comics
Big Mother was introduced in Peter David and ChrisCrosss excellentCaptain Marvelrun from 2001, but not as a symbiote.
Big Mother and Grendel became symbiotes only after Knulls introduction.
Everyone Else
Venom: The Last Dance is now playing in theaters.
