Okay, so you know how in the last issue of Thunderbolts, the Swordsman and Venom go at it and in the very last page, there’s that big splash of the Swordsman’s sword going through the mid-section of Venom, only he’s pulled back the symbiote bits of him to show that the sword is actually disembowling (and probably electrocuting to some point) Max Gargan, the current host?
Deep breath, keep typing.
Get this: what if that’s it for poor Gargan? What if the symbiote is going to just let that guy die from the wound and go slink off somewhere else to find a new host? It could happen; whatever the crazy telepath crew is doing in that book, the Venom symbiote tends to be rather demanding on its hosts and Gargan’s bitten off a lot more than he can chew with Venom. No, really. More than he can chew.
This would mean that the symbiote needs a new host. Marvel’s been pretty coy, but there does seem to be big plans ahead for Venom and Spider-Man.
There’s something really frightening about this piece of teaser art.
Would they? Could they? DARE THEY?!?!
I’m going to go back to bed. And leave the light on.

That’d be AWESOME.
I’d totally start reading comics with a Goby/Venom
Well, not as Kewl as that New Avengers cover of a Venomerine (which barely happened inside the cover, what a wasted opportunity that was).
I’d hope they’d just put Gargan in stasis or something and forget about him. That way, they get him out of the picture without needing to do a death someone later might want to reverse. Maybe they could ship him over to the Initiative, and Dr. Nazi could do some experiments on Gargan. They jacked up Sabretooth like a bajillion needless times. I think it’s time Gargan got his.
