New Venom

"The new Venom in Venom #1 is a new first appearance. A quick search for the name shows no previous appearances (however you know how characters always end up in back panels of other books eventually.) However, since this is a new first appearance, it should make the Frankie’s Comics Dell’Otto Variant even more interesting."

How is this a first appearance? Is there a new character or something that's going to be the suit's host?

Rumor is WRONG. Not a single Venom or Lee appearance happens in that book.

Just picked it up at lcs. No variants available.

 

Just read it. Was a good read. Interesting new character with a lot of backstory potential.

 

Venom needs a host that can be started from scratch. Maybe he will develop and they will keep it the status quo.

And with as many incarnations of "Venom" as there are, why is ASM #300 still considered Venom's first appearance and not ASM #252? (shrug)

 

Because ASM 300 is the first full appearance of (the original) Venom. It doesn't matter to ASM 300 that Venom (v.46) 1 is the first appearance of Venom XXLVII.

So is "Venom" the symbiote + host? Symbiote + Eddie Brock? Did the symbiote change betweeen ASM #252 and ASM #300?

 

I get that the industry has accepted ASM #300 as the first appearance of Venom. But that was Eddie Brock's Venom. Everything else seems to be symbiote + host.

 

Full disclosure - I loved Venom back in the 90's when I was a teen. I only know Eddie Brock as "Venom".

Eddie Brock IS Venom in my book. Anyone else in the suit is just a ripoff.

They did a great job of giving Venom a reason to hate Spider-man. Once they got away from that he dropped down the Villain chart for me.

 

I enjoy Carnage so much more for a long time simply because he was what he was. Until they turned him good for awhile. Again stupid Marvel.

 

Carnage has the ability to be unlike any Spider-man Villain. I just ever wonder if they will ever go down that road.
