Internet Has Fun After PlayStation Offers Spider-Man Fans 19 Inches of Venom

The internet is having fun with a social media post from PlayStation offering Spider-Man 2 fans "19 inches of Venom".

While the post on X (below) is referring to the Collector's Edition of Spider-Man 2's 19 inch Venom statue, fans taking it as innuendo have had their fun in the replies.

"Weird choice of words PlayStation," said one user. "You mean the figurine, right?," asked another. "Someone in marketing today is getting a fat bonus cheque with the most nastiest side eye the department has ever seen," added a third. You can see more reactions below.

A Reddit post titled "Did they have to word it like that??" also shot to the top of the Spider-Man subreddit and garnered similar responses. "They knew what they were doing," said one user, while another dubbed the incoming villain "Daddy Venom".

The now infamous Collector's Edition was announced ahead of a limited edition Spider-Man 2 PlayStation 5 which also features Venom's nasty colourway. Developer Insomniac Games has also revealed a wealth of accessibility features coming to the long-awaited sequel ahead of its October 20 launch.
