Spiderman 3 **Possible Spoiler alerts**
MattBurns:
didn't the black suit story line go on for a long while though?
it's been a while since I've read comics, but I remember him in the black for a long time. I was disappointed when he went back to the red and blue.

He wore a black costume for a while, but the Symbiote storyline itself lasted just a few months. Starting in Secret Wars (December '84) and, Spider-Man got the costume and returned to earth (Amazing Spider-Man #252). It started to act up and he seperated from it within a few issues of returning to Earth with the help of Mr. Fantastic (#259 and crossing over into Fantastic Four). In Web of Spider-Man's debut issue (April, '85), the symbiote escape and tried to rebond with Spider-Man and he went through the infamous Church tower scene where he thought he'd killed it. It wasn't revisited again until a full three years later in a storyline starting in ASM #298 where Venom had some small cameo/shadowed appearances leading up to his first appearance in #300. All told, the full story is contained in less than twelve issues' worth of stories. As a guage of that in comics terms, the Phoenix saga in X-Men lasted from about X-Men #99-#137 (About twelve issues in there sidetracking for the most part). Brock wasn't even a real noteworthy supporting character until after he became Venom, mostly being kind of an afterthought.
Spider-Man did wear a black cloth costume for about three years, though. He wore it pretty consistently from the time he seperated with the symbiote (ASM 259) up until Mary Jane asked him to get rid of it after #300.

This is not a comic book thread. This is a movie thread.
Discuss the movie. There's a forum dedicated to discussing comics. Take it there.

I haven't seen the movie yet but I want to. I hope I'm not disappointed.
I will admit all my knowledge of Spiderman pretty much comes from the animated series from the early 90s.

i just think, while we are talking about Venom, who by the way was a big reason to get into spiderman when i was a kid, it would be nice if he had have survived. Raimi said he wouldn't do another spidey and so did maguire, so this trilogy is closed to me, but no one ever said anything about Venom. you have to admit when he came into his own (specifically Maximum Carnage, but he had some good stuff going for him as an antihero) he grew into a fun, albiet not too deep character.
i just think a Venom movie would be cool is all, and now that's not gonna happen
