So judging by the cinematic Zero Hour, apparently Rein/Brig/Echo and of course Genji and Mercy already "met" before joining Winston in Paris, or was it complete coincidence ? How did it go ?

Well my working theory was that Rein, Brig, Echo, and Genji were already moving to converge on Gibraltar, since presumably that’s where Winston’s Recall was coming from. 

Mercy is a bit more complicated because we know Baptiste called her to warn her that Talon would probably be targeting her, but we don’t know if she would go rushing back to the arms of recalled Overwatch–after all, she has the voiceline on Gibraltar of “Overwatch was shut down for a reason, maybe it’s best it stay that way.” So if Mercy was also heading to Gibraltar from where she was doing relief work in the middle east, it might not necessarily be to join Overwatch, but to compile information on Talon with Winston and make sure other former Overwath members are safe. But we do know she rushes off to wherever there’s trouble, so if she heard Null Sector was attacking innocent civilians in Paris, she’d come swooping in to the rescue. And I do think she would still value her former teammates (She was definitely still close with Genji, as hinted at with their letter-writing) and she would want to help and protect them if they were also protecting the civilians of Paris, as well.

 I wouldn’t say it was a ‘coincidence’ so much as “There is a huge robot invasion and everyone’s stepping up to fight because that’s what heroes do.”

Alright time for some honesty thats going to make my follower count go down but I don't care. Hate me. But a post I read made me realize I need to bring this up.

I complain a lot about Donny Cates and his comics because its the best way to reach agreements on here. This whole run is concidered terrible so I'm going to be honest. I don't say the things I like about the comics because I'm afraid of conflict over it. However, I've already been questioned once for this and I will be questioned again so its time to come clean and be hated. I buy the comics. Which apparently is a sin in this fandom and I will only ever be judged for it.

Know why I do it? Because there are elements I like along with the elements I hate. And I just need to get that off my chest because I don't want to feel bad for it. I get enraged easily and will go off on rants, but I'm also pleased easily. So its time for me to list a few things not all that I actually like about these comics and I will be fine when my follower count drops. (Also a Silver Surfer note)

Dylan and Normies dynamic is really fun and I love them. Sleepers added protective behavior of Dylan just makes it all the better because imagine him trying his best to babysit Dylan and Normie and it all goes to shit two seconds later. I love it.

Grendel dragon. MMMMMMMM. I love this dragon and he's beautiful and also part of Beowolf I just love him.

Darkness. I don't know how to explain this other than a couple dsrk twists are enjoyable. Sure he added too many but still I would love it if it was just one or two twists. Like if it was only the cancer involving Venom trying to keep Eddie... Thats a dark bump in the road J can get behind.

And to Ryan Stegman... ART IS A YEEEEEES

Just Dylan in general I mean hes my son and he's great.

Them covers are sometimes great. Though the varients are what I live for.

Follower count: 359

Waiting for that to drop.

The only way I will accept Spiderman coming into Venom 2

Babysitter Peter Parker gets asked to babysit for Eddie and is handed black goo slime child, Sleeper. (Venom can already tell something is different about Peter, so they decide Peter is Good Choice.)

Baby Sleeper climbs on ceiling? No problem for Peter, sticky feet, Parker!

Baby trying to slip out window? Not so fast with web slinging teen boy!!

Baby won’t stop crying?? GREAT, neither will Peter!!

Contest to see if Sleeper or Peter’s webs can stretch further. 

Eddie comes home to find Peter on the ceiling with Sleeper, does not react. Peter freaks out and tries to explain that he’s actually not weird or crazy and Eddie, completely blank faced, just goes, “Kid, I have an alien living inside my body 24/7. You being a superhero or supervillain is only like the sixth most shocking thing to ever happen to me.” And he gives Peter a 100 dollar tip and wishes him a good night.

Keep Dylan Brock away from Miles

I don’t hate Dylan Brock. I think the idea of a kid who hates Spider-Man but loves Venom to be fun. I like how he is and honestly, I have nothing against him except how he was born but again, that is not on his character.

Just keep him away from Miles.

