I know exactly what you mean. His speech patterns were so uneducated--so much use of double negatives--it betrayed the well-spoken Brock we know and love. At first I absolutley hated it--I thought Brock was drawn far to boorishly, but after I read it a couple of times, he became much more endearing to me personally. I felt so sorry for him when the symbiote was out tramping around--only coming back to Brock when it needed an adrenaline fix. Eddie gave the symbiote evrything--and it didn't care--it just used him. Seeing Eddie actively praying and begging for the symbiote's attention really made me care for the new version of the character.
brock scares me...he looks mean....besides he wanted to die of cancer.......it would have neen good for the world...either venom would have
a. finally died
b. found a better host, and the host wouldnt care about spiderman(unless you want this whole "you ruined my life by sticking me with this thing" story arc.). the worst that could happen(besides what I meantioned) is that the symbiote would have taken control(and be fighting over control) of the person with spiderman saving them with the FF4's cool sound gun, or some bells.
then again if you think about the symbiot pre SSM, it was simply a creature who had been rejected by its"love", confused about parker(many negative thoughts(if you remember when peter tricked it by asking it to come back and bond with him(mean spider) and it tried to leave brock,and along with brocks negative spider thoughts
ended up creatin venom
either way now that I think about it...venom woulda died so long ago.....WHY DO YOU HATE ME BADSYMBIOTE?
on topic...symbiote texture...right. I ahve an Ultimate Venom action figure. i imagine the tendrils would feel kind of like the ones affixed to the figure. Soft kinda oozing, and very malleable.
KIDS IN THE HALL!!!! Canadian humor at its finest. Just about the only thing I like from Canada...besides Logan. and Tom Green. shush, Tom is cool...err, was, I dunno about now. I think he may have gone insane after divorcing Drew Barrymore.
Oh...right, on topic...the texture must be like warm silly putty, kinda gooey, but it holds together well and its always moving...at least, that's what i think it would feel like. Imagine that on the naughty parts...oooo...Ok im done.
You're naughty--an attribute I regard highly. As for Tom Green, I have this to say about marriage--It's sure tough, but generally I'd say that you should at least try it for more than a week before you annul it.
texture, ok, you need an open mind for this one. i imagine it as liquid silk. soft and mallable like corn starch and mercury, smooth and ressilient like silk. it makes sense too since stretch silk that is thick enough can stop a bullet.

Excellent description, DJ--very descriptive, especially the silk and corn starch. P.S. I haven't had much succes finding Typhoid Mary books at one of my usual comic shops here, but I haven't looked at the other 2 yet. Now that Marvel's yanking Tsunami, I'll have a little more money and time to look. Thanks again for the info you gave me.
she's made up the best pet name ever. who doesn't want to call a lover "schmoopy"?
