Toxin

Yeah cops sure love donuts. hehe Maybe Toxin will have to take breaks between fights to hit up a dunkin donuts. That would be awesome. lol 🙂

so whats so special about toxin what can he do that venom or carnage

Well... he 0wn3d Carnage in his first battle.

yeah but sum1 said thats because birthing takes it ou of a sym as carnages words were: venom never said birthing hurt this much make us feel thiss wasted ..... but he then proceeded in part 4 2 beat v&c

I really like the idea of the new symbiote, and maybe with his sales, he could get his own monthly comic and ressurect some of the older symbiotes.

Well lets wish the best to Toxin. Hopefully it can become a great seller and help Marvel to have some extra cash to help out Spiderman. The last issues seem like they might new some new people working on them.

When is the comic coming out?

When are these toxin comics coming out?

I read somewhere that the release date was pushed back to the 16th of April.

This year? So how come everyone has pics of the comics already then?

Oh, I'm talking about the new limited miniseries coming out in a couple of weeks. Most of the pics posted in this forum are from his first appearances in Venom v. Carnage which has been out for a while now. It's now in TPB form as well. The others are previews of the covers found on the Internet for the new mini, such as this:

It seems OK, the theme...not really expanding on Venom's experiences too much.
__Hmm...Toxin has a more talkative "Other" than Venom, but he refers to himself in the singular. His sym is a mere spawn, but it's familiar with Western culture (enough to have pronounced ideas about what it wants to explore in literature), ...it's a god-damn prodigy! Pat IS a fantastic "parental" figure, then. So why'd he abandon his baby?
__I don't hate it, but it's just another, severe inconsistency in the presentation of symbiotes.
__Why was the Venom Symbiote so clueless about human social customs and moral values, if syms can absorb all this info so readily? Why did it always seem to find Eddie's explanations necessary? Why was Red passive and non-talkative, as a spawn, if they're born with such complete personas?
__I'll go pick it up and see what I think of the action, the villains. Most importantly, I'll see if there are any signs that the theme may distinguish itself from Jekyll and Hyde...otherwise, I'll just go check the book out at the librairy!