Now the Spidey-Office(which Venom is apart of. don’t get it twisted) has been pushing legacies of everything Spider-Man. Of course there is Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen. Those are the obvious ones. Then you have Starling.

Tiana Toomes. Granddaughter of Adrian Toomes and arch enemy of Tombstone. She has been sort of Miles’ Black Cat except she is just a more ruthless anti-hero than she is just bad.

Spider-Zero who is essentially Madame Web.

Her job is to watch over the Web of Life. She goes as far to say that after the first one was destroyed, the new one needs to be taken care of by the new Spider-people i.e. not Peter Parker Spider-people.

Kraven’s son or clone of Kraven.

Who looks exactly like Kraven but without the suicidal tendencies. Kraven killed himself again after yet another Hunt, but this time he had the decency to pass on his legacy to his son.

Ana Kravinoff, Kraven’s Inhuman and self-renounced daughter.

Billy Connors or Billy Connors’ clone since the Lizard ate his son and had to clone him because Slott said whoops.

And Normie Osborn who was already taken over by the Carnage Symbiote. And he is the grandson of Norman Osborn, son of Harry and Liz Allen. He is the heir to Alchemax. And he is essentially Norman Osborn Jr.

And mark my words. There probably will be some girl or boy or someone coming out of that Black Cat book who Felicia is going to mentor or some shit. Superior Spider-Man appears to be ending soon and that conclusion seems to be that classic Otto is back.

Now you may think I am tripping but this has been accross 4 different books in under a year. And within that year, Dylan was created. And then all of the sudden Sleeper shows up. And both Dylan and Miles get roped in Absolute Carnage together. In fact, Miles was literally only solo other character outside of Eddie’s Venom that has been involved with Absolute Carnage for three issues. Everyone else has given the issue only 1 even fucking Amazing Spider-Man.

And I will be real with Venom fans. I don’t think it’s any coincidence that, in a period where there is no way Anne and Eddie could have had sex, Dylan was conceived through dubious means such as giving birth via Symbiote bonding. Cates created Dylan for a reason. Cates was the only writer who featured Miles Morales after Bendis left Marvel and his last issue with the character ended until Miles own book came about. That Dylan is around the age of Miles just like Normie just like Billie and just like Tiana. Mayday or Annie May ain’t even the twinkle in Peter’s eye yet in Marvel 616 yet. Miles getting transported to 616 in a rather crude way. And suddenly the majority of Spider-Man’s rogues start having kids around his age and shit or their kids have powers or are in positions to have powers?

Billy has been in Spider-Man for as long as his father and now he gets his father’s Lizard powers? Normie was created over 30 years ago and now he suddenly starts being crucial to the storyline? Kraven has always been...fruitful but now he suddenly has two heirs to his name that would look at Miles and say it’s destiny or some shit. Dylan’s hamfisted origin turns to a writer just quickly and hastily trying to create an foil to Miles with a ‘here, Eddie for no logical reason has a kid too.’ Then you suddenly bring in the other symbiote child of Venom and Eddie that isn’t evil? Vulture now has a granddaughter and as soon as the Web of Life is destroyed, there is a new one with a new watcher? Naw. Spidey-office, this is not a coincidence. It is purposeful.

HH Theory: Angel and Valentino

So, those who’ve seen the prequel comic on the Hazbin Hotel website know that Angel was/is working for a powerful Pimp named Valentino

ad Valentino, as you can see from above, is an @$$hole.

Now, I know the #1 theory we have regarding him is “maybe Angel’s at the hotel looking for a way out of Val’s clutches,” BUT….then the next day, the pilot came out…and in the opening, we see THIS:

Viv, is VERY CLEVER in her story plot-hook delivery. She DELIBERATELY included this after releasing those first seven prequel pages knowing the fans would NOTICE and put 2 and 2 together that Angel IS still working for Val, and that Val’s just as much of a controlling, dominating abusive boss as presented in the only two pages of him we’ve seen so far…and not ONLY has it got us hooked on how that can effect Angel’s character development, but also, let’s keep in mind ONE OTHER DETAIL OR TWO:

Valentino does NOT like it when Angel is outside the Pron studio. As far as he’s concerned, Angel’s a PORN ACTOR….HIS porn actor, and NOTHING MORE, probably to keep him from getting hurt and “damaging the goods” so to speak. However, we DOn”T KNOW is Valentino knows that Angel’s at the hotel…AND we all KNOW that Angel’s little turf battle with Cherri and Pentious was broadcast ALL OVER HELL

Sooooo….

