I say do it. Could be pretty badass.. You could do the shin armor and shoulder bells on the cheap with eva foam.

I would bet the general set-up for the story will be short lived, but I think given the recent Spider-man hype they may actually keep Flash Thompson as Venom for awhile if he's a major player in the flick, even if it's not as Venom. They're going to want the characters in the flick to be reflected in the comics as per the norm and Flash was a pretty huge factor in Peter's high school years. Given that he can actually walk again while using the suit instead of being paralyzed I wouldn't expect to see it go away any time before the movie release.

It's actually not always like that. The deal is they took crippled Flash Thompson (who used to be in the military) and put him in the suit as a sort of black ops deal. The suit looks like it does above when he's in control, but he can only be in the suit 48 hours before the suit gains total control. If he loses his temper though, the suit can gain a foothold, and starts to "hulk out" into the more familiar Venom look. They've only had one issue of the actual series and one of the recent Point One issues so far, but I have a sneaking suspicion this will turn out kind of how Damian did in the Batman comics loathed at first then accepted.

It does look like a mish mash of Marvel characters. I like the design but I still prefer the original. He he could drive his choice of car would be 2011 Hennessey Venom GT

If it's not Eddie Brock then its not Venom. Just like Peter Parker wearing the black suit doesn't make him Venom.
Does he have powers? And if so, why does he have a gun?
I don't like it at all. Seems confusing and rather stupid. It's just another reason to bring in another black costume which will obviously sell more comics.

Aren't they in the business to sell comics. As much of us old dogs like the originals they still have to appeal to the future readers.

Its a neat custom, but I wouldn't call it Venom, regardless of the story behind it...

it still fluctuates in size just like went it was on mac he looked identical yo black suit spiderman but as he raged up he started getting beefy and losing stability and turning into the monster venom. and when they call the charecter the new venom its more of a laymans term for new venom symbiote host
How about this then?
The story is interesting. And it kind of makes sense. Flash Thompson was the # 1 Spiderman fan. Now he gets the chance to BE Spidey. But at the risk of becoming Venom.
And Issue No. 1 has Jack-o-Lantern. Haven't seen him in decades. And his girlfriend is 'Betty' who's ex had a secret life.
