Remembering how I watched a silly recap of the 2 sinister six eps (do not ask what my reaction was seeing the electro and shocker scenes again (there’s a ramble sitting a server somewhere .) BUTTT one thing that really stood out to me was the 2nd sinister six ep. Because like. OURGHHHHHHH. Made me remeber that mysterio set up an illusion that shocker and doc ock were the final duo AND MAN. As much as I find Mysterio in the sinister six really fun, I really do wish we got a Spideman Vs. Shocker and Doc Ock. LIKE ARGHH I need to go on a full on ramble about their dynamic (and how I would further dissect it ) but mannnnnnn

Let's say Venom joined the Sinister 9 (both rosters + Monica) What are his relationships with each of them?

I have come to the conclusion that letting Venom join the Sinister roster is an absolutely bad idea. And here’s why.

Electro: This is actually the most interesting relationship, because Electro and Eddie go back and forth between trying to ignore each other and trying to connect with each other. Electro still feels like Eddie is his enemy and can’t understand what he went through. His memories still sting. Eddie let Electro go long ago, and he figures if “Max” wouldn’t let him in then, he won’t let him in now. The Symbiote isn’t a fan of Electro, and encourages Eddie to keep ignoring him. There is a moment, though, when the two are alone, and Electro TRIES, he really does, to rekindle their friendship. He points out how he and Eddie have both become monsters, and they have this in common, but seeing how Eddie gets along with the Symbiote is inspiration for Electro to make peace with his own powers - at which point, no matter what Eddie would have thought on his own, the Symbiote takes over and insists that “We are NOT a monster! We don’t know what you’re talking about, and WE DON’T CARE!” They don’t really try to interact positively after that.

Sandman and Rhino: They think Venom flips between a real grouch and too creepy. Neither one trusts him. 

Shocker and Mysterio: Are okay with Venom so long as he respects Shocker’s seniority and Mysterio’s general view that he’s better than everyone else and follows both their orders. Which he DOESN’T. So things are NOT OKAY. 

Vulture: Doesn’t care if Venom follows his orders, just so long as he pays him some respect. Which Venom doesn’t, so things are NOT OKAY.

Kraven: Wants to prove he is dominant over Venom through physical combat. The next time Venom puts a toe out of line, it is going to be a duel to the death. 

Doc Ock: Distrusts Venom at first because, pettily enough, he’s a result of a Connors experiment, not an Octavius one. After some time, he decides to give Venom a chance. And he is actually very lenient with him, seeing him as very talented, but when he gets more familiar with how much Venom is getting on everyone’s nerves and disrupting the team dynamic, he starts to have second thoughts. Then Venom decides he’s not taking orders from Ock either, and NOBODY LIKES HIM.

Monica/Austrorioxa: Tries to put him in his place verbally. This backfires horribly, as Venom doesn’t back down no matter what’s said to him, and Monica ends up very scared of him, to the point where he can completely and totally boss her around. Eddie might feel a twinge of remorse, since she was the Cool Big Sister of their school, but then again, her being a reminder of the past (who he wasn’t even connected to) makes him even angrier with her. 

Venom probably tries to kill everyone on the team at least once.
