This is my best current take on a Venom Justice deck. I started out by intending to port over most of my successful Ant-Man deck because I feel like in Multi-Gun and Venom's Pistols there's fair amount of simmilarity to the Army of Ants and how you can reshape Ant-Man's stats by changing form. However I quickly found that there were as much or more differences between the two as there were similarities so the final deck doesn't actually share that many cards.

I've gone for a really significant amount of thwarting power so he can cope with all the dangers of Galaxy's Most Wanted, and the strength of that was demonstrated when he was able to thwart his way through Red Skull's side scheme deck and keep it well under control. There's 9 Thwarting events on top of Heroic Intuition to buff your basic thwart actions, with limited offense from just Turn The Tide. The idea being that a lot of the time you will be able to control the schemes through events and thus free up Venom and his weapons to deal damage instead. That ability of Venom's to flex his basic attack between powerful thwarts and powerful attacks means that Thwart events are almost dual-purpose as attacks because they free Venom up to deal damage.

Otherwise there's not really a tremendous amount to say: I don't think there's many wild punts in the card pool it's all proven effective and efficient tools. The couple of exceptions are where I've been sensitive to bringing enough Physical/Wild resources to help pay for Grasping Tendrils - that's at least part of the reason why Agent Coulson turned into Rocket Raccoon, and also why I kept Target Acquired after taking Agent Coulson out.

I've been playing it alongside my Spider-Man protection and he's defeated all the toughest villains in the game on Expert (not played vs Ronan yet, but Nebula, Zola, Ultron, Red Skull are all dealt with). I don't think Venom is particularly exciting or interesting as a hero - I prefer the Ant-Man form changes for giving me 'more to do' even if it is just folding and unfolding my hero card - but there's no doubting that he's powerful and a real workhorse of a hero who can clear a ton of threat while still contributing some offense whenever he gets the chance.
