The Official Symbiote Thread

I would like to get some other fans' opinions on an essay I read recently by Corey Bond. His web site or column is "View from Oblivion," I believe. The essay is entitled "The Alien Symbiote." It was probably originally written before PlanetOTSymbiotes, so it would need some revising to fit in with our current understanding of them. The central premise, however, is still pretty convincing to me. I really think it's got potential for interesting storylines... what do others think?

Well, I didn't post a link, as it turns out (lazy me!), but this info should help.

lol wow I just got the maximum Carnage theme song, but the actual version from Green Jelly

hmmm i am unhappy because the symbiote dosage down in my end of jolly old Britain has been very weak the only thing keeping name from going into shock is a picture of carnage in my latest comic (which is one of those weird kiddy spider-man ones which my cousin bought me by accident)

Hmmm. Horrible by Nataku's standards? What things? Watch "Stacked?" Oh, God, he's sick...don't listen, Nataku!

Robo- still no luck mating the game-cube and PS2? Try alcohal.

Alcohol sometimes is the glue of love...

Fever earlier mentioned "Psycho-Analysing My Symbiote", a wonderful fan-fic that she initially directed us to. It's a great read--I recommend everyone check it out.

Also, all symbiote fans (who are of legal age, that is) should read the marvelous fictional works by Red and Nemo at this site...

If you like them (and how could you not?), please leave some sort of feedback or note of appreciation in the 'messages' section. I'm sure they would enjoy reading as many comments as possible.

I have been asked to contribute some fiction as well, but lack time and patience; so to honor their contributions, I will post a sketch that my kids and I drew for my friend Shawn (who moved out of my town recently and misses us terribly). Left to right are my sons Cameron, Alex and Brendan

Badsymbiote Im having some trouble getting that link to work can you please help me darling?

Of course, my sweet. Let's try this...

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thesymbiote2/

Looks like I can't use a shortcut. The stories are housed in the 'files' section. Sorry about the link.

OK--this one works. Computers can be so fussy...I mean--sure, they can process and compute, but they can't use good old-fashioned logic and reason.

true oh so very true

__Aww, the pic is adorable...my, what an interesting smile you're wearing in it!
__Bad S- you'll never believe who has joined you as a moderator. *hides face in shame* I've accepted a power that comes with responsibility! Worse yet, it's an implied responsibility to uphold order and fight chaos... *laughs* But I'm going to be lazy about it, like I am about everything! Hell, I'll go all out and declare right now: I am the irresponsible mod! I am the (gasp!) Immoderator!

Bad S: Very Cute. Can I ask why your sons have Mickey Mouse ears on?

PS. Good to hear from you again!

Goody. We can be lazy together, then. I try to undertake the duties whenever I can spare the time, and I have conscientiously tried to promote it when I have the opportunity. I'm glad that so many of the people I invited decided to join.
But, it's about time to extend a new round of invitations, don't you think? I think I should be limited to editing copy and promotion, to employ effective use of my critical nature and my big, verbose mouth.

Kayote--thanks for the sentiments--both of them. To answer your question, they were wearing those hats when I drew it. My middle son Cameron (who has Asperger's Syndrome--a mild form of Autism Spectrum Disorder, or ASD), wears his Mickey Mouse hat nearly every day--it's sort of a security blanket for him.

It kicks ass right? 😄

__Yes, I sent a couple invites. Now I see some requests for membership have come in from people I don't know! Excellent! Symbiote Group 2 is alive!
__Does anyone here know of some-one I should send invites to?
__I think copy editing (?) and promotions sounds HUGE. Does that mean setting up folders for members, or can they do that for themselves? Um, what does that mean? Anyhow, sounds impressive!
__I thought I might write a tutorial on how to format stories for our site. People ought to be warned. In fact, if they start a new fic with intentions of posting it on Sym 2, they may want to format it "Sym 2 style" from the get-go.

Just click on the invite and put there e-mail address on the invite list.

__Yes, I did that for two people...I may try to make contact with people who have written fan-fictions and invite them to join. I think I might ask Dyce if she'd like to post hers (she has the story AND a Venom poem, Bad S).
__Also, Josh, you may want to have more moderators, since messages have to be approved for posting. The more mods are checking, at different times of day, the faster things will go.

Ok them but I still check all most everyday, but I need find more people that well keep the good look of the group.

Very cute picture, BadSym. 😄

Badsymbiote your the best, glad to see you and yours are doing well 🙂

and yeah Green Jelly definetly kicked ass there, even tho I was in shock for a good 2 minutes just to have found that one! lol

Is this the video game theme? (I don't understand...)

it was the theme from the game but Green Jelly actually did a live version of the song with lyrics and such. I belive its the one you hear at the start menu

How fun! It's awesome to see fans expressing themselves in every possible medium. Spidey and his villains are everywhere. Wasn't there a CD out that was a collection of Spider-man rock songs? Hell, there have probably been a few.
