YOU GUYS... VITAL NEW INFORMATION FROM THE VENOM COMICS... HE NEEDS MOUSE BITES TO LIVE...

[aamy2100982]

I was scraping my brain on why I liked Lee Prince as Venom

I was thinking that it's not just because, although he is a disgusting bitch, Lee is actually kind of an attractive and interesting character who was wasted by being written off shortly after his first appearance and currently only popping up occasionally in unproductive ways.

But because in fact, the symbiote is given a personality throughout his comic.

Something I hate about writers giving the symbiote to a new character is that many don't really use the symbiote as a character, but rather as an item that gives a power buff to the main character. And the symbiote is left as a shell with no feelings, perspectives or thoughts.

Everything that happens through this comic is toxic as hell... But IT IS something

I like that they give this perspective to the symbiote where they're really not in control anymore.

And I also find this little form of the symbiote very cute.

I think it means a lot. Because if you notice, when the symbiote was with other hosts, it used to talk to them from inside their head, often not needing this visual representation of the symbiote separated from its host, but just in text boxes.

The symbiote's small form is a way of representing how inferior it feels with Lee, and the fact that it speaks to him from outside its body represents how detached they are as host and parasite.

It is a good representation of the symbiote I think so. Because it is a big and very resonant change.

Think that after this comic (issue #1 - #6 Venom 2016) we had the "this is a love story" comic

(issue #150, also 2016)

That is just:

Eddie: I did bad things that I didn't think I would do after a long time. All this has happened since I got back together with my partner.

Father: That sounds like shit, you should stay away from that person.

They leave the Church, Symby manipulates Eddie into thinking that it only do what Eddie wants, what "they" want, fight Scorpio, Eddie is left unconscious.*

Symby proceeds to try to kill the father for telling Eddie to stay away from them.* (he didn't die tho)

Do you see what I see?

I'm going to assume no. Lee Price's comic is literally the opposite of this. And I find that incredible. This comic was literally after the symbiote was taken away from Lee Price, but it really hits home. Because this isn't the first time Symby has done similar things to control Eddie.

Like giving him cancer to make Eddie believe he needs the symbiote or getting really jealous when Eddie tries to meet other people. Even if it's not in a romantic way.

I think we all collectively hate Lee Prince, but I wouldn't say his comic was bad. I wouldn't say he used to be a bad character either. It totally reimagined what the symbiote can be and I think that's great. Not every writer takes the time to explore the symbiote as a character when it's not with someone other than a Brock (Eddie and Dylan) or Flash, sometimes. So it's great what they were able to do with Lee even though it was little to no time.

I hope they do something interesting with him

Or at least let him die in peace.

I’m coming, LOVE.

The reunion between Eddie and Venom was brief. Anti-Venom Flash Thomson used his new powers to break the bond between Eddie and Venom. Flash kidnapped Venom and the two are trying to find their way back to each other.

Never separate these two again. They belong together and they will always find a way to each other! Eddie really found Venom only because he had a feeling deep inside that led him to it.

[johannepetereric]

"Thank you, Spider-Woman" OMG SPIDER-WOMAN--

"Obviously my other trust you more than me," Very Obvious Bitter Voice. "I didn't know we were...expecting."

"The only reason [he] did what [he] did was to save you. I was going to drag your keister to jail.

"[He] showed me--in my head--that [his] previous children had all become monsters."

"It's true, Eddie. Didn't want my baby to be another monster." OMG!

"So give [him] a break, okay?"

"Wanted it to be a hero. A hero like you. Like Venom."

i just finished reading the 2016 venom series and some thoughts

the start was awful to get through bc the host was just a very abusive pos to the symbiote and killed everyone and everyone and every page was full of dread

the dinosaur people arc was random but i did like it. some parts reminded me of earlier venom lore where he helped an underground commune. i loved the friendship between a dinosaur and that girl and i wish there was more of her but she was like immediately over caring about it all when the day was saved ??

there were some random chapters with spiderman and i loved how his humour became more apparent in the pages by the way the panels and 'pacing' were done. good stuff

buttt there were also chapters (some w spiderman i think? idk just too confusing) with the x-men (side characters i think??) which were so fucking random and im sure you had to have read 986364 other comics simultaneously to get where those stories were at or who anyone was. and the pages didn't show 'as seen in [previous edition of ___] / also see [series]' like the venom/spiderman pages did in the 80s

i just hated the random x-men chapters in general like why tf are they in space rn and so much seemed to have happened before it started but was never shown? and i know it's marvel but i hate the 'epic showdown between like 6 guys against another 6 guys' spread page. theres something about it that makes me so. not interested. im not cut out for comics man

the way the scientist guy was drawn felt rly mean like. yeah stylistic choices and we fat ppl exist but the way it was drawn for him felt like a charicature sometimes?

idgaf about mpreg stories but have to agree with the fandom that that arc was EXTREMELY wholesome. rarely seen eddie smile this much in the comic. i was SO confused though bc a scientist(?) called it a stillbirth but then the baby was alive and am i just misunderstanding what stillbirth means or??? no mention of it being a misunderstanding or anything. very confusing. maybe i also like the last arc bc it had one of the best art styles

[kitausuret]

thinking about how from June 2017 - April 2018, Dr. Steven was written as like literally the most wonderful man in the universe and someone I would do literally anything for. even Dan Slott couldn't fuck him up completely (but one of his colorists did, but that's another story). but I think if I were to make a banner for Dust to Dust it would literally just be panels of Dr. Steven with little heart stickers and doodles for literally the best character to be introduced in Venom vol 3.

There's so much we don't know about him though!! What's his full name? Is "Dr. Steven" some kind of alias? What are his hobbies? Relationship status? How did he get into xenobiology? Does he keep a poster of Reed Richards in his apartment? Does he actually have a really normal and fairly stable life and supportive family? Is it possibly because he has worked around the likes of occasionally ex/current supervillains and criminals that he's just "Dr. Steven"?

I just think he's neat!!

We here on tumblr.gov sure get into a lot of tiffs over what does and does not constitute monsterfucking. And the moment I laid eyes on this post, I knew I was gonna have to press-gang my bestie into creating this, our finest work,

The Monsterfucker Iceberg

@tinynaught pulled most of the names and did the initial sorting; I helped flesh it out and created the finished product. Feel free to fight amongst yourselves.

Order is based entirely on the looks you would get telling people you wanna fuck that; logistics were not strictly taken into account.

VENOM (2016-2018) by MIKE COSTA

[goonssquadd]

90s Eddie Brock wears a gay little cropped muscle tee, which is somehow less gay than modern era Eddie, who only wears venom made to look like clothes

[peterbscaprisweatpants]

[image description: a variation on the "They hated him" meme is captioned: Marvel rejected Costa's message.

"there is only one super hero story that IS a romance, and that's Venom."

"Shut up!"

They hated Costa because He told them the truth. Venom (2016) #165

No love, I need a hospital

Eddie wrote an article about the dinosaur colony that Venom and Eddie are helping. Unfortunately, it attracted the unwelcome attention of the Kraven. Now he's out for a new trophy.

Venom 2016 #156

I really can't believe that idiot forgot where the hospital was when he was there recently visit that priest !!

But he really did everything he could to help them and save Eddie.
