Symbiote Texture?
hahaha...yo whenever you see Venom or Carnage, do you imagine what the symbiote actually feels like? Like if you touch it, is it soft and slimy, or firm and smooth?
I mean, look at Carnage and all his wavy tendrils, are they supposed to feel like rubber or what? Or like melted cheese?
just a thought.

I would imagine it is like a liquid, but viscious like tar, but when it latches onto someone, it solidifies and seems like rubber.
Like paint that dries really quickly and has a life of its own.

Anyone played Resident Evil? Doesn't the Licker kinda remind you of Carnage?

The amount of times I have seen The Licker, I have NEVER thought of Carnage.

They both got the same reddish nasty skin thing going...with the long alien tongue (more like Venom) and the white eyes....they crawl on walls, theyre' savage and rip you apart....
sounds pretty similar to me

I imagine it's like a warm rubbery feeling. that can quickly change into a more lucid state.

I alwats pictured it with a cloth like texture, or at least when Spidey wore it. Seeing as he thought it was a normal costume, and the symbiote was able to fool everyone around him too. Though, with Brock, I think it has that tough leathery feel everyone has already described.

Which pictures? Each artist has their own representation of the character. All the newer ones seem to have him be shiney and liquid-like. Though, the original (as in the drawings done in Amazing Spider-man #300) was solid black, just like how Spider looked with the Symbiote on. The only difference, of course is the addition of a mouth (and in that issue, Venom's teeth wern't sharp and all sadistic looking, neither were his eyes. Also, he didn't have the long tongue).

I always thought that, too. It's one part artistic interpretation and one part symbiote host--that's what decides how it'd look. I thought the same thing that VENOMfan did--he's the guy called VENOM91 above--he changed his name while goofing around, and he hasn't been back to change it yet. I wonder where he is, anyway. He should have been back by now.

Old Venom vs. New Art
Yip...I also realized when Todd McFarlane drew Venom, he resembled Spidey in his black costume rather closely....just more beefed up and the addtion of pearly whites--no huge snarl, dripping goo tongue...looked more spooky, less alien-like.

Now, for actually wearing one, that’s a whole different thing. I think you'd feel extremely healthy, seeing as the Symbiote’s can heal the host from just about injury and even make the host live normally when they have a fatal disease like Cancer (shown in Amazing Spider-man #430-431 with Cosmic Carnage, tells that Kasady has Cancer and that the only reason he is still alive is because of the Symbiote.)
Also, I think that when it’s in the form of casual clothing, it would just feel like an extra comfortable version of those clothes. This is talked about in Web Of Spider-man #1, where Parker talks about how comfortable he thought the Symbiote was when he wore it. I think that you'd feel as though someone were always watching you and always seemed to know what you were thinking (that is, if it makes itself aware to the wearer, like Eddie Brock or Ann Weying. It never did this when bonded with Parker or Reilly). When it spoke, I think it you would either see it as images in your mind or it would have kinda a dark, mysterious sounding, almost snake-like voice (that would be telepathic of course).
While in an actual Venom-type form, where the Symbiote covers the host's body completely, I believe it would feel like a second skin almost. Or like tape stuck to your skin that you couldn't take off. And if you tried, it'd feel as though you were ripping skin out (Shown in the end of the Maximum Carnage story, when Venom starts ripping the Symbiote off Kasady and again when he does it to Donna in Spider-man #52).
Also when the Symbiote takes control, I don’t think the host would even realize it. It'd be like he/she was doing the actions themselves.
Something to Note: None of my beliefs follow the recent versions of Venom. I really didn't like that whole arc in the begging of Spectacular Spider-man Vol. 2, where it made Brock look like a complete wuss and basically changed the Symbiote into a pathetic parasite with nothing better to do than go around and munch on adrenaline (that, in itself, was a stupid idea IMO).

kiekan, the SSM totally sets up the Tsunami version of Venom. I liked those issues, though the drawings did take getting used to. I take it, then, that you're not a fan of Marvels new manga style.

Actually, I do like it. I loved the art in Wolverine: Snikt!, it was amazing. Most of my comic reading comes from manga, lol (Berserk and Hellsing will forever be some of the best stories I have ever read, along with Venom, of course).

So, I'm just trying to understand why you don't like the newly defunct Venom monthly. I just don't get it. You don't love Daniel Way, I get that. But that aside, didn't you think the content of the story was good? I loved Spidey's involvement, and the FF, and Fury--you didn't like all that? The cells of clones, and those insidious "Bobs"--what could have made the story more enjoyable for you. Sorry, I can barely type right now--I've got the Kids in the Hall's first season on DVD in the background right now, and I might have to turn it off, 'cuz it's too funny to tune out.

I was reffering mostly to the first five issues of SSM Vol. 2. I like the monthly issue now, besides the things I noted through PM. If those things were to be fixed, then the series would be up there as some of the best I've read (from the looks of it though, it doesn't seem to fit in with those SSM issues, Brock doesn't act even remotly like he did in those issues).
