Larsen was overdoing it at the time. He made Venom's mouth twice as big. So it's just a forward progression. Plus with "The Hunger", the symbiote 'evolved' and became even more vicious. And bigger.

The Hunger was terrible. The symbiote was feeding off cancer patients, wanting Spider-Man back (for the millionth time) due to his adrenaline levels, and was operating without Eddie Brock.
Good thing pretty much everyone disregarded it afterwards.

Yes, it was terrible; but two things stuck. Cancer retcon, and vicious symbiote.
Glad "Last Temptation" retconned it to where Eddie found out about the cancer AFTER becoming Venom. (Supposedly sometime after ASM 316 according to flashbacks.)

Gargan was human in size after he originally got the symbiote, and so was Angelo. The symbiote reverted back to monstrous size during the Ellis/Deodato T-bolts run, so I think it was an artistic choice, rather than a continuity one.

Fraction and others later tried to make sense of the change, saying the 'bigger he becomes, the more powerful he becomes' Exactly why we saw Venom able to (for some fucking reason) grapple it out with Colossus twice.

Was that ever stated, or do we surmise it is so, in order to make sense out of that scene?

A statement like that is kind of hard to forget.

I wonder if we'll get a proper handbook entry about Venom, this time.

I was scratching my head at that. Especially when he was trying to eat him and Colossus didn't just snap his fucking mouth in half. WTF?!

media.comicvine.com/uploads/4/46391/1672500-carnage_5_cover_by_heycat_d39lyx0.jpgOkay, that giant monster behind Classic Carnage (yes, it's classic - NOTICE THE METAL LEG NEAR SPIDEY'S HEAD) I theorize that all the corporate suit bioproducts (Royal Blue, ETC) will merge on Tanis and form a new Hybrid creature. And it'll be subservient to Cletus' will, since it was created from his symbiote. This is just my theory.
