In The Amazing Spider-Man, why does Peter not get badly affected by the poisonous venom spider, while both Harry and Connors (used lizard serum) do?



Best Answer

This is explained in the second film - Peter's father altered the Spider's DNA with his own, meaning only Peter could have gained the benefits from it. This was the ensurance that after Peter's father's death (which his father expected would happen) the power would stay safe and die with him.

Here is the direct quote from the script:

Richard Parker: It doesn't matter because there is something else that Norman doesn't know. The Human DNA that I implanted in the spiders was my own, which means that without me, without my bloodline, OsCorp can never replicate or continue my experiments.

How did the symbiote affect Peter Parker?

The machine unleashed the symbiote instead, which overtook Spider-Man's body and became his new suit. The symbiote formed a connection with Peter, and was able to adapt to Peter's thoughts. After returning to Earth in Amazing Spider-Man #252, Parker decided to keep his new black suit.

Does the Venom symbiote love Peter?

Although the alien symbiote regularly claims he wants to \u201ceat your brain!\u201d Venom's interest in Spider-Man goes beyond seeing him as a food source. The Venom symbiote actually has a twisted love/hate relationship with Peter Parker, seeing him as an ideal host but resenting him for abandoning it.

What happens to the Spider that bites Peter Parker?

The spider's venom was now radioactive so instead of killing Peter the radioactive venom gave Peter spider like powers. The spider also passed on it's knowledge of how to make spider webbing which Peter would use in his Web-Shooters. The spider then died after it bit Peter.
