The titular main character ofSpongeBob SquarePantsis infected with the Venom symbiote in a freaky and detailed 3D model art video that shows off his detailed transformation.SpongeBob SquarePants' pop culture referencesare littered throughout the animated series, including some on-the-nose nods to media likeLord of the FliesandDungeons & Dragons. The series' hundreds of episodes are filled with various nods to other properties or ideas that inspired particular episodes. However, none of these brands have had much direct crossover with the yellow sponge and his friends.
Now,Simeon Fiksahas created a highly-detailed model ofSpongeBob SquarePants' protagonist infected with the Venom symbiote. The video shows Fiska turning a regular, yellow sponge into a half-SpongeBob, half-Venom creation, a reference to 2018’sVenommovie poster. This includes covering half the sponge with black glue, using pencil tops as teeth before painting over them, and even incorporating one of SpongeBob’s front teeth into the final product. At the end, the creation is submerged in water, and puffs of color surround it. Check out the full video of the creation below:
What The SpongeBob-Venom Hybrid Says About The Characters
The Pair Crossing Over Is Aesthetically Possible
Although SpongeBob and Venom are two very distinct characters,the 3D art shows just how aesthetically cool the pair would look when put together. The freaky detail reflects how Venom infects his host, the most common being Eddie Brock, and how a conscious pairing is formed between host and parasite. This is bolstered by both franchise’s longstanding popularity, withSpongeBob SquarePantspermeating online culture in recent years thanks to memes, andVenom: The Last DanceendingSony’s trilogy about the character.
Will Venom 4 Happen? Everything We Know
Now that Venom: The Last Dance is here, will Sony continue to build out its Spider-Man Universe with a possible Venom 4 in the near future?
As for the duo crossing over in an official capacity, it seems unlikely given the very different paths both characters are on. WhileSpongeBob SquarePantsseason 15is continuing the series' tradition of having child-friendly storylines,Venomis built for a more adult audience, with movies for teenagers and some comic stories for a mature crowd. Because of the lack of intersection between both audiences, it doesn’t seem like an official crossover will ever come to fruition. However, this doesn’t take away from the very unique and well-meshing design of Fiska’s work.
Our Take On SpongeBob and Venom Crossing Over
An Unlikely Yet Cool Pairing
Despite there being a small chance there’s ever a crossover betweenSpongeBob SquarePantsand Venom, the concept of the symbiote in Bikini Bottom is an amusing one. His infecting SpongeBob would essentially turn the pair into superheroes on par with Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, potentially pitting them against villains like Plankton or the Dirty Bubble. The idea sounds like an interesting parody the series could cover, pulling some inspiration from Fiska’s design in the process.
