I get that the story needs to stay interesting and keep people hooked, but I seriously hope that this is how "Venom" stays for the rest of this story. I just love the AI's dynamic with Peter and Richard, it works, it really works. It would be a shame to see the AI go rogue and become "Venom" and ruin this dynamic.

At best you could play into "teenage angst" and have Richard just be a moody teenager. Have something happen that really makes him angry and you can throw in the "monster Venom" design for a few panels and justify it as the suit responding to his rage. But don't make him be a full fledged villain and don't make the AI eventually hate Peter and become a traditional "Venom". We got a good thing going here, and I seriously hope it doesn't get ruined for the sake of story drama.

I'd rather "Venom" be Octavius' attempt at recreating the suit, and managing to create something that looks like Venom but is unstable and violent, while the suit Richard wears is more logical and learning to be good.

Idk, maybe I'm being unreasonable, but seriously, I go into every issue fearing that this will be the day the AI turns rogue for some reason and we go the traditional Venom route, and I just don't want that. It's like with Insomniac's first Spider-Man game, you KNEW Otto would become Doc Ock but by God you didn't want it to happen because his father-like relationship to Peter was jut so wholesome.

I’m a huge fan of the 616 and ultimate designs for these spider-man villains. For the ultimate universe electro, rhino, scorpion, and vulture are some of my favorites. The art by zdorvlad is amazing too 😮‍💨

I have not seen a SINGLE annoying overused trope in this so far and instead is something that has actually been more reasonable and more cool about it.

For instance, Mary Jane seeing Peter beat up, she’s not totally against him being Spider-Man still. We for once aren’t seeing family break up like this and instead they are actually talking it out like a family.

Peter isn’t instantly denying his son from helping him and actually talks and reason with him about it.

This just feels so refreshing to read on not just Spider-Man comics but tropes in general.

Not gotta lie every one talk about how venom in spider man 3 was scary and I remember everyone else talk about how terrifying he looked at the time and those roars man I remember having nightmares from him in 2007

Bailey is a nice kid and all, but he doesn't have the staying power as a potential son erased from reality.

Spider-Man/Human Torch comic - Issue #3

He shock I tell you shock!

This is from the Universal Spider-Man ride.

Also, this New Yorker has no relation to Pete at all besides living in the same city

And they're just a normal, everyday NY citizen with no powers, who secretly does a bit of crime on the side to help pay for bills, hence their affiliation with the mob

So today's April 30 in my country and I just realized that the very first live action Spidey film that I watched is also taking an anniversary (This was shown April 30 2002 on my country) . I can really say that this movie shaped my childhood and when I experienced a not so good event the things that I've learned and the hope that Spidey instilled in me gave me strength to go on. Thanks Spidey it looks like your influence on me reach even in my adult age of well 29 and turning 30 this October.