-What deal did Angel make to get out of the studio? Or did he make a deal at all?

-How will Valentino react to Angel’s “turf war” shenanigans and Angel being at the hotel?

-How will Valentino’s involvement in Angel’s life while at the hotel effect Angel’s story arc?

SO MANY QUESTIONS!! O3O

Alastor x Charlie HC?

Alastor x Charlie Headcanon~

• Alastor and Charlie, apart from the first moments of tension, they immediately got along. Both are really fun and energetic, they don’t hold back in front of a challenge and both are natural leader.

•It started when a group of vandals and Protestants started to create chaos in front of the Hotel. Charlie came out to confront each other peacefully. One of these poor fools threw at her something, wetting/dirtying  her clothes and hair. Alastor suddenly appeared behind Charlie.

• “Sweetheart, you should go get yourself something comfortable. I can think of our… mannerless guests.” “But…” “Sweetheart, you may go.” “Just…don’t hurt them too much!”

•Did those guys dare try to erase Charlie’s smile? Those fools are dead. But not immediately, not in front the Hotel under the gaze of Charlie. He didn’t want to disappoint the young princess. 

•But Charlie’s attitude has caught his attention. Those rude had attacked her and she didn’t want to kill them? Well, that’s interesting!

•Alastor appreciates Charlie’s kind heart. He likes her to be so positive and convinced of her goals. This does not mean that he will become “good”. He will probably still laugh at the misfortunes of others, but he will try not to do it openly in front of Charlie.

•Charlie believes that Alastor can be a good person. Perhaps. Really deep inside.

•They can spend hours talking about music. Both are musical talents and appreciate each other’s knowledge.

•Theatrical af. If you think that News 666 was a performance, you didn’t have Alastor as a set designer, choreographer, musician. Combine the enthusiasm of Charlie. Now that is a performance worthy of the Princess of Hell and the Radio Demon!

•Musical duets. ALWAYS. AT EVERY OCCASION. EVERY HOURS. They make Husk want to jump off a bridge.

you DO realize that Charlie is dating,Vaggy right? i'm am not saying that it's is wrong you ship alastor and charlie, i'm just saying that WHY do you ship them?😐

OH BOY I AM SO GLAD YOU ASKED

This is probably gonna be a long post so strap in

what brushes did you use for the baby twinyards

for those drawings i used SAI, here are the brush settings, the line art was done with my ink pen, and the spots on aaron were done with idgaf (it’s a pencil) while most of the coloring was done with the first brush except for the eyes which i did with the bottom left fill pen.

remember these, kids? they used to be so popular on deviantART way back in like 2008 and i remember i used to be so pumped about doing one, though i never really did. so, last night i even had a dream about doing one of these, so i put together some scenarios and here we are, haha! feel free to reblog or save the template for yourself if it catches your fancy! 

please tag your finished meme as  harteus meme so that i and others can find your artwork easily and collected. <3

I know Ashe is the spotlight but can we just take a moment to appreciate just how tender these two are to each other? Echo looks so innocent and McCree is so obviously soft towards her, it adds a whole new level to McCree’s smooth nature in-game. People tend to think of McCree as a talkative but somewhat rough man, and then you see him treating her (an AI and a Robot and an Objective at the same time) almost as a princess because she is so delicate in nature, like an actual person. It warms my heart. Also Echo calling him “Cowboy”, and McCree calling her “Partner”… my heart just melted a bit. 

Watching the Blizzcon short and…

I’m fairly sure McCree tipped Ashe to the train? He does say she could “never resist a good tip”. Also Bob ripped McCree’s arm off, and Echo (floaty AI lady) has apparently been out of the loop for sufficiently long enough that she doesn’t know who Winston is or how McCree lost his arm. Intriguing.

