Background
In Ultimate Spider-Man, Doc Ock was hired by Norman Osborn to capture Spider-Man and use his DNA to create super soldiers. Ock's first attempt was to send an Octobot to get a sample of Spider-Man's blood, which was completed successfuly. The Venom symbiote was created after a failure to figure out Spider-Man's blood. The symbiote then broke free out of Ock's lab and went looking for Spider-Man. Harry Osborn, who was jealous of Peter's new friends( actually his teamates' alter-egoes), decides to throw a huge party. The symbiote then crashed the party, jumping from host to host( including Flash Thompson, the host of the Ultimate comics Venom, though in this version isn't), which culminates into a huge battle on the roof tops, trying to get to Spider-Man while the team (Spider-Man, Nova, Iron Fist, Power Man and White Tiger) fights the symbiote. Peter then decides to let the symboite bond to him(resembling his black suited version), and uses his electric webbing to shock the symbiote off him. The symbiote then gets a more humaniod shape, the abiltity to speak properly, Spider-Man's powers and names itself Venom. Spider-Man then electrocutes Venom and the symbiote is seemingly destroyed. Harry then captures a bit of the symbiote underneath a glass and Norman orders Doc Ock to make another Venom symbiote.
Harry then uses the symbiote, controlled through a watch, to parade around as a hero( looking like the black suited version of Spider-Man) defeating Dragon Man and praised by J. Jonah Jameson. Peter, sick with a cold, becomes jealous and then worried when he finds out that it is Harry. Harry told Peter that he has the symbiote under control, which ends up controlling him. Peter ends up fighting Venom and throwing him into a large screen, seemingly destroying Venom again. Doc Ock finds out that Harry is Venom, but refuses to tell Norman. The symbiote is shown to be in Harry's ear, hinting that part of the symbiote survived.
Venom resurfaces attacking a petty criminal, and beating him up badly. Spider-Man is then blamed for Venom's attack, as it looked like Spider-Man did it. Peter knows Venom is back and using Harry Osborn as its host, forcing Peter in a dilema whether to reveal who Venom is to Nick Fury and his teammates Iron Fist, Nova, White Tiger, and Power Man or not. Nick orders the team to finish Venom off, much to Peter's anger. Harry's neglecting father, Norman Osborn becomes Venom's target, and attacks him twice at Oscorp before Spider-Man and his team intervens. Peter then reveals the secret to his teamates and tries to create an Anti-Venom cure at the school while his team try to hold Venom off from reaching Spider-Man. The end result is Venom gets shocked by lightning on the school antenna and Spider-Man gives Harry the Anti-Venom and Venom is once again seemingly destroyed. Norman delivers a sample of Harry's blood to Doc Ock to better create a new Venom and asks Ock if he knew Harry was Venom, which he denied.
Harry is then shown to have the symbiote in his system, only showing itself at severe emotional times, after his father is then turned into the Green Goblin. He is then brought onto the Helicarrier to be protected by S.H.I.E.L.D. He attempts to save his father, believing he can talk the Goblin into sense. Goblin then shocks Harry, causing him to turn him into Venom. Venom then fights with Spider-Man as Spider-Man tries to talk Harry out of it. Harry tries to free himself of the symbiote, with help from Spider-Man, and is successful. The Goblin then takes the symbiote to find someone who is actually worthy of wearing it.
Notes
- He has the same torso as the black Spider-Man
