The large window up front shows the figure from three sides, will the open back panel gives you a great view of the included Icons comic book. The Icons packaging is really growing on me with time. Note that Spider-Man was initially to come in this wave, but has been postponed until the next wave. There will also be variants shipping of both figures, but they haven't started to hit yet. You should see them at Target and other stores soon though, and I have some online suggestions at the end of the review. He and the Hulk are shipping right now, and are showing up at Toys R Us first.
I suppose that since he's part of a group of figures called 'icons', that includes Hulk, Captain America, Wolverine and Iron Man, that he truly has become one of the major players in the Marvel universe. Toybiz selected Venom for the second release of their new 12" Icons line. And there you have an interesting relationship, whether neither character is capable of seeing the other in any way outside of their very black and white definition. And while Venom does help those he considers 'innocent', Spider-man has always treated him as one of the evil doers, a homicidal maniac that simply must be put away. Is Venom a bad guy? He certainly looks that way, but he's always considered himself one of the good guys, who just happens to hate Spider-man with every fiber of his symbiotic body. He's one of those rare modern creations that has actually had legs, becoming more popular with time and an actual mainstay of the Spider-man universe. Venom first hit the comics in 1988, and was drawn by a much younger Todd Mcfarlane. They'll finally get an onscreen version of one of his most famous foes, Venom. Spider-man 3 is going to give fans - at least some of them - what they've been clamoring for now for a long time.
