| Kron Stone was always a bully as a child and became a violent psychopath who enjoyed killing families, and leaving only one member of the family he targeted alive. This was the case on the day he became responsible for the murder of Jake Gallows' (Punisher 2099) family and countless others during a massacre at an amusement park. Prisons no longer existed in 2099, nor did capital punishment, and criminals are only punished by an injection that artificially ages them based on the nature of their crime, social class, and the social class of their victims, and they weren't punished at all if their victims didn't subscribe to a private police service like Public Eye. Due to Kron Stone's high social standing he only walked away with a slap on the wrist for the murders he committed. Enraged by this Jake Gallows donned the identity Punisher 2099, and killed Kron's gang, then targeted Kron Stone himself, who wore a force field that protected him against high speed attacks like bullets and lasers, the Punisher had a solution to this though, slowly stabbing Kron with a knife and dumping his body into the sewer. Following the altercation Kron lay dying, his body brushed up against a black ball. The ball then bonded with him and formed a new Venom. The symbiote was described as having mutated over the years, and displayed new abilities in this timeline, including acidic blood and saliva. With this new power, Stone sought to emotionally torture his half-brother Miguel. |
