Eugene Thompson

Eugene Thompson (ユージン・トンプソン, Yūjin Tonpuson), or "Agent Venom" (エージェント・ヴェノム, Ējento Venomu), is a fictional character and protagonist of the MDC's Spider-Shock series created by Steve Ditko and Dwayne McDuffie.

"Flash" Thompson (“フラッシュ”・トンプソン, "Furasshu" Tonpuson), is a high school jock and former bully at Midtown High School, and Osborn Academy who initially picks on Peter, Virgil and other of his clasmates, but also admires Spider-Man and Static.

Sometime ago after the symbiote invasion, Flash had discovered a weakened fragment of a symbiote, bonded with it, and created a dual crime-fighting identity of his own, he was even able to bind at the genetic level and become a perfect coexistence relationship.

"I have nothing. You've seen where I live, you've seen what I've got! Look, I've dreamed every night of something like this to happen to me. This symbiote chose me, it is my destiny! Please, you have to trust me!"
 * —Agent Venom, to Spider-Man.

Powers

 * Alien Symbiotic Physiology: Flash is possessed by Venom's symbiote, but has found a way to partner with it as a friend, thus retaining his full mental faculties while in Venom form; unlike when Harry Obsborn was bounded with a symbiote, Flash is in complete harmony with the symbiote and never loses control when his temper flares. The symbiote has some of Spider-Man's spider powers, granting Flash access to those powers as well. This version of Venom's symbiote is also capable of absorbing weaponry and armor, as when he took the missiles from Beetle. As revealed by Dr. Connors, this was because Flash's personal DNA proved so ideal to it, the Symbiote bonded to his genetics on a cellular level. This makes it nearly impossible for the Symbiote to be removed from Flash, greatly reducing his vulnerability to electricity and sonic vibrations.
 * Superhuman Strength: Combining the Symbiote's own strength with that of the replicated Spider-Man's and Flash's, Agent Venom is much stronger than Spider-Man, able to effortlessly rip heavy and solid structures bolted in from their surface.
 * Superhuman Durability: He is also far more resilient to physical damage than Spider-Man himself, able take the brute force of Rhino or Hulk and recover quickly after.
 * Superhuman Agility: He is far more agile than a normal human being, able to swiftly and effortlessly dodge a barrage of projectiles unscathed, all while launching a counter-attack without reducing his accuracy.
 * Internal Purging: As his suit is also an alien symbiote, Flash can forcefully "cure" the substance from the person's body using antibodies produced by the symbiote. This power can also be used to depower superhumans on contact, causing super powers in the blood to diminish and disappear.
 * Regenerative Healing Factor: Agent Venom has a greatly accelerated healing speed, able to heal broken bones and damaged flesh instantaneously. He can also heal infections to an extent that modern medical technologies cannot. The Venom Symbiote can also instantly regenerate its own bio-mass, effectively making Agent Venom's bodysuit form indestructible.
 * Camouflage Capabilities:
 * Constituent-Matter Generation:
 * Shapeshifting: The Symbiote's gives Agent Venom a virtually malleable anatomy which allows it to create countless tendrils for transport or modifying weaponry and technologies, which can be used to further aid him in battle.
 * Claws & Fangs: Either by his own volition or when the symbiote is agitated by a loud sound, Flash can assume a more muscular and feral Venom form much like the one Harry Osborn used. In this form, he has claws and an open mouth full of fangs.
 * Technology Morphing: Agent Venom can morph and enhance vehicles and other forms of machinery and technology using the Symbiote.
 * Assimilation: Agent Venom is able to absorb and retain the abilities of others that it has merged with. In addition, unlike the previous Venom Symbiote's could only merge with living creatures and morph it into its own likeness, this one is able to assimilate technology into its mass, where it can then use it as the original owner would and even enhance its usage.
 * Missile Launchers: Agent Venom stole the Beetle's shoulder-mounted missile launchers.
 * Bio-Armor: Agent Venom stole some pieces of the Beetle Armor to give himself extra protection.
 * Spider Powers: With the original Venom Symbiote having merged with Spider-Man for a period, it was able to replicate and integrate all of Spider-Man's powers.
 * Organic Webbing: Unlike Spider-Man, Agent Venom is able to generate and shoot strands of its substance in the form of "webbing" natural from his wrists, preventing him from ever running out of the substance.
 * Wall-Crawling: Like Spider-Man, he can stick to nearly all surfaces without using his hands or feet, allowing him to scale any terrain without any tools.
 * ESP (Spider-Sense): Like Spider-Man, Agent Venom has an extrasensory ability which acts as a natural radar to incoming danger, allowing him to instinctively react and avoid it even if caught off guard.
 * Spider-Sense Immunity: With the original Venom Symbiote having merged with Spider-Man for a period, Flash can sneak up on him undetected as Spider-Man's Spider-Sense registers him as Spider-Man.

Abilities

 * Peak Human Strength: Flash has been shown to be quite strong even for a normal human, like punching a dent on lockers.
 * Peak Human Acrobatics: Despite his large built, Flash is shown to be very nimble and agile, as shown from his performance in a P.E. fitness course setup by Taskmaster. His performance made Taskmaster initially believe Flash was Spider-Man.
 * Hand-to-Hand Combat: He was a capable fighter, relying on effective brawling skills from his years of sports. After training in S.H.I.E.L.D., his combat abilities increased drastically, able to take on multiple enemies at once.
 * Iron Willpower: Looking to Spider-Man's nature as a role-model, Flash has also emulated the wall-crawler's strength of will, refusing to accept defeat or give in to torture.
