Properly known as alpha-1 andregneric hypocortisol, the drug known as Venom is a rare and very expensive human growth pharmaceutical that made its way into street use after failing medical evaluation trials.
Venom was a failed by product of the US Military's ongoing efforts to reproduce the Super-Soldier Serum. Instead of attempting to rewrite genetic code the developers of A1AH tried to find a chemical medication that would bolster physical strength and eliminate the sensations of fatigue. While it was very successful, the side effects were extremely destructive. Test subjects developed hyperthyroidism, cardiac arrhythmias, and neuromusuclar disorders. The body would break bones at the rate new muscle grew. Not only was the drug highly addictive, it had a high prevalence of causing strokes and heart attacks. Enhanced cognition and recall were offset by anxiety, steroid rage, and PTSD.
The crimelord known as Bane is one of the few people able to withstand the side effects of A1AH. Ongoing low doses keep him at incredible, near-superhuman levels of fitness. In emergencies he injects himself with a higher dose of A1AH which neutralizes pain signals and allows his muscle group to operate without the self-harm restraints most humans put on their bodies. Even for Bane the side effects can prove too much; the more Venom he uses, the more aggressive and blindly hostile he becomes and the more stress he puts on his body.
