Poison is the name of two fictional comic book characters, owned by Marvel Comics. The first exists in the Marvel Universe while the second lives in an alternate world featured in the one-shot comic What If?: Spider-Man: The Other.
[edit] Poison
A woman named Cecelia was imprisoned in a Cuban prison under charges of being a prostitute by a former lover. When she became mysteriously ill, she was transported to America, where she lived in a Florida refugee camp and gave birth to her son, Carlos. A mysterious other-dimensional entity named Ylandris appeared to Cecelia as she lay dying from her illness; Ylandris claimed to be dying as well, and proposed merging her essence with Cecelia to keep both beings alive. She took the name Poison, and became a vigilante, striking out primarly against those who had wronged her before.
Poison encountered Spider-Man, and the two travelled to the Nexus of All Realities in the Florida Everglades, where the Man-Thing lives. Ylandris was able to split herself off from Cecelia and use the Nexus to return to her home dimension. Poison retained her superhuman powers even after the departure of Ylandris.
[edit] Poison (What If?)
Poisin is also the name taken by the creature appearing in What If? Spider-Man: The Other. The creature is a combination of the Venom symbiote and Peter Parker.