Also, Echo this year as a hero seems damn near guaranteed, so there’s that.

can i get some fluffy echo x max

“What’s the point of all this?” Echo pulled a tie from the drawer and looked it over, tilting her head, “The pattern is nice, but I don’t really see the point of putting it on myself.”

“Well, tragically, ma colombe, not all of us look as good naked as you,” said Maximilien, leaning on the wall and watching as she rifled through his closet. There was a manic methodicalness about it, almost like she was looking for something, but wasn’t sure what she was looking for. 

“You keep saying ‘naked,’” Echo said with a chuckle, “How can something not even meant to have clothes be naked? Is a supercollider naked? Is the space station naked?”

“Well I don’t see anything wrong with appreciating a good suit,” said Max, folding his arms.

“It doesn’t interfere with your heat venting?” Echo tilted her head.

“The only omnics that should worry about heat-venting are…” Max glanced off, “…Labor units.”

“It’s all the same frame, isn’t it?”

“I’m not—” Max caught himself, “I’m a businessman.”

“A business-omnic,” Echo said brightly. He loved and hated the way she said ‘omnic.’ It was so matter of fact and natural to her when for the rest of the world the word had been a boot on the side of his head, pinning him to the ground. 

Echo stepped up to him and fiddled with his collar, flipping it up. He wondered if she knew that bothered him or if she was just being curious like with everything else. Probably the former.

“It is the same frame,” Max admitted, not meeting her eyes, “You take away the suits, the ties, the cufflinks, the shoes… there’s very little that stands between me and a ditch-digger.”

“Hm,” Echo unbuttoned the top button of his collar and loosened his tie.

“Forward,” said Max, putting his hands on his hips as she kept unbuttoning.

“You’ve been around humans too long,” said Echo, smirking, “Just bear with me.”

She parted his shirt, baring the metal of his chassis, and turned him around to face the mirror in his closet. “What do you see?”

“…basic Omnic frame,” said Max, dropping one hand from his hip with indifference, “One of millions.” 

“No, it’s your frame,” said Echo, putting her hand on his shoulder, “How many ditch-diggers would build a casino when it’s not even legal for Omnics to gamble?”

“…This ditch-digger,” said Max, looking at his own reflection.

“On the right track,” said Echo, smiling.

“Well if you get to undress me, perhaps you’ll permit–” Maximilien pulled his tie off.

“What?” said Echo

Max looped the tie over Echo’s head, re-fastening the knot around her neck. They both looked back at the mirror. Echo glanced down at the tie around her neck and then back at Max, arching an eyebrow. “See?” said Max, “It is a good look.”

Echo snickered and elbowed him.

Just what is Echo, Why Does McCree Have Her Chip, and how long has she been deactivated?

Okay, so from what I can gather from the short, the whole heist was set up by McCree with the intent of getting Echo back. As indicated by his “You never could resist a good tip” line and the fact that he was willing to let Deadlock have literally everything else on the train so long as he just got Echo’s crate. He knew Deadlock had the firepower to stop the train. So they blow up the train and expose the crate and he, in true McCree fashion, has to hope he can improvise his way out of a situation with the bounty he needs where he’s very notably outnumbered.

Now I’ve heard it suggested that Echo has been deactivated so long that she was in Overwatch before Winston joined, as indicated by her “Monkey?” line. But when McCree corrects himself, saying “Scientist! Whatever!” it’s clearly a nod back to the “Recall” short of Winston’s self-affirming quote of “I’m not a monkey, I’m a scientist!” So personally I feel like that exchange isn’t establishing that Echo is completely out of the loop so much as Echo being close enough with Winston to affirm his abilities as a scientist and defend him when others seem to underestimate him.

Basically my working theory is that Echo was decommissioned and deactivated when the Petras Act was enacted—she is not an omnium-produced omnic, but rather an artificial intelligence likely developed in hopes of bridging the gaps between humans and Omnics during Overwatch’s golden days and the bumpy years following the Omnic crisis. Not being an omnic and rather, being technically a piece of Overwatch equipment, Echo didn’t have the same established ‘personhood’ as Omnics and hence Echo was deactivated and placed in the custody of the US government–likely because she was created here in America, but it could also be because the US government threw a hissy fit in the post-Petras Act negotiations and insisted on keeping her in custody. 

