Beginning with 2018’s Venom, Sony’s Spider-Man Universe (SSU) isn’t exactly known for its loving adaptation of classic Marvel characters. Often criticized for producing soulless origin stories for supporting characters who don’t need their solo films, Sony has built a tedious cinematic universe in hopes of replicating the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Venom: The Last Dance marks the fifth installment of the franchise, with a sixth film, Kraven the Hunter, set to hit theaters on December 13.In its short but turbulent history, the SSU has struggled to produce any likable characters for viewers to identify with. While certain characters, notably Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock/Venom, have landed well with audiences, such are few and far between. There are far more Marvel characters that Sony has utterly ruined, soiling their reputation among the comic fandom.Despite a terrific setup that could have paid off nicely, Knull is utterly wasted in Venom: The Last Dance. The character was used heavily in marketing material for the film, yet only appears for a few minutes therein. Many fans criticized The Last Dance for teasing a main villain who never actually showed up for the final fight. Although the SSU plans to use Knull for future movies, it will be difficult for the franchise to move past its horrific misstep with the character’s first appearance.
