Who is the guy with blue eyes at the end of Venom 2?
But later, after the battle between Carnage and Venom has ended, we see that Mulligan isn't only still alive, but that his eyes are blue and glowing now. What does this mean? In the comics Mulligan became the host for the symbiote known as Toxin, which is an offspring of Carnage's.
In the present, he attempts to use Eddie Brock to investigate Cletus Kasady, but is seemingly killed during a battle between the Venom and Carnage symbiotes and Barrison. However, he absorbs a piece of one of the symbiotes, which later revives him and causes his eyes to glow blue.
The Toxin symbiote has a long and troubled history in the Marvel universe as both a villain and an anti-hero. Toxin's place in Venom and Carnage's genetic line and its difficulty with hosts have all helped define the symbiote and its ever-expanding place in the Marvel Universe.
In the comics, Patrick Mulligan was a former New York City Police Department police officer who became bonded to a symbiote known as Toxin. This symbiote, who was the offspring of Carnage, was the first symbiote who was an ally of Spider-Man.
Did they ever find out who killed Detective Mulligan?
Sean Ellis was 21 years old when he was convicted for the 1993 murder of Boston Police Det. John Mulligan. Two mistrials and a third that cemented his lifetime sentence spelled out Ellis's fate until 2015, when a court ruling reversed his convictions on first-degree murder and armed robbery charges.
Due to the fact that Venom trying to kill Toxin (again with the Venom kidnapping Toxin). Toxin now has a deep hatred for Venom, which coincides with Eddie's dislike of Venom.
During this fight, one thing became abundantly clear: as strong as Venom and Carnage are, Toxin is much, much stronger. As the 1000th symbiote born in the Venom family line, Toxin was destined for incredible feats, but he was also at risk of an even more severe mental collapse than Carnage's.
Born from Carnage as the 1000th symbiote in its lineage, "Toxin" was feared to be the strongest and most dangerous of their race by both Carnage and Venom besides Knull. Shortly after being born, the symbiote united with police officer Pat Mulligan.
To avoid a villain repeat, it's possible Venom 3 will position Toxin as the more heroic figure that he often is in Marvel Comics, and the two will team up against a different, hopefully visually distinct threat. Regardless, with Venom 3 set for release on November 8, 2024, more information should be on the way soon.
Sorry Venom fans, Venom 3 has been confirmed to be the last movie in the saga. Bad news Venom fans, but it looks like the franchise's upcoming third installment will be the alien symbiote's last dance as Sony has revealed that Venom 3 is the final film in the series.
With every symbiote, the ability to spawn a new puts the former in danger, as there is a possibility of the spawn is normally more powerful than the former. Knowing this, if venom were to spawn again, carnage would be rendered useless against the newer spawn, whether it be his or venom's.
By eating Carnage, Venom is effectively returning his spawn back to his former "unborn" state within Venom's mass, not taking anything he didn't already have into his cells.
Eddie and Venom arrive to fight Carnage, while Frances seemingly kills Mulligan by hanging him with a chain. Venom is overpowered by Carnage but provokes Frances into using her powers to separate Carnage and Cletus. Venom devours Carnage and kills Cletus, while the collapsing cathedral crushes Frances.
Venom sees Holland's Spider-Man on TV, licking the screen and remarking that "He looks delicious." The implication was clearly that the Symbiote wanted to go after Spider-Man.
The hierarchy of symbiote colors is now established, with red symbiotes being naturally stronger than black ones. The white Anti-Venom is considered one of the strongest symbiotes, further solidifying the hierarchy and establishing its position at the top.
The son of Carnage, Toxin, was believed to be the most powerful symbiote ever created. The raw power of Toxin was so great that he was feared even by the King in Black, Knull, creator and leader of the symbiotes.
When a symbiote offspring of Eddie Brock, AKA Venom, merges with serial killer Cletus Kasady, the result is the nightmarish murdering menace known as Carnage! Reborn from an alien creature, he's a more psychotic and dangerous being that spawns a family of symbiotes.
In his final scene, actor Stephen Graham shows off the glowing blue eyes of seemingly possessed police officer Pat Mulligan. Mulligan just so happens to share his name with the first host of the Toxin symbiote in Marvel's numerous Venom spinoff comics.
It could be that in the universe of the Venom movies, this type of strong bond is already known among the symbiotes to result in stronger specimens. This could explain why Venom is so fearful of facing an enemy with a ruddy hue.
Personality. Carnage is a sentient being of pure evil, shown by how moments after the symbiote was born it wreaked havoc in Prison during its escape. Carnage also has a deep hatred for its father, Venom, wanting to kill him so that he could be the only symbiote on the planet and thus unstoppable.
Carnage insisted on killing it, but Venom was concerned that as the 1,000th Symbiote of their line, "Toxin" could potentially become psychotic as a result of genetic breakdown.
Tom Holland's Spider-Man is unlikely to appear in Venom 3, despite speculation and the introduction of the multiverse in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The filming of Venom 3 was affected by the 2023 Hollywood strikes, but no public hints have been given about Holland's Spider-Man appearing in the film.
