I never read comics books as a kid, so I feel like I'm getting caught up on what I missed out on. Venom: Separation Anxiety gets four stars from be due to the amazing art, the interesting story lines, and it simply fun.I admit however, that Eddie Brock confuses me. I'm unsure of who he really is, which for me makes the ending of the series very good. (no spoilers).
This is really four different arcs.“The Mace” was pretty good, albeit a bit random.“Nights of Vengeance” was good. Being that this is a Venom collection, I expected a bit more of Venom but Vengeance is a good sidekick/not actually a sidekick, more of a partner.“The Exile Returns” was definitely the weak link (and the reason for the loss of a star). Ben Reilly aka Scarlet Spider is just a whiny emo bitch and I can’t get into that.“Separation Anxiety”, as the titular arc, was by far the best. I wa...
I don't read the older comics too often but I needed to get up to date with the Venom arcs and comics that didn't feature Flash Thompson as the host. So first off: Mace narrating his every move was both annoying and hilarious. Second: Scarlet Spider is SOOOOO angsty. Good lord. I don't think I've heard that much whining since...anime. Third: Eddie's mullet 💯 🔥 👌
This was part of my Venom and King in Black reading order.Been reading lots of disappointing 90s comic series that I didn't read back then, and they're mostly disappointing.. BUT, this one was actually nice, you DO have to read the previous Venom mini-series if you're like me and you need to read everything chronologically, it's not like a MUST to know what's happening, but if you do read previous Venom series, you know where Brock is currently in his life, who's around him, and what he wants to...
This was an exhausting mess of a collection. In order to follow Venom's adventures chronologically without reading all of the Spider-Man books as well, you've got to just lot a ton of stuff slide or yo are going to be Lost.This story starts with Venom still on the West Coast with the underground cult he's been hanging out with, protecting them from gangs, corporations, aliens, whathaveyou. The first story involves a misunderstood character who appears to be a villain but ended up an ally because...
This comic showcases some of the best of Venom and it has some ties to the Clone Saga of Spider-man, so we got to see Ben Reilly (Scarlet Spider) do some webslinging to combat Venom. I love the artwork in this and the story was great. Brock is fighting his connection with the symbiote, not sure who's responsible for the worst actions committed by Venom when they are bonded. He is not to keen to find out where he stops and the symbiote begins.
90s Venom. Just. So. Bad.

A mixed bag of venom stories so brimming with 90's aesthetic that all the characters might as well be wearing shellsuits.The standout highlight was the four-issue tussle with the original Scarlet Spider and the criminally underused female Symbiote.I think I probably had unrealistic expectations for the titular Separation Anxiety arc, because I've wanted to read it since I was a kid. The symbiotes have really interesting designs but the dialogue and motivations have unfortunately not aged like a
I've read a lot of Venom comics so far – Birth of Venom, Vengeance of Venom, Lethal Protector, Maximum Carnage, Enemy Within, Dark Origin – and the series has mostly been hit-or-miss up to this point. I was beginning to fear that the Venom series of comics was doomed to be entirely mediocre, or at best only sporadically great. Then I read Separation Anxiety, and all hope in Venom as both a character and a series was restored. It's about damn time!The Separation Anxiety graphic novel, similar to

I've read the four issues in this collection that feature Scarlet Spider numerous times, especially as a kid, and it is actually one of my favorite Ben Reilly stories. It features the debut of his iconic Scarlet Spider costume. I lov...

"The Mace" and "Nights of Vengeance" are skippable fluff. But "Return of the Exile" and "Separation Anxiet"y" itself are gold. However "Return of the Exile is in the Complete Clone Saga / Ben Reilly collections, so this is potentially not good value if you have a decent spider-library.
So we get a few different stories and as always, different levels of bad and good. So let's start with Venom: The Mace. A super 80's/90's action hero decides to enter Brock's world and they each hunt each other down after trying to stop a gang war. Miscommunication brings them to eventually fight side by side. This story is very cheesy but nothing horrible just decent with some really cool fights. Next up is Venom Nights of Vengeance. So this has a knockoff Ghost rider and Venom teaming up to ta...