Now, as far as McCree’s possession of Echo’s activation chip goes, there are two options–Either McCree took the chip with him when he sensed the inevitable Overwatch/Blackwatch power struggle, or, he stole the chip from UN/US custody after the Petras act was enacted. I feel like the former is easier to pull off, but the latter is not out of the question when it comes to McCree’s resourcefulness.

This is all speculation so take this with a grain of salt.

I need More Echomax hcs in my life now help.

I just wanted you to know I’m evilly swirling my sauvignon blanc in its glass right now and snickering at this newly constructed corner of rarepair hell. Ask and ye shall receive, my friend.

>When Echo was captured by Talon, Maximilien was the first person to insist they treat her civilly and like a lady. He also told the other Talon goons that he would help make her more compliant with his ‘irresistable charms.’ This ended up with him Plasma-blasted in a crater on the opposite side of Echo’s cell. He fell in love instantly.

>Max gets bristly every time Echo brings up McCree. 

Maximilien: Now, ma colombe, you know I wouldn’t use the term ‘meatsack barbarian’ lightly—

Echo: Are you… jealous?

Maximilien: WHAT!? Of all the ridiculous— Jealous?! Me?! Of a Sonora-sandblasted vagrant?!

Echo: *smirks* You’re jealous.

Maximilien: *muttering* My chem-receptors indicate he smells like feet and old bacon and is not worthy of your attentions.

>I’ve mentioned before that a lot of omnics get these modifications to their chassis that allow them to receive a pleasure response from physical touch in certain spots–this is usually to accommodate organic partners who are more dependent on physical touch for intimacy, but these omnics go on to be able to still be stimulated by other omnic partners. Maximilien has these modifications, Echo’s own sensory intake is… a bit more unique. She tends to just remotely correlate her pleasure response to Max’s when they’re being cozy and cuddly together. They’re considered very touchy for an inorganic couple. 

>Since Echo’s face is mostly a hologram projection, Max’s hand phases right through it when he touches it, so it looks kind of weird to other people but Max and Echo consider it very soft and intimate when half of Max’s hand is just… phased through Echo’s face.

>Max was very into the sleek and modern and minimalist look but after he got together with Echo it’s like, “No I’ve always liked having fresh-cut flowers around my office, what are you talking about?”

They are sisters now change my mind

(Bonus: im still not over them)

Echo, Maximilien, Zenyatta, and Bob go on a double date. Bob and Max just brag about Zen and Echo to any and everyone that is within earshot. Zen and Echo just can't believe that is how they see them.

Echo: This is my date, Max.

Zenyatta: *gasp* Echo, while I greatly believe in extending olive branches, I must ask if you are aware he is allied with Talon?

Bob: *taps Zen’s shoulder*

Zen: *looks over*

Bob: *signing* I’m still with Deadlock.

Zen: Well–yes, but Talon and Deadlock are very different–

Bob: *signing* We burned down the clubhouse of a rival motorcycle gang last week.

Zen: I–Really?

Bob: *shrug and nod*

Echo: *looping her arm around Maximilien’s* He promised me he won’t try anything. Won’t you, Max?

Maximilien: I assure you I will be on my best behavior–I’m not working, after all. Let us agree to make this experience… neutral ground, shall we say?

Zenyatta: Hmmmm

Maximilien: I can’t tell you how long I’ve been stuck surrounded by organics. We should take time for ourselves. Plot against the sweaty meatsacks…

Echo: *elbows him*

Maximilien: Kidding, ma colombe, I’m kidding.

Zenyatta: Admittedly the company of the other Omnics on the watchpoint can be…

Echo: Like babysitting?

Zenyatta: I admire their eagerness to grow and learn, but perhaps time among synthetic peers is due.

