Venom vs The Lizard

Updated

Here is some newly completed artwork depicting a battle between Venom and The Lizard, two Spiderman villains from Marvel comics. Here is a short story I wrote inspired by the illustration:

I was wakened from my sleep by a sudden, and thunderous crash from outside. Had there been a car accident? No, the sound came from my window facing the alley behind my apartment. Rising from my bed, I hurried to the window as another powerful impact broke the night's silence.

Looking below I saw no wrecked vehicles, but rather two figures thrashing in the shadows of the alley. Were a couple of drunks fighting, or perhaps someone was being mugged? No, their movements were too fast, the figures were a blur as they ferociously threw each other from one side of the alley to the other. Then there were the sounds, inhuman snarling, and hissing, more reminiscent of some kind of feral animals.

Finally, the pair rolled out of the shadows and within the edge of a street lamp's light, all but flattening a metal dumpster in the process. To my horror, the battling pair were indeed not human, or at least not entirely. I recognized the monsters from the news as the alien symbiote and its host, called Venom, and the mutated scientist known as The Lizard.

I could only guess what had started the clash, but as they clawed and snapped their jaws at one another, it appeared this contest would be to the death.
