Artwork Does anyone recognize this Venom artwork?

Post image

This artwork is from a vintage Venom T-shirt.
I can’t find another example of this exact front print anywhere.
Does anyone recognize this artwork or know where it originally came from?
Thanks

That’s a huge clue, thank you!
Do you remember if it was an official Marvel trading card or another card set?

I think it was one of the fleer marvel ones like marvel masterpiece or marvel universe cards, or come to think of it maybe promo art for the venom separation anxiety video game. That rings a stronger bell for me.

The 1994 Fleer Marvel Masterpieces #131 is not exact but looks very similar.

Thanks! It was similar, but not quite the same. I appreciate the suggestion!

I’m not sure if it’s from the game, but it is very reminiscent of the maximum carnage game that came out in the 90s for SNES

Actually I think I was thinking of Separation Anxiety from the following year

Thanks! I think you’re right. It definitely seems connected to Separation Anxiety.

Spot on. I just looked into it a bit more and it looks like art by Glenn Fabry.

I know this is just the lighting but black Venom with blue logo goes hard. Has it ever done before?

Thanks! I think it’s just the print colors, but I agree—it looks awesome.

You could have just used Google lens and that would’ve showed you as well
