Venom turns 30 this year, and to celebrate, Funko presents the new Venom series of vinyl figures. Venom hasn't just taken over Eddie Brock, no, he's taken over Black Panther, the Hulk, Loki, Captain America, Iron Man, and even Ghost Rider (be sure to note which figures are exclusive to certain shops).
From Funko: "In honor of Venom’s 30th anniversary, your favorite Super Heroes and Villains are being Venomized, and it’s safe to say the universe will never be the same.
Venom’s first victim, journalist Eddie Brock, is a natural choice for the Pop! Marvel Venom Series. Similarly, Cletus Kasady, and Carnage, despite being considered an “I” rather than a “we,” are another natural choice for the Venom series.
While it’s difficult to picture the Hulk any color but green, he makes Venom’s signature black costume work for him. Captain America manages to retain his usual red, white, and blue color scheme even as Venom. And Iron Man’s determined to fly, even as Venom’s captive.
Black Panther and Venom make a striking pairing, which will be available exclusively at GameStop.
The Pop! available exclusively at Walmart proves that even Venom can’t contain the hellfire framing Ghost Rider’s head.
The Venomized Loki Pop! available exclusively at Target marries the god of mischief’s trademark gold and green coloring with Venom’s penchant for black. It’s undoubtedly terrifying considering what Loki and Venom might accomplish together.
The fearful spectre of Carnage’s red and black figure with axes for hands is available exclusively at FYE!
Coming in September!"

Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
