Kenneth Parmenter

Kenneth Parmenter stepped onto the Marvel stage in 1993, born from the creative partnership of David Michelinie and Mark Bagley in the pages of Venom: Lethal Protector #2 — right at the heart of Venom's breakout moment as a solo star. His nine catalogued appearances weave through some of the most intense corners of Venom's early solo mythology, including Venom: Sinner Takes All and Venom: The Hunted, placing him in gritty company alongside Eddie Brock himself and figures like Sentry and Firearm. A compact but genuine piece of early-'90s Marvel continuity, Kenneth Parmenter is the kind of supporting player that serious Venom completists will want on their radar.
