McFarlane (and his hilarious drawing sound effects) took to Facebook to show how he would slightly alter Venom’s look if he magically could. He started with the eyes, which he says are a little too close together, making it appear as though Venom is constantly trying to see his missing nose. He also gave Hardy’s Venom’s eyes the original uptick that comic book fans should find familiar.
As for the mouth, he adjusted the length of some teeth and removed a few on the side to get rid of Hardy’s Venom’s haven’t a natural smile. The overall effect from all of his changes makes our favorite Symbiote much scarier.
It shouldn’t be overlooked that despite these suggested changes, McFarlane repeatedly said he is excited for the movie. And why shouldn’t he be? A character he helped create is finally getting the big screen adaptation he deserves, and even if the look isn’t exactly right it could always be so much worse.
