This is one of the greatest ultimate Spiderman book. My favouirate character was always venom if you like venom at all read this book.
It has the right idea putting eddie brock and peter parker as friends also peter with the suit was great but eddie was better the only problem was where was the white spider?
THE STORY IS BRILLIANT AS IS THE ART

Okay folks I admit this is a Good Story. Venom is introduced in a less confusing simplified Origin. I like the the idea that Pete and Eddie were friends at one point. Although somewhere in the first or second year of Ultimate Spidey...a Reporter named Eddie Brock is mentioned...Could be a distant realitive but, not likely. Also his death at the end? Why does He have to DI (Yeah I know according to the Ultimate Spider-man game, he didnt but as far as I'm concerned that doesnt apply...). And Venom seems to be reduced to some slobbering idiot (much Like the Goblin...notice a Trend here?) Good Story. Could be Better though.

This review refers to Ultimate Spider-Man vol. 6 paperback edition: Venom
After other Spider-Man villains, finally fans are treated to the coming of Ultimate Venom! My personal favorite out of Spidey's rogue's gallery, Eddie Brock is given a background and origin very different from the main stream character. Also, Spider-Man's black suit origin is much different. No longer is the grand space-opera of the Secret War mentioned. Now it is a life saving experiment gone wrong.
Not only does Bendis do a flawless job of presenting Venom, he further complicates Peter and MJ's relationship, and the hints of tension with Gwen grow.
My only gripe about Ultimate Spider-Man is a small one, but does EVERYONE know Peter Parker is Spider-Man? Whatever happened to a secret identity being secret, anyway? Yet another character learns Peter's secret in this volume, making me wonder who's next?
Bendis's scripting is very good, and I think this is Bagley's best art yet.
This volume reprints Ultimate Spider-Man #33-39, and can be enjoyed by all ages, by newcomers and established fans.
Highly recommended!

Having grown up reading the adventures of Spider-Man and his villainous arch-enemy Venom in the regular Marvel universe, I wasn't sure what to expect from this re-vamping of the character. I guess that this incarnation of Venom is not as evil or dangerous as the original, but it was inevitable that an "ultimatized" Venom would be brought in at some point, so there's nothing to be done about it. I still like the original Venom better, but this one is still OK and has potential to become better. This version of the popular villain has origins in a "miracle-cure" scientific experiment that Peter Parker's genius father had been working on. Peter, who comes across some of the data and documentaion about the Venom project, wants to check it out. This is, after all, part of his father's legacy. Things do not go as planned, however, and the project develops a mind of its own. I had better not give any more away than that, though. Overall, this book was still good, but is probably the weakest storyline of the bunch, when compared to the previous five TPB-collected story arcs.
