Before it was removed by the social networking service, the photo had reportedly received 15,000 likes and been shared more than 5,000 times in less than 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wake up this morning to a little note from Facebook saying I needed to remove the Venom image (the one in the bathroom) as it violates it\u2019s terms and conditions,\u201d Jay wrote on his Facebook page. \u201cNow I\u2019m not sure if this is needed to be done on my personal page or this page, however I have no idea as to how this picture is offensive. Obviously there is someone out there who is a little pissed that it\u2019s getting a lot of attention. Just letting you guys know in case I go AWOL at some point!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The costume was applied using liquid latex, an approach that\u2019s become popular for Venom-themed photo sessions. Jay\u2019s photoshoot is at least the second such Venom to appear on Facebook in the last couple of weeks, both of the sexy, female variety and both featuring the liquid latex instead of a traditional cloth or vinyl costume.<\/p>\n<p>Jay\u2019s Facebook page has nearly 10,000 fans and is not limited to superhero photography of the \u201cscantily-clad women\u201d variety; he also churned out some of the first really great cosplay photos featuring Superman\u2019s New 52 costume not long ago.<\/p>\n<p>In response to the image being banned, Jay hinted that he may do a live Venom-in-liquid-latex photo shoot at his New York Comic Con booth in October.<\/p>\n<p>via <a href=\"http:\/\/comicbook.com\/blog\/2012\/08\/01\/venom-cosplay-image-banned-from-facebook\/\">Venom Cosplay Image Banned From Facebook | ComicBook.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Follow Up<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ededed; border: 0px; margin: 5px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: NobileRegular; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.6em; color: #666666;\">For the second time in two days, Adam Jay\u2019s\u00a0<a style=\"background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: NobileItalic; text-decoration: none; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/superherophotography\">Superhero Photography Facebook page<\/a>\u00a0is under attack by complaints from users who object to a photo of model Freddie Nova as Venom, the popular Spider-Man villain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-24562\" title=\"VenomFreddie-2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/comicbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/VenomFreddie-2-200x300.jpg?resize=200%2C300\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ededed; border: 0px; margin: 5px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: NobileRegular; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.6em; color: #666666;\">The costume in question is liquide latex, providing the same effect as the special effects in the X-Men movies have done for Mystique over the years. Yesterday\u2019s image showed Nova being \u201ctaken over\u201d by Venom\u2019s alien symbiote, an effect that left her breast partially exposed, which was assumed to be the issue.\u00a0This time the image, shown at right, doesn\u2019t feature even partial nudity, only a skintight costume.<\/p>\n<p style=\"background-color: #ededed; border: 0px; margin: 5px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: NobileRegular; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.6em; color: #666666;\">Today, Facebook has levied a suspension on Jay, so that he cannot post for 24 hours on his Facebook page; as such, Nova issued a statement on his behalf, which reads in part:<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"background-color: #ededed; border-width: 0px 0px 0px 3px; border-left-style: solid; border-left-color: #cccccc; margin: 10px 0px 10px 30px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; quotes: none; color: #999999; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; line-height: 16px;\">\n<p style=\"background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 5px 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: NobileItalic; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6em; color: #666666; width: 560px; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;\">OK so I\u2019ve just had ANOTHER Facebook warning regarding one of the images I\u2019ve posted !!!

As often as not, especially if the objection is based in principle or religion, it seems that a broad base of support only further antagonizes those making the complaints. Whether they speak for the masses seems questionable, though; Jay\u2019s site gained nearly 1,000 fans between the time ComicBook.com wrote our first story on the issue yesterday and the time we learned of the second image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Facebook photo showing a female model being \u201ctaken over\u201d by the Venom symbiote has been pulled from Facebook, apparently for being too risque, according to Superhero Photography, whose photographer took the image.
