Project Venom
Sometime when Peter and Niall were still young, both Richard and Eddie Brock Senior teamed together to develop a revolutionary means to heal humanity of disease and illness. Their basis was to create a symbiote, The Suit; the project was named Project Venom. Richard made video diary entries about his progress so that Peter may have a chance to review these files when he becomes older. In the video, it revealed that Project Venom was a cursed project.

Richard and Eddie weren't able to complete their project and sought the partnership and resources of Trask Industries to help complete their project. As revealed in his video to Peter, Richard regretted putting his life's work into Trask's hands as they continued to interfere and eventually found a means to take away their own project away from them.
