Expertly stepping into the shoes of Agent Venom as seen on Instagram, Ernie Cisneros (@s_e_n_t_i_n_e_l_) is no stranger to creating and wearing incredibly realistic full-body cosplay designs that pull from every corner of Marvel’s enormous comic book universe.

Making his Klyntar-imbued debut in 20011’sAmazing Spider-Man #654, by Fred Van Lente and Stefano Caselli, Peter Parker’s former high school bully-turned-decorated soldier, Flash Thompson, became the latest host in a long line of Lethal Protectors, making his mark on the character in a way that hadn’t been seen before. Allowing Flash to regrow his legs whenever he’s in uniform,Agent Venom’s skills on the battlefieldas a soldier mixed with the innate abilities of the Venom symbiote helped Flash become a new kind of hero, with his eventual evolution into Agent Anti-Venom only further solidifying that important role.
SHIELD’s Newest Symbiote Asset Could be the Next Agent Venom
SHIELD’s newest symbiote asset has bonded with the organization’s greatest super spy to create an agent unparalled at stealth and subterfuge.
Photographed by @witchhazel_cosplays,Ernie succeeds in bringing Agent Venom’s stylish Klyntar costume to life, with his slick black symbiote skin, blinding white spider logo, and light armor making this design pop in a way that looks as ifFlash has walked right off the comic page. Sharing wide shots of Ernie in the first two photos, the third shows Flash crouched in a very Spider-Man-esque pose, showing off the surprising mobility of Ernie’s design despite the thought that the outfit’s spiked shoulder pads, gauntlets, cowboy collar, knee and shin pads, and fully stocked utility belt could hinder his movement.
Agent Venom’s All-Black Symbiote Armor Looks Even Better in Live-Action
Venom: The Last Dancemay be the final entry inTom Hardy’sVenomtrilogy, but that shouldn’t discourage fans from wanting to see more of this character in real life. Not only is the cosplay community constantly finding ways to bring any number of Marvel heroes and villains to life on the regular —especially Venom variants— but it’s rumored thatVenom might factor into the much-anticipated fourth entry of Spider-Man’s MCU series of films, with Eddie Brock possibly being replaced as the symbiote’s host, hopefully paving the way forAgent Venom’s official introduction into the live-action version of theVenomverse.
