I agree ending the "Eddie King in Black" Saga is a lost opportunity. They built so much on the title, its power and the origin of symbionts etc... just to throw it all away, for now.

[@mitchthe3518]

It's not completely over, in Venom #18 (which has panels at 12:30) a future Eddie says to main Eddie he'll lose and regain power. I do still agree this story was kinda botched

[@Tetsujinhanmaa]

​@@mitchthe3518 I feel like that's more likely a backdoor Ewing wrote in, given that he probably knows how this industry goes, for future writers to have the option to write Eddie as KiB if they want to or not to if they so choose rather than any sort of promised/planned plot line. It's a smart move to make it feel less worthless when he eventually did loose it at the end of this series, and also its awfully generous to future writers

[@feelinghealing3890]

I swear we had more random tblurbs about other "king in [color]"s in random unrelated stories than actual scenes with him as the king in black.

[@darryljack6612]

They NEED to keep him a King In Black and keep Dylan as Venom, it sets up a perfect trio dynamic for him, Dylan, and Carnage. With Eddie being symbiote God, Dylan being symbiote Jesus, and Carnage being the symbiote devil.

that would make carnage the holy spirit not the devil... idk if that would be better or far far worse

Eddie as Carnage will definitely be interesting, especially if he manages to tame the symbiote's crazy violent nature. It'll be an interesting dynamic. I just hope, like you said, it doesn't devolve all character development Eddie had.

[@aydantesillo9520]

My only thing with that is, I don’t really want carnage turning good, I liked when they did it in the I think it was incursion event(correct me if I’m wrong) but preferably I want them to keep carnage evil. Not the biggest fan of the idea, but I’m willing to give it a chance.

@@julbri9069 They do a 5 issue miniseries pretty much once a year that takes place in that point of his life telling that kind of story, and I like it that way. Eddie and the symbiote have each gone through so much development that I really don't want it to ever return to how it was "in the old days" for the mainline comics. That's what's been keeping the Spider-Man comics from going anywhere for the last decade+, ignoring development just to make things "familiar" again.

one thing Rob has chosen to ignore for quite some time now is Carnage and Cletus are no longer bonded with each other, the Cletus you see with Carnage is a version of him that Carnage created the OG Cletus is now a Symbiote himself and fused with the Grendel Iron-man armor Symbiote, he was captured after his arc reactor exploded

[@aliveandwellinisrael2507]

Wonder what he'll be doing now. Carnage's latest big plan failed, but Cletus is still out there killing people or whatever he's doing. Perhaps he'll be the next Venom character to become a big threat. It would be interesting if Eddie had to wear Carnage to stop Cletus from achieving something really bad.

The biggest mistake Marvel made was bonding Venom with Spider-Man again when they did. Because it was only temporary, it was pointless. It would have been better to allow this entire plot to happen and then have Venom go back to Spider-Man with the caveat that only we the readers are aware of that Peter was supposed to end up as that evil version of he keeps the Symbiote and then that can maybe play out in the long term in some other events.

The last time I checked, as the 'king in black', he was "simply" a conciseness that controlled/ could manifest a proximity body, but all in all his bodies were symbiotes.

well. if we go down the line of carnage becoming good. i would say an easy way to set it up is that since that since all-blood was connected to carnage then maybe the effects of the purifying had somewhat of a effect on carnage. maybe just a little. or they just make eddie go insane and try to hunt down the next one who wears the venom symbiote. who knows.

at this point, the priority for venom is at least him not letting the bullet that is killing him kill him as it apparently is killed all symbiote matter it touches like matter and anit-matter, they make the comparison between carnage and anti-carnage and venom caught on quickly enough that if he and dylan stayed bonded since he is half symbiote he would be killed too, so he wants to make sure dylan does not die, his own survival is a second priority if anything
