So the backstory for how the symbiote got to earth is that Spidey needed a new suit on Battleworld, Thor got a new cape from a machine in a room full of machines, Hulk told Spidey that the machine was "in that room" and so Spidey got the symbiote.
Now here's the question, why was a clothing machine in the same room as the dangerous monster dispenser?
>Now here's the question, why was a clothing machine in the same room as the dangerous monster dispenser? As I recall, the backstory was elaborated on further. Symbiotes are like hyper intelligent Aliens, who are parasites that kill the host organism. The Symbiote that Spidey got was a freak that could only cohabitate a host's body. It was on the run from its own people.

And that was caused by Deadpool wearing it for like an issue. But I don't like the new lore, especially everything in Venom:The Space Knight. Fuckin hate that comic, it's story is shit, it's art is really good, but sometimes artist just steals things, like in issue 6 he just stole Tau and Eldar ship designs from Warhammer 40k(yes, GW is going to sue).
Hunter Lewis
That image is sexual.
Evan Jenkins
Yes it is.
Xavier Nguyen
Bendis retconned that so that the symbiotes actually are a species that bond to other organisms and help police the universe, except they live in a far off sector of space (basically they're like green lanterns). However some of the symbiotes got corrupted by their hosts, split off to other areas of space, and decided to be dickheads (this explains those old storylines about the planet of the symbiotes and symbiotes eating their hosts and shit).
Furthermore, during the last secret wars/battleworld run there was a Deadpool book that took place during the original secret wars and integrated Deadpool into the story. In this run Deadpool goes into the costume room before Spider-Man, fucks with the shields, and puts on the suit. Afterwards he takes the suit off and puts it back commenting that it was probably traumatized after being exposed to the stuff in his head.
I don't care for any of the backstories really. I probably dislike the new Bendis stuff most though.
In general I feel like symbiotes have so much underused potential. So often they're just used as a dumb muscle suit but it makes more sense to me for someone to use it similar to the gameplay in Prototype (except sentient, of course). youtube.com/watch?v=JvsUkUaJjYs
Charles Allen
Because it's alien clothing.
It might be living symbiotic creature, but it interacts with the host by becoming clothing.

I prefer The hood-maw is too much unnecessary bio-horror for me.
Jace Torres
Oh c'mon. The spaceknight story isn't bad. I'll admit, it started off a little boring with the "stop generic space pirate guy", but I thought it was fun seeing Flash be the big damn hero he always wanted to be. And I loved that they started making the symbiote into its own actual character. Plus, the latest arc where the symbiote went on a rampage and they had to stop it was fantastic. And we're getting Mania back. Plus, Kim Jacinto is an amazing artist.

He's the fucking worst host
Anthony Campbell
But that is a maw where a maw should be. Just having teeth sticking out of some random place is why it is unnecessary and I think dumb.
Men usually get the inhuman horror treatment when becoming monsters whereas women tend to be drawn as sexy regardless, which is why I kind of like the hidden maw under the shadow of the hood in .
Justin Carter
I just love how it's grabbing her between her legs, wonder if she gets pleasure from that...
Carter Lewis
Why is it symbiotes only seem to attack women when they are naked?
Lincoln Green
>Why is it symbiotes only seem to attack women when they are naked?
Symbiotes are personally and morally offended by clothes and clotheswearing heretics. Think of how many times Eddie would rebond with Venom fully clothed only to suddenly be running around with his Brock out and about.
I swear, Eddie and Wolverine probably were tied for most nude male appearances in the old days.
Cameron Gomez

