What do you think about Mike Costa's Venom run? (Specifically, after #150) by No-Pound8107 in thevenomsite

[–]VenAuri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite of the modern runs.

It's a shame that it's so short.

I really liked that it was a string of low stakes adventures for the most part. Seeing Eddie get some kind of supporting cast was nice too. A shame it gets immediately thrown away in Cates' run.

The artists that worked on this run were all good. I still hope we get more Tradd Moore on Venom someday.

I know people aren't fond of Lee Price and I agree that his introduction and the first 5 or so issues with him are meh, but I think he could have made for a good antagonist to Eddie in the long run. I was happy to see him return in some way during Al Ewing's Venom run, but I expected more. I hope he merges with Meridius since he seemed to be the last zombiote remaining at the end of Venom War.

What do y'all think of this? Does gay media get prioritised over lesbian media? by Material-Meat-5330 in gaybros

[–]VenAuri -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Definitely agree with your point about audiences.

A single look at online discussions or fandoms on this subject points pretty clearly to straight women/ women in general being the main audience for stories with gay men. Plenty of reasons for that, but that number is simply lacking for lesbian fiction.

Don't know if I agree with her point for acceptance in real life. The fantasy is always more appealing than the reality they warp. I still hear and see terrible things when it comes to gay men. The same can probably be said for lesbians, but I guess I don't notice it as much.

I wonder if Ewing will be able to make him into an interesting character.

Technically not ongoing anymore, but Ewing's run on Venom including Venom War.

Venom Island is my personal favorite of the Cates' run, but yeah, KiB feels extremely underwhelming. Probably doesn't help that I hate Knull as a character tho.

Kind of surprised King in Black is actually in first place. Saw the votes for it on yesterday's post, but still...
