* ShipperOnDeck: Princess wants Deadpool to hook up with Valentine possibly more than the merc himself does.
* ShoutOut: Deadpool originally named the symbiote Renesmee, after Bella's dhampir child from ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' -- which was eating her from the inside out like the symbiote is doing to Wade. However, since he was afraid of getting sued, he changed the name to Princess.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: The Madness symbiote uses the fact that Corwin Jones has a daughter who he cares deeply about to blackmail him into doing what they want.

* MindHive: All of the six different symbiote voices are in the gestalt symbiote, and keeping them under control is no easy task. By the end of the series they're the ones controlling Jones, rather than vice versa.

* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Liz deliberately sends the Misery symbiote to amalgamate into the Madness symbiote, adding Carnage and Anti-Venom's consciousnesses into the mix on top of Scream, Agony, Phage, Riot, Lasher, and Toxin's. This--combined with Anti-Venom's general incompatability with other symbiotes, completely overloads Corwin Jones and causes him to have a FreakOut.

* HybridMonster: Formed from Alchemax's Scream, Agony, Phage, Riot, Lasher, and Toxin symbiote strains , combined via a new suit of Guardsman armor that combines all six symbiotes. Keeping control of the gestalt symbiote proves difficult, and when Corwin Jones tries to add the Carnage and Anti-Venom symbiotes to the mix it backfires badly.

* OmnicidalManiac: Bedlam's Child is too young to think in words, but like its "father" it is filled with insatiable bloodlust and the desire to kill everything other than itself.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: When Thor and Loki exploit the standard symbiote weakenesses to fire and sonics, Bedlam's Child -- too young and inexperienced to have developed a resistance -- time-jumps to get away.

--> ''"I can hear it! I've always been able to hear mine. Even before I was united with it. The voices! The voices told me they were coming. Told me to be quiet about them. Told me what I had to do!"''

One of five symbiotes forcibly spawned from the Venom symbiote, Scream is yellow and red, and focuses on PrehensileHair -like tendrils as its weapons.

Scream's first host was Donna Diego, a security guard selected by the Life Foundation to serve as a superpowered bodyguard. The de-facto leader of the group, Donna, alongside Agony, Lasher, Phage, and Riot, attacked Eddie Brock, but were defeated and seemingly killed by Venom and Spider-Man. Donna and the other Life Foundation mercenaries returned, having somehow survived, and begged Eddie for training to control their symbiotes. Venom refused, believing them to be lost causes like Carnage, and his prediction eventually came true: Donna had been diagnosed with schizophrenia, which was made worse by her symbiote's bloodlust, and ultimately suffered a psychotic breakdown, killing the other symbiotes' hosts before going into hiding. When the Xenophage attacked, Donna resurfaced, having regained her sanity and control over her symbiote, and helped Venom defeat it. Afterward, she discovered the creature's ship, the tracker of which brought her an alternate dimension where Venom and ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} were in the middle of battling supervillains Chimera and Dirtnap. Scream aided the two in defeating the villains, freeing those Dirtnap had previously absorbed in the process, and she and Venom left on amicable enough terms. Some time later, however, Eddie, on a crusade against the symbiotes, lured her into a trap that disabled her symbiote, allowing him to stab her in the head with a heated dagger, killing both her and her symbiote.

Years later, the Scream symbiote was resurrected by Knull and -- still bonded to Donna's skeleton and having imprinted her consciousness into itself -- began rampaging. Separated from Donna's corpse by Patricia Robertson, it bonded to her and succumbed to Knull's control, attacking Andi Benton. After Patricia sacrificed herself in order to protect Andi from Carnage, the Scream symbiote bonded to her. While Andi initially resented being bonded to the symbiote, they eventually developed a sense of camaraderie and came to accept one another as found family.

----

The first offspring of the Carnage symbiote. Cletus, disgusted at the notion of giving birth, forcibly bonded the infant symbiote, later named "Toxin" by Venom, to police officer Patrick Mulligan, who attempted to use it as a force of good, inspired by Spider-Man. Despite initial success, Patrick was murdered by the demon Blackheart, who cloned the symbiote and bonded them to clones of X-23. Agent Venom was blackmailed by the Crime Master into stealing the Toxin symbiote from Blackheart, although the Venom symbiote took control of Flash and tried to kill its progeny. Jack O'Lantern extracted the symbiote and took it to the Crime Master, who later forcibly bonded it to Eddie Brock. The symbiote initially took total control of Eddie's body and tried to kill Venom, but was ignited by Flash. It survived, still bonded to Eddie, and they agreed to work together until they could kill Venom before trying to kill each other.

Offshoots of All-Black created by Gorr the God Butcher.

An offshoot of the Grendel symbiote dragon bonded to the corpse of Cletus Kasady, reanimating him and turning him into Dark Carnage. Growing more powerful as its connection to Knull was restored, it was absorbed into the Venom symbiote after Cletus' death. Assimilating the Venom symbiote from the inside, it attempted to take over Eddie but was separated from the Venom symbiote and defeated.

!!! '''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/VenomSpaceKnight'' #2 (December, 2015)

Presumably born on the planet Klyntar, this symbiote was bonded to Tarna when she became an Agent of the Cosmos. As they came to trust each other, Tarna helped her symbiote master the ability to manifest a humanoid form without being bonded to her. Badly injured by Venom when it relapsed into its corrupted state, the symbiote was returned to the Agents of the Cosmos and presumably given a new host after Tarna's defection.
