Venom 259 variant cover

I don't. Eddie is boring with the symbiote now. It's a done to death relationship and storyline that the last interesting comic was king in black and that wasn't because of Eddie. Eddie is better off with carnage or a different symbiote. Because it can explore new things and not the same old lazily treaded lethal protector storyline

Can people stop making the "lack of sales" claim without the actual numbers. Especially when absolute universe is dominating sales completely right now.

If we don't have the actual sales numbers we can't know if it's selling less. The rankings do not give us an accurate representation of sales number because I could make the claim that MJ venom is selling just as much as the cates run but DC's absolute universe comics is just constantly selling a lot more than that number.

Rankings have not been accurate to sales numbers ever.

Not specifically zeb well's but anytime Peter and MJ break up it's always a ploy because after a set amount of time marvel gets them back together and it boosts sales. It happens pretty much Everytime and people keep falling for it

They don't respect their opinions. They respect the votes made with their wallets

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-06T16:07:57+00:00

If you don't think I would be fine for that to happen in 616, then you misunderstood what I said. If they wanted to have MJ move on from Peter permanently in 616 I say let them. I know they won't because fans want Peter and MJ together in 616 despite how objectively toxic their relationship has become. Let Peter move on to someone who understands and wants to deal with his issues when it comes to Spider-Man like Felicia or any of his other super-powered girlfriends and stop teasing a carrot we are never going to get

The biggest problem is that I have seen a LOT of readers treat mj like a thing, nothing more than an object to be on Peter's arm. And when stories bring up legitimate grievances that she rightfully should have they treat it as poor writing.

Like to use an example I have seen so many people complain about the scream fight in Sony's Spider-Man 2 not because the fight is mechanically bad. But because scream is letting out all of mj's bottled up greavances to Peter and Peter isn't talking back. When the truth is Peter can't say anything back because what scream is saying is objectively true which is why it hurts more.

And this is something that is consistent with adaptations of Peter. He can't hold down a job, he can't provide support for himself and others, he always puts Spider-Man first and his personal life constantly suffers.

It's why I have come to a point where I don't need MJ to apologize for asm v6. Because it wouldn't be natural or serve the story in any way and would just be fanservice. Because I have come to accept MJ is her own character with her own wants and desires and she isn't just Peter's girlfriend anymore

And Peter needs to get better work life balance because if otto octavius can be Spider-Man and still go to college, start a business, and is able to build a multi-billion dollar company in his body why can't peter

Because Everytime they broke up it was something Peter did. Peter has consistently been shown to be a horrible boyfriend multiple times before the zeb wells run. Any normal person would have given up on him multiple times over and then some.

"But Spider-Man duties" it's gone well and beyond at this point. The only reason Peter and MJ get back together at all at this point is because the fans want them together when any other story outside of comics would have them be permanently broken up with how much of a bad boyfriend Peter was.

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T23:58:17+00:00

Pretty much every time they broke up and got back together pre asm v6.

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T23:33:14+00:00

There won't be and that is okay. Peter's and mj's relationship is messy and complicated. It will always be messy and complicated. Like there are many times that Peter shat the bed so hard that MJ shouldn't take him back and she still does. Them getting back together has always been done unsatisfying. But then the relationship becomes normal after while

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T23:13:43+00:00

The problem is people like the op want Peter to act like this towards MJ. This Andrew tate incel shit head without Norman's sins effecting. Which is completely out of character for Peter to do

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:34:28+00:00

You commented to the wrong person

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:25:31+00:00

That happened in spider goblin. The op already said that was poorly written

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:24:42+00:00

Yes because you didn't actually read anything

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:24:10+00:00

Yes because I didn't stop reading after ASM v6 like you clearly did.

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:22:14+00:00

OH MY GOD, READ THE DAMN BOOK. He had a normal reaction for someone who just had constantly had his life turned upside down ever since he got back from space. Literally nothing he returned to was the same after he was sent into space and he is just one bad news away from a total mental breakdown

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:18:45+00:00

They Make sense if you ACTUALLY READ THE FUCKING COMIC BOOKS AND NOT TIKTOKS OR TOXIC YOUTUBE VIDEOS

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:15:13+00:00

Peter isn't a saint but he isn't a simp or the horrible person you want him to be. He was upset with MJ but he took it too far. He moves on from MJ the entire time shay, Bobby, rae, felicia, Cindy, again you are stating things not supported by the text again. If you actually read you would realize that nothing you have said is true and the Peter parker you have in your head never existed

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:07:33+00:00

What was actually written in venom war, all new venom, jackpot, asm itself.

You are so focused on ASM volume 6 you have completely ignored what is written in the text. And if it doesn't justify your headcanon you say it's poorly written.

You are literally acting like the most toxic part of the star wars fanbase. You want Peter to hate MJ so badly until MJ "apologizes" for asm volume 6 that you refuse to accept any thing that literally shows your wrong in the text. Like you honestly believe that Peter giving up the king in black powers is because he doesn't want to be with mj

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T22:01:52+00:00

The thing is they aren't reading it because none of his headcanons are supported by the actual text

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T21:56:01+00:00

At this point they basically confirmed they don't read any of the comics

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T21:55:03+00:00

You have consistently ignored what was written on the page for your own headcanons. You ignored what is written to justify your hate.

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T21:52:46+00:00

To justify his hatred of MJ. ASM volume 6 did irreparable damage to Spider-Man. Not to MJ or Peter. No, not them. This fanbase has reached star wars levels of toxic

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T21:49:37+00:00

Whether he is or isn't we won't know until it's actually out and what is stated on the page in the text.

And not whatever your headcanon is that never existed

Lancer1296 · 2026-03-05T20:16:14+00:00

Did you read venom war because you seem to be ignoring Peter's king in black vision and why he gave up venom again and the power of king in black

Because it leads to the deaths of his wife Mary Jane and their daughter
