Marvel and Stern unveil Venom pinball for San Diego Comic-Con

Stern Pinball and Marvel have teamed up once again to produce a pinball table that features the symbiote powered anti-hero Venom. This new game brings Eddie Brock, along with his many Klyntar infused friends and enemies, everywhere there are pinball machines. Stern and Marvel’s VenomPinballs are available in various configurations, ranging between $6,999 and $12,999.

Venom’s debut as a pinball table elevates the Marvel anti-hero to the status of Spider-Man, Iron Man, The Avengers, X-Men, Deadpool, and the Guardians of the Galaxy, all of which have been the subject of Stern pinball tables over the past two decades. (Oh, sure, Venom’s also starred in two live-action films, with a third on the way, but a pinball machine illustrates just how much he’s leveled up.) Venom’s game is stuffed with characters, including Carnage, Flash Thompson, Gwen Stacy, and Spider-Man (both Peter Parker and Miles Morales), as well as Venomized versions of the Hulk, Wolverine, and Captain America, should you prefer your Marvel superheroes Gooey.

This is the tale, or story as we like to call it, VenomVenom, the player of this pinball, must stop Carnage, the Klyntar’s god, from awaken Knull. Knull has plans to overthrow the entire planet. There are few problems, including world domination by an evil alien, that can’t be solved by smacking a pinball against something.

In a news release, Stern said that the Venom pinball artwork comes courtesy of Jeremy Packer (aka Zombie Yeti), who has previously worked on Stern’s Avengers: Infinity Quest, Deadpool” Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles tables. Mark Tremonti (guitarist of Alter Bridge, Creed) provides the music for Venom.
