I even admonished you and all the other younglings here for your disrespectful treatment of the benefactors of this and all the other threads that have endured here for so long, and yet you are polite to ME. I wonder why.
Anyway, to answer your question, I really don't have an opinion on this subject on account of the continued grudge I bear Marvel comics. I have been personal boycotting current Marvel titles because over the last 3 or 4 years the quality of stories seem so desperately contrived.I'm probably alone here, but it seems to me that Marvel is only producing comics so they can have more material for movies, which provide global exposure and interest, but always betray the character(s) and/or title they are meant to spotlight. What I mean is, you simply can't fit 20 or 30 years of story into a movie adaptation and do it any justice. A character can enjoy decades in the comics, and yet be killed in a half hour in the movie.
In the comics, Spiderman doesn't always win the battle, AND he fights a war he may never win. In the movies, he may be bruised and battered in the process, but he ALWAYS emerges the victor. His adversary rarely lives to see the error of his ways. But I digress...So, as far as answering your question, I'm not the person you'd ask. I'd be more able to help you remember the details of specific arcs, recommend titles, series or arcs that are worth reading, and answer questions about older comics.
Kiekan or Orange would be good to ask about this sort of thing. They're both are smart and give very detailed and thoughtful info, links, and pics.
😬 Was all of this necessary?
All he did was ask you about your thoughts on Gargan-Venom.
