Biography[]
Project Symbiote[]
Origins of the Project[]
In recent decades several unique meteorites have landed on Earth, each of these meteorites carried with them traces of an unknown alien species with unusual characteristics. Many of these samples were collected by SHIELD, labeled 084s, and hidden away along with any evidence of alien contact. The samples were studied and some came to the conclusion that the alien biology might hold the key to develop a revolutionary means to heal humanity of all illness and eliminate all forms of disease. After the initial tests, subjects began to show promising signs of enhanced regeneration and increased physical attributes, but unfortunately all subjects eventually displayed extreme violent behavior and split personalities. Because of unfortunate events resulting from the tests, Project Symbiote was shut down and all samples of the alien biology were permanently locked away. Years later, after the fall of SHIELD, these 084 specimens were recovered by the United States military. Eventually, Oscorp Industries took possession of the samples, and after learning what could be achieved, Oscorp decided to reactivate Project Symbiote and accomplish the goal of creating a symbiotic biosuit which could encase and augment a human host body.

For years, Oscorp resumed work with Project Symbiote and made some initial advancements with successful bonding and improving upon the original project. However, to take the project to the next level, Oscorp Industries sought out one of the original scientists who worked on the first Project Symbiote, a skilled bioengineer who fought to keep the project alive, Edward Brock Sr. Brock believed that the project needed to be completed no matter the cost because the benefits outweigh the risk and the end justifies the means. Brock himself made attempts to continue the project even after it was shut down by SHIELD, and because of this, Brock’s reputation and career were buried by SHIELD. Unfortunately, Brock Sr. passed away years prior to Oscorp’s Project Symbiote, and so Oscorp searched for Edward Brock’s next of kin and his estranged son, Edward "Eddie" Brock Jr.
