So, over on (a pirate site) I see they have Venom Wars #2.
Hey, great! I like Venom. But I'm not a regular comic book reader. I'm very much a newbie. So I figure "Well, thats part 2, I should get part 1 first."
And that's where all the trouble began. There's like 10 different comic branches all called "Venom Wars 1" and they all have different covers. And they all have assumingly different stories!
I just want to read a Venom comic book, where he does the Venom things! And now I see the description "The symbiot has bonded with Eddie, and his son Derek"
WHO THE FUCK IS DEREK??? I thought Eddie was supposed to be a high schooler in Peter Parkers class! How does a 16 year old have a son???
So now I'm REALLY confused! I feel like I need a comic before the comic to get me caught up to the comic, but only if THATS the comic I'm supposed to read, because there's also 10 comics all named the same thing.....and I'm not experienced enough to know what the fuck I'm doing.
I assume I'M the probem, with my lack of knowledge on the subject, but also.........what the hell even is this? I thought "Venom Wars #1" would be enough in the search bar to get me the comic to read about Venom.
I'm not even sure what "Venom Wars" is, but I assume it's Venom, having some kind of war from Venom's perspective with Spiderman, or maybe Carnage. Or whomever. But I assume it's a story told through Venom/Eddies perspective. But where do I start? I assumed #1 would be the start of the story.
And now I'm overwhelmed, and don't know what is going on.
Yes, the Wolverine vs Hulk scene was a nod to Wolvie’s first appearance.
No Wolverine has never worn a comic accurate suit prior to Deadpool and Wolverine. There were the black suits from the X-Men movies. But nothing comic accurate.
Yes Logan is 5’3” in the comics. There were rumors they would show that through movie magic, like was done in the Lord of the Rings. John Rhys Davies is the tallest of the actors, but plays one of the shortest. I always felt the height was not an issue in the movies. Plus it got rid of the little man short fuse stereotype. Logan was just a cranky old bastich.
