I utterly despise web-shooters.

Organic webs are a far superior power to the darn web shooters.

Mostly because the web shooters shut off fans brains and they assume that peter parker must be a genius at all sciences because of it.

I feel that the Reason venom needs to be an alien entity isbecause it opens far more doors for story-telling than if the symbiote was a creature whipped up in a lab.

But why I like it is because it makes the symbiote... venom... scared and alone. Desperately seeking companionship on a world with no other beings like itself.

Its a very... I dare say... human entity. Defined by its isolation and the hatred it recievesfrom every other thoughtful being around it.

I definitely agree that Eddie Brock was handled better as a character in the ultimate universe.

And yes, I thought it was awful how many characters origins were similiar in Spectacular Spider-man, it was incredibly annoying... In fact I largely found Spectacular Spider-man to be an annoying overly long-winded over rated show...

That being said... Eddie Brock and Venom were absolutely best in the Spectacular Spider-man, I thought they juggled the different origin stories together and blended them almost perfectly.

As for x-men, the characters powers all come from a single source. But what makes them heroes, and what makes them who they are... is different with every single character.

As well by not having to explain how every x-men character got their power it allows a much larger amount of characters in the works because there doesn't have to be long-winded origin stories for everybody.

"If he's a CIA agent in Earth-616, there's no reason he can be something even more normal, a scientist. "

Both are stupid, and I hate both.
