Three major efforts and three major strikes. The Gentle Giant version looked goofy too.
Cotton eye Joe? Anyway, I think at the very least there's a variety to choose from. I still think the bowen Venom where he's squatting on the ledge is still the best interpretation of him. Would lean to Xm if it wasnt for the crazy price tag

Bowens venom is definitley a top contendor pound for pound.

I liked both of those Bowens, the ledge version and the sewer version, which has that cool touch of Spider-Man trapped and drowning in the water, are both fantastic IMHO.

Some great deals on Bowens currently, I just bought a Logan, I sold it long time ago but had to have it back, signed by RB as well.

I'm pumped for this one. I'm keeping my pre-order and passing on the Prime 1. A tough pass but a pass all the same.

This piece is growing on me in a big way.

I'm not into the XM version, and the Prime 1 version is very similar to the XM in a lot of ways, and it's ridiculously huge.

Whether you like this one or not, it's certainly a lot different than the other two. I really dig the texturing; makes him look grotesque and the symbiote looks alive.

I still think the SS one has the best pose and base. I'm just not excited about the skin texture on him....waiting for in hand on him.
