Venom 3: The All-Black Necrosword & Knull's Rise To Power

What are The All-Black Necrosword Powers?

The All-Black Necrosword is considered one of the most powerful weapons in the Marvel Universe and one that was introduced in Marvel Comics during 2018 - showing just how powerful this weapon really is and even what it is capable of. It was created by the God of the Symbiotes - Knull - as the first Symbiote to ever be forged, an act which allowed Knull to take on a number of those who had gone up against him.

The All-Black Necrosword is capable of slaying even those considered the most powerful gods - It has the capacity to control the flow of shadow (an extension of those powers associated with Knull, its creator) and is linked to the Venom symbiote - those powers associated with the symbiotes have a remarkable connection to the Necrosword - serving as a source for the sword's power. Those powers allow it to control minds, absorb the powers of its wielder - a critical part of Knull's history as the weapon's original owner - to grant those wielding this weapon more formidable capabilities, and is also considered to be a tool for shaping how those wielding it, are impacted by this power, which may make those wielding the All-Black Necrosword a formidable threat to those that seek to defeat them.
