[Venom75]

I've been a Spidey fan for as long as I can remember,but at times,I love Venom even more than Spidey. I'm just obsessed with the character!

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Cool! I had a Marvel icons SPider-Man and Venom figure, but one of them had a broken finger and I needed money, so I very sadly had to bring them back. Plan on buying them again though.

Thats how I am. I'm really a villain lover, I get into things sometimes because I like the villains. Like with Spider-Man I love it because of his rogue galelry, but Venom is on top with me. I like tragic characters for some reason.

Whoa! Looks marvelous! I'll definitely have to check it out.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Long time no see, Acturus. Good to have you back, old friend.

 

[Arcturus]

Greetings SMH12! Long time no see indeed. I've been so busy lately, I just returned from my trip to Australia a few days ago. Did I miss out on a lot? What's new with the world of Venom?

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Ahhh, I see, and no, there hasn't been alot of new Venom things, though, Sinister Spider-Man is out.

 

[SymbioticToxin]

Oh hey, someone else I haven't met yet! Woot! (Sorry, a little to much coffee this morning)

I just finished Diane Duane's "The Lizard Sanction" and it was great. I loved the Spider-man and Venom moments. I feel she got a great handle on his character as well as Spidey, and MJ. Has anyone else checked this out?

 

[HELL N' SPIDERS]

i need to get more of Diane's work I only have the venom factor but i loved it.

Ive read both "The Venom Factor" and "The Lizard Sanction". Yes she definitely knows how to capture the feel for the characters.

I keep trying to figure out why Venom: Dark Origin turned out the way it did and I think I know why. Let's follow the bread crumbs.

1. We know for a fact that Venom: Dark Origin was 1st announced before Spider-Man 3 hit theatres, although details about the comic were extremely limited. The only known info was A) promotional art of Venom (this art was used for part 3 of the finished story), and B) Angel Medina was the artists. Other important details (release dates, the writer, if it was a one-shot or a limited series or an on-going, if it took place in 616 continuity, if it was a flashback story) were unknown.
2. Even though this story was 1st announced BEFORE SM3, it didn't come out until a great deal (at least a year) AFTER SM3.

I keep wondering why Zeb Wells went the direction he did with DO. Why was Eddie portrayed the way he was, mostly. I think Dark Origin was really supposed to come out as a SM3 tie-in, and for reasons still unknown, did not. This would explain a few things...

1. Why Eddie looked an awful lot like a comic-styled Topher Grace-Eddie Brock. I didn't see it at 1st, but the more I reread DO, the more I got the impression that the way he looked in DO was too similar to what SM3's Eddie Brock (Topher) would have looked like in comic-form.
2. Why Eddie in DO was portrayed as an irredeemable s***, which is a great contrast to classic 616 Eddie Brock. Movie Eddie behaved very much like DO Eddie: they were both *****es.

The only explanation I have for the delay? (In other words, why the hell release a movie tie-in a year after the movie's release?) Marvel was in the process of the whole Spider-Man retcon (OMD/BND) status quo. They didn't just want the Venom comic to be a movie tie-in. It was also going to be an updated origin for the characters of Eddie and the symbiote. They probably (probably) decided to have the story come out sometime after that so the could "fit" the Venom origin in with the new Spidey timeline (ya know, the OMD altered one; doing an origin story where Peter and MJ are married when they weren't in the new timeline).

On a different note, I've expressed how Marvel's ideas for Anti-Venom are just rehashed, redone ideas from the "Lethal Protector" era of Venom, right? How they're just repeating "good guy" Venom all over again and calling it "life-chnaging and new"? Well, it just hit me that that's even truer now with "New Ways to Live". Eddie "started" his career as a vigilante as Anti-Venom in New Ways to Die, and that's being followed by the story New Ways to Live, featuring the Punisher. That's just the same thing as when Eddie started his career as a vigilanted as Venom in Lethal Protector, and Marvel then followed that up with Funeral Pyre, featuring Punisher.

Lethal Protector, Venom's 1st vigilante limited series, followed by Funeral Pyre, his 2nd limited, co-starring the Punisher.

NWTD, Anti-Venom's 1st vigilanted arc, followed by NWTL, his 2nd arc, co-starring the Punisher.

BND-era Spidey is nothing spectacular, and I'm sensing this again with BND-era Eddie.

How about we wait to read the series before we cry Foul mmk?

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

How about we wait to read the series before we cry Foul mmk?

I have to agree. We really shouldn't be complaining this early, and honestly, I'm looking foward to the Anti-Venom/Punisher story.

 

[HELL N' SPIDERS]

I feel that Anti-Venom is going to act very differently than Venom because he is healing people right?
Like diseases and cancer and fighting crime as well. I feel like now that he has this healing ability it might teach Eddie that he can do more than just protect people. He can change their lives for the better, in so many ways.
