But honestly, the rarely-talked-about child of Venom,Sleeper, might just be a bit cooler.
For example,Carnage is Venom’s offspring.
This is where the thing that truly makes Sleeper unique was first discovered.
Meanwhile, Sleeper can just travel through space naturally, even without a host.
Venom can shapeshift, camouflage, andVenom can even redirect electricity.
But other than that, the iconic symbiote doesn’t have any unique powers.
Venom can do none of this.
Most of Sleeper’s Marvel Comics Relatives Have Gotten Spin-Offs
So Why Not Sleeper Himself?
Sleeper is often portrayed as an arrogant and confident being who also has a great desire to help others.
Almost all of Sleeper’s relatives have gotten spin-offs of their own.
There are reallyendless directions that Marvel could take this symbiote.
But the publisher has certainly given a lot of symbiotes their own books, and Sleeper deserves his own.
That’s why, as iconic asVenomis,Sleeperdeserves to be in the spotlight more right now.
