Title: Costume Rating 36: Superior Venom

This week we start with the Superior Venom:

Recently Doctor Octopus had taken over Peter Parker's body and was putting his own spin on being Spider-Man in the Superior Spider-Man title. In one story he got hold of Flash's symbiote and became what Ock called the Superior Venom. By the end of the story Flash regained his symbiote, but it was notable arc in the series.

So what do you think?

2- Superior this thing is not. The design is basically venom's, but with this weird webbing pattern on the face and random red orbs in the arms... ick.

A perfect blend of Spidey, Venom, and Doc Ock.

5! :wub:

3, that web pattern is weird. It's an ok mix of several looks.

I like this design, the spider emblem is strong, the face is interesting, the webs set it apart. The one thing I didn't like about it is how inhuman it got. If you've read the actual comics this Venom was often hunchbacked looking, and the shape was very fluid. Made him look very ugly, but that was probably the point.
But give it a solid human structure and it works for me.

And yes, Tomato, the red bulbs in the forearms are kinda weird.