I’d say Zen is the gushier one than Bob, honestly. Bob deeply admires Zen but is also a bit more shy and reserved and doesn’t want to embarrass him. Bob is really excited to find out that Echo also knows ASL (You pick up all kinds of stuff from satellites, it turns out).

captain america but what’s going on

Steve entered the room, it was neatly decorated, red velvet was streamed amongst the walls—the tables had wine glasses lined up around said tables, and a vase filled with flowers, Steve smiled a little.

Besides the decorations—people were crowded, chatting up a storm, Steve scanned the room to find Peggy, amongst the sea of people—he couldn’t find her.

A pang of disappointment washed over the blonde. He sighed both a mixture of frustration and disappointment.

His eyes laid on a brunette, at the corner of the room, he stood out from most. (partly because there was no one there—plus no one was sitting at that table.) Steve walked over to the male, to get a closer look.

The guy was around his age, a mop of brown hair partly obscured his vision, he had to keep brushing his bangs out of the way—which Steve found…cute. Heat rushed to Steve’s face immediately, he hoped the stranger didn’t see. After a few minutes of just standing there, the blonde finally moved over to the person in question.

He noticed the brunette was fiddling with something on his wrist…some sort of gadget, was he also a hero? Steve quickly pushed the thought out of his head.

The blonde cleared his throat to get the others attention.

The young man perked his head up in response.

“Care to dance?” Steve asked, with his hand outstretched.

The man smiled.

“I’d be charmed.”

The young man stood up and took Steve’s hand.

Steve led the other to the dance floor.

“I assume you’re Steve Rogers?” The stranger asked.

“I am.” Steve replied—a hint of shock in his voice.

The brunette chuckled,

“It’s kind of obvious, blonde hair, blue eyes—it’s not that hard to tell.”

The other wrapped his arms around Steve’s neck.

“I’m Peter Parker, by the way.” The man introduced.

Steve wrapped his arms around the other’s waist, slowly dancing to the song that was playing.

Everything happened in a quick succession, Peter’s lips connected with his own, it was short but sweet, Steve closed his eyes—and if the blonde had to admit, the brunette was a pretty good kisser, unlike himself.

The shorter man broke the kiss.

“See you around, Captain.” Peter whispered.

He felt Peter’s hands slip away from his neck, the warmth he felt disappeared—only then it was just a lingering feeling.

When Steve opened his eyes,

Peter was gone.

The words Peter had whispered echoed in his head

‘See you around, Captain.’

everybody’s scared so dance in the dark

d-dance in the dark

Boston Post, Massachusetts, April 28, 1895

Spider Noir got me fuuucked up.

Peter Benjamin Parker is living during the Great Depression, everyone is poor, people are starving, murders are running rampant. This is his life. He isn’t even 21 yet. Just a kid getting ready to head off to college, 17, maybe 18 years old. Then his Uncle is murdered, eaten alive by a cannibal Vulture, and Peter is the one who finds the corpse. He starts getting angry, gets a mentor who he thinks is helping him try to fight against the corruption in the city only to be betrayed. His Uncle dead, his mentor dead, he turns his powers against Osborne who is running this corruption. When Aunt May is almost murdered by the same thing that killed his Uncle, he fires a gun, killing at 18. And instead of being thankful, Aunt May berates him telling him “I dont want to live in a world where we kill each other like animals.” He defeats Goblin, but faces a new enemy. He gets beaten down, almost killed, and his only friend and ex-girlfriend of his mentor is attacked and permanently scarred because of him. One of his friends is lobotomized by doc ock. When Noir dies it is painful with his lifeforce drained, he was trying to save everyone. When Gwen goes to tell Aunt May, Aunt May slaps her, upset her Peter was some kind of vigilante monster.

Peter Benjamin Parker saw so much trauma, so much evil. He saw his family killed, his friends attacked and murdered, all before he was even old enough to head to college. He killed a man before he was even able to go to college. Peter tries so hard to do what’s right, he is a good man and that’s why he was cursed by the Spider Goddess. And now, even after he passed, even after he tried to help, his one true family member he had left disowned him in his death. Even in death Peter cannot find peace. Fucking, this is why Noir broods.

