- Saves Martin Moon and his family.
- Sacrifices himself to kill the Xenophage and destroy the Codex, preventing Knull from escaping his prison and conquering the universe.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He is an anti-hero whose main motivation for killing criminals is because he wants to eat people's heads, which is too much of a corrupting quality for him to be Near Pure Good. He also never subverts or shows remorse for this behavior even moments before his sacrifice.
- He's on & off, as he's capable of doing villainous things such as the aforementioned eating people, destroying public property and being a public menace.
- He is extremely lethal and even enjoys killing certain individuals. While he needs to eat to survive, he does show some sadism when eating his enemies. For example, while Eddie shows Cletus sympathy in his final moments, Venom angrily bites his head off with no regret. He also ate an armed thief with no regret or remorse at the end of the first Venom movie. Though, to be fair, the thief was robbing Mrs. Chen's store. He also wanted to eat Mrs. Chen just because her store didn’t have any chocolate available.
- He is a massive jerk. When he first introduces himself to Eddie, he calls him a loser. He also calls him a p***y when he takes the elevator instead of jumping out of a window (which would been dangerous). He gets irrationally angry when Eddie calls him a parasite. After getting bored of his life, he has a huge argument with Eddie, wrecking his apartment and giving him the middle finger as he leaves.
- Even though he shows genuine care and respect for Eddie, it is sometimes half-hearted as he will react with contempt and annoyance to some of Eddie's conversations and considerations about/to him.
- He can be very careless. In Venom: The Last Dance, he takes control over Eddie's body to dance with Mrs. Chen despite knowing that it would lead the Xenophage right to them, something Eddie calls him out for.