Gavin Ross
So who do you think is going to be the new Venom in Marvel Now? They said it's all new so now Flash and Eddie. (Also I don't think Carnage is ending, so Eddie's still gonna be Toxin).
Matthew Smith
I sometimes wonder what the canon effect of symbiote transformation is? Or is it that when you're not totally bonded it's just covering you, but after bonding it does pic related?
Dylan Cook
I have no idea, but I hope it's either Mania or Kaine.
If we're really lucky, something will go wrong with the purification process, and Mania's symbiote will be cured of only the demon, and become the classic Venom that they advertised. Then Flash can still be Agent Venom with another Venom around. I mean, Marvel's all about having multiple heroes with the same name right now, right? 2 Spider-men (3 if you count 2099) 2 Thors 2 Captain Americas 2 Iron men (except one's gonna be a girl) 2 Hawkeyes 2 Novas 2 Wasps What's wrong with 2 Venoms? Then Flash could be like the mentor of the book, trying to hold her back from her more violent tendencies.
Oliver Campbell
It varies from author to author.
Lincoln Flores
Yeah sometimes they can totally goopify the wearer, which must involve some form of internal disintegration and later reintegration.
You might very well become a mess of barely cohesive cells when properly bonded.
David Scott
>Then Flash could be like the mentor of the book, trying to hold her back from her more violent tendencies.
That would be my ideal situation, honestly.
Carter Nguyen
>Yeah sometimes they can totally goopify the wearer, which must involve some form of internal disintegration and later reintegration. >You might very well become a mess of barely cohesive cells when properly bonded.
I kinda dig this take since it one, further shows just how other-worldly the symbiote is and two, would make sense why a host would be dying or at least temporarily at their very worst when separated from the suit. You body would have to readjust to being "whole" , singular, and normal.
Charles Johnson
The symbiote can do some straight up wacky shit if you're bonded on a molecular level like Carnage
Adam Brooks
That was never canon in the comics. That's been used in adaptations like the 90s cartoon.
Levi King
I miss Jenna. She was there briefly, but I liked Bock having someone to care for.
If Carange continues further, I wouldn't mind an arc with a focus on Brock and having her get a cameo or at least a mention.

To keep this thread going and not just disappear, I'd like to foster some discussion.
How would you do an MCU Venom?
I remember an user several months back had the idea of Pete being assigned to work with Brock and shadow him. He was a bit brash and intense but a good guy. They eventually became pals, but he kept getting a bit annoyed with Pete flaking out. Things come to a head when they crack a big case, Pete, using his powers, gets the big scoop and at the Bugle everyone's congratulating Pete for the amazing photo, but Jonah chews out Brock for not keeping up with him and Brock loses it steadily from there.
I'd love for them to stick to that angle. I like Brock and Pete having a connection before things hit the fan, I felt they did it well in Spectacular Spider-man.
Anyways I'd like:
-A reference to how Brock was at the Daily Globe, but with hims rising talents the Bugle engaged in a bidding war and he went over
-Have Ann in his life and his father in the background. It'd be clear there's some tension between the two and it's a serious sore spot for Brock so Pete NEVER mentions it after a particularly scary moment when a joke goes awry.
-One of the story elements that they could foster for a later sequel or spin off if they like is Kasady is on the loose and there's a continuing manhunt.
-Kasady would be his old serial killer self, but expand on the philosophy he's got going on in the comics, almost make him a leader of a movement, something about exposing the hypocrisy of everyday life (See: Carnage Mind Bomb) and that everyone needs to embrace death, violence, hedonism and....Carnage.
What about you guys? Share some symbiote love!

I like Flash and Brock for different reasons, but in the case of the films, I can't see them doing Agent Venom for the foreseeable future so I'd be fine with them avoiding that entirely.

It's like an anime where only people with a good synch rate can have super-powers The close bonds of the elite cute anime school girls tend to top out at something like 95% Harem MC gets 98% and 100% when he goes blank and enters berserker mode
Carnage is at 100% all the damn time because fuck you, he's Carnage
John Lewis
Oh, and he also killed everyone in the anime school because, again, fuck you, he's Carnage

I imagine true merging is like being taken over by The Thing alien, only consensual. Your cells have been replaced with human/symbiote hybrid cells over time.Appearing like yourself is purely preference fro your past selves identity, like alex mercer

Again alex mercer comes up I had completely forgotten that game for like 5 years and played it again recently. Goddamn that game was GOAT (on the first playthrough)

Asher Ortiz
Last night I finished vol. 2 of the Rick Remender Venom. It was great, but Remender tends to have these expansive emotional parts I skip. While they're great stories, they spend too much time dwelling on Flash's alcoholic father. Even AFTER that issue is resolved.
Venom has always been one of my favorite villains. I would host that symbiote.