Inktober starts tomorrow and i’m starting to get a little nervous.

but here is the prompt list i made in all it’s variations of tone, if anyone wants to use it feel free! @ me if you do so’s i can see it ^__^

A friend asked me how I draw feet/shoes so I made this quick thing for them on how I breakdown feet when drawing. Thought it might be useful to someone else.

...So Cates, I have questions?

I am waiting until the event is finished to do a super post on Donny Cates Absolute Garbage. Until then, Cates continues to show that he cannot form sequence of events and just throws scenes in for no reason.

In AC #2 and MM: AC #1, we were left with Miles becoming a symbiote host. Cates doesn’t use his pieces well because for one Eddie and Mac were safely away from the Carnage horde at the end of both issues. As soon as this issue picks up, Miles transformation is complete and he is suddenly attacking Eddie and the Carnage Cult is surrounding both again.

This sounds like a nitpick but as I pointed out in that there is a right way to chart action scenes in comics and I refuse to lay the blame at Stegman because he is simply providing the art to Cates’ script. Also it continues to be a problem in the book and it involves a major scene.

Why couldn’t Venom just do this earlier? Why bother with the several page melodrama of Eddie angering over letting Miles down when it was his fault that he got captured in the first place since you want to demand Scorpion to man up for no reason? Why is the Symbiote getting bold and basically putting himself in danger to just kill Osborn or is it Cletus...who the fuck knows anymore.

So Venom takes Carnage back to the warehouse and to safety to find this.

Now Spider-Man explains to Eddie that the Avengers know that he is helping which is okay. But I have questions because it obvious why a certain character is there. If Ben Grimm is there, why not bring in Reed Richards instead of Bruce Banner? Yes, Banner is a genius too but Mr. Fantastic has familiarity with symbiotes and alien biology. Banner’s field has to do with Nuclear Physics, Physics, and energy transference. This is just the writer assuming all geniuses are the same in order to display a pivotal scene that is complete macho bait.

Oh hey, remember when I mentioned Cates lack of sequence of events?

...How did Carnage find their hideout? How did Carnage sneak into the hideout and become a copy of Eddie and how did no one think to realize why there are two Eddies in the same building?

That is the sequence of events, fam. There are no missing pages. Carnage just finds Eddie and Peter(Eddie casually dropping Peter’s name and alias to a serial killer god wannabe) and there is no explanation at all as to how 2 geniuses and Eddie got caught so fucking off guard by something so simple to realize. It makes people look stupid.

And the edgy ass dialogue? “I am sex and violence?” Cringe as fuck(I am aware he is quoting a book but whatever).

I am not a Venom fan. I was roped in this shit show because it involved Miles and Andi. So dealing with Cates, who is being hailed for his ‘writing’, is like one massive disappointment after another.

The issue is that he is desperately trying to exonerate Eddie while making the Symbiote look evil. The Symbiote is bringing the worst of Eddie and it’s never Eddie’s fault ever. Like you see the scene where the Symbiote is trying to relieve Peter of the responsibility of bringing Symbiotes on Earth(a retcon that Cates made btw) only for Eddie to make the same mistake and manipulate Peter’s guilt for his sake. But does the writing ever call Eddie out? No.

The Symbiote is the wild one for wanting to kill Carnage while Eddie wants to protect his own kin as if those two ideas are at odds. All of the sudden, Eddie values human life because he has a kid now? And it’s not even human. Null/Carnage is literally killing swathes of people and taking over people’s bodies while infecting them with a codex. At this point, Null is a parasitic disease.

But Eddie doesn’t trust the Symbiote and feels like it’s trying to control him and manipulate his life so he just does stupid things due to this creator forced drama. And it is creator forced because it was Cates that made the relationship between the two abusive when there was no such tension earlier. You erased the one sole motivator of Eddie, his sister, and claimed that she never existed. You made it seem like it was the Symbiote that was giving Eddie cancer intentionally so Eddie would always need it. You made the Symbiote use Eddie’s DNA and rape and force impregnate his ex-wife because women in this series are only good when they are sex slaves to an alien cult, raped to have children of dubious consent, and just a lie of a manipulation. Honestly, Cates’ Venom run should be held in the same regard as One More Day and I say this as an avid Spider-Man fan.
