Comics in this thread:>Venom #261
Bump if you're reading.
>>155277818Reading and then going to bed, thanks anon
Should've been Carol
And that's it. If you liked this, support your LCS or whatever.
>>155277875>DinnerAt least it's something. This issue seemed a little abrupt though. Seems weird we have two weeks to wait for QiB #4, then another two weeks to wrap it all up.
>>155277875>I was a cocky cuss back in the dayYou were a character back in the day.
>>155277818boopthank you, anon.
>>155277894>Poly-VenomThis is sort of like a shitpost I made a few years ago. This is actually a thing?
>>155277824>Venom has been throwing his shit at people for decadeskek
>>155277865Black Cat's mission has been referenced multiple times, which is a little weird since it's not out yet. They really borked the release schedule on this event.
>>155277818bump
>now they're bonded by choiceThey fucking aren't, the whole crux of this issue is this is not a choice for them. It's still not. This came up with MJ as well, why does Ewing keep forgetting the circumstances that bonded them together? He wrote the thing.Wake me when we have different people in charge of Marvel with a different talent pool.I like Carlos art, that's about it.
>>155277849Why is Reed bothering to stretch like that?
>>155277886isn't dylan like only one-third symbiote?
>>155279012That should be next month, then since I'm pretty sure this event and Venom run will be over by then
>>155279079Oh I'm talking the head-heads, Lowe, Brevoort and White gone. Just the rotted ones that are decades past their use by date. Not just another chapter in the event spam.So 2030 at the earliest. Lowe's been ASM's editor for 12 damn years.
>>155278640I suspect the move has been causing behind the scenes chaos because these guys can barely keep the ship straight even when it's business as usual.Issues are being delayed, release schedule is shot in the pot and we have world altering events one after the other.
>>155279106Breevort is going when Marvel moves to LA. I could see Lowe and White leaving but they're young enough to probably tough it out
>>155277894I love spider-mans black suit. I want him to fight Hella and knull as the king in black then go on cosmic adventures with MJ.
>>155279117Brevoort going is so good, it's just a damn pity his manifesto painted every room of the office before the damage was done.As for the other two, they are youngish but still approaching fifty(?). It's why I'm optimistic about 2030.What we need is just a whole new generation in. These same guys have been sucking each-other off for two decades. It's not a talent pool but a talent ouroboros.
>>155279117Why are they going to LA?
>>155279347Marvel has been given its marching orders by the Mouse to close up shop in NY and move to LA. This is a pretty fucking massive change, and it's going to lead to the biggest changes in a comparatively very short period of time - consider the complete lack of turnover in the many decades prior and compare it to what's coming.
Feels kinda dumb that they would be trying any of this while Knull and Hela are still an active situation.
>>155279357And now they are setting shop on the same building dc comics and mgm paramount is.
>>155279149>What we need is just a whole new generation in.People keep saying this but I feel like with a generation of writers editors are just gonna just as bad if not worse than the old generation
>>155279671The war has been treated as a weightless joke with quips over the radio, might as well go for a doctors visit and throw some spaghetti.>>155279828I hope DC is insufferable as a neighbour. Like plastering the anniversary of the Superman marriage covers on the door and showing off Absolute sales.
>>155279854It won't be perfect because there is no such thing as a perfect editorial team. However if you have no changeover then the problems and weak-points of an editorial regime become long-standing cancers.The current regime is at least two decades old, their bugbears are drawing blood. At least a new generation would bring in different and refreshing kinds of bugbear to be mad at.Essentially those raised well after Gwen had died. The generation that grew up with the marriage has been shut out from the levers of power.
>>155279857Bryce dallas howard is going to mock marvel at every turn.
>>155280011Not running at that football Lucy.Not while Lowe, Brevoort and the Shogun are in that office.
>>155277888Why does Dylan have to take his shirt off but MJ doesn't?
>>155279012They could be, but the Venom symbiote will be "I'm going back to my true love Eddie since I now understand what he was going through when I though he abandoned me for that slut offspring of mine Carnage instead of intentional NTR."
>>155277885stop trying to spin Peter into this shit, it's pathetic.
>>155279857Having Witchfire and Prime together too.
>>155281123I need a ongoing series with them so bad. Reading them was a reminder that comic books can be fun and engrossing.Also pairing Prime with a magic user is genius, if he is ever acting out again Witchfire can just give him time out time as a toad.
>>155280506It's a test to find out if Paul is still alive.
>>155280480the shogun is leaving soon.Speaking of which, has anyone bothered to storytime those new Mangaverse comics?
>>155281270Nope, people at this board would rather spam tadc or bait garbage.
>>155281270Shogun leaving.Brevoort likely leaving.Leaving just Lowe, White and the usual stable crew of BND flunkies plus Wacker to see them out.Light at the end of a shawshank tunnel. Next gen will have their new problems but god am I sick of this current ones.

>>155281368This is such a bland 1:25. >>155281381This on the other hand is awesome. I'm shocked they didn't try for a virgin variant ratio.
>>155281381Oddly good cover
does anyone have spoilers for the rest of the event?
>>155281229I don't want an ongoing because I don't want it to have to bend to serve continuity. Just give me a one step removed Elseworld where we can just have them be a couple and deal with things instead of the whole rest of DC butting in with its bullshit.
>>155281381This could have been kino if the design didn't suck complete ass.>>155277879>morphs into masculine VenomThe fact this keeps happening is insane. Fucking faggots who have no taste.
>>155283084Venom thinks of itself as a man because it usually bonds with men.
>>155283209Don't care. Also that's headcanon. It's a fucking alien that can asexually reproduce. I don't give a fuck. It's also a costume as in the entire concept/appeal is that it is a living costume. Giving it the ability to shape into whatever means that yes, in a horror movie/book could work. But overtime, when given enough appearances rules have to be established and it being overpowered means the heroes are dumb for not treating it like a threat and it is dumb for not doing more to win more consistently. Making it weaker and limited means it has at least some rules that can make it more interesting.
What are they doing with MJ after this event? They are teasing her and Peter again but we all know how that never ends well with this editorial.
>>155280011What's this from?
>>155283084Should've been Carol (because they're into that)>>155283304She has a new mini with her in LA coming out>>155283315Today's Cap issue
>>155283339Where does it say she is in LA
>>155283244I don't disagree, but Venom hasn't been written like that in a very long time.
>>155283304Take your meds.
>>155283798????
>>155283304Slott got mad at me last month when I asked him who at Marvel was blocking them being married again. He's adamant Marvel won't let them be married. He did NOT hint at that they cant be together though.
>>155284256Well you don't need to ask him that. It's the EiC and the corporate people above him who sign off on decisions whenever a major change happens to a character.
>>155283776Don't care.>>155284256That shit doesn't matter. All of them are colluding. Look at their prior statements and who is defending who and that will give you your answer. If I could speak to Slott, I would directly ask him why he is so retarded that he basically gave up that info that implicated himself and the editors when he said Spencer was meddled with. That is concrete fact that Marvel messed with that story and won't own up to it. They concocted that shit heap of an ending. So him unknowingly ratting himself and Marvel out is retarded from a PR perspective. It is blantant evidence of their corporate interest in maintaining a hold on fags who only buy for the sake of buying, rather than any sort of quality to the book. I would also just reiterate how he wrote rape into a kid's book and I would call him a fag.Yeah I might get cut off or he might rage but Idgaf.
>>155284459>That is concrete fact that Marvel messed with that story and won't own up to it.That was never a secret. Gage is listed as a writer on the credits page. Cebulski confirmed at a con that they had to rewrite the ending.
>>155280506Because Shotas are cute and Mary Whore is used goods
>>155280506Following in his father's footsteps
>>155284519Yeah, it isn't really like comics have a strict kayfabe like rule against talking about what happens internally.Knowing those interactions is helpful for understanding the context around the stories and how they are developed because no story in those spaces are going to be 100% purely internally justified narratives.
