Yes, it’s that time once again!
For today’s post we have a brief entry in the occasional series where I endeavour
to highlight the visual or narrative symmetry
between the Spider-Man and Spider-Girl comics.
For this entry, a look at another
example of Symbiote-Symmetry, once again delivered by MC2
co-creator, artist extraordinaire and friendly fella, Ron Frenz. And
yes, it’s another Venom
Symbiote
post too so consider this a sort of Venom:
The Last Dance tie-in!
First up, we have the trippy
one-shot Carnage
tale, Carnage: Mind Bomb. Specifically, this gnarly cover by artist Kyle
Hotz, who’s unique rendition of the psychotic red symbiote inspired the
look of Carnage
in the Spider-Man Unlimited animated series:
And here’s an interior page from Spider-Girl
#83 depicting the Venom symbiote bonded with Normie Osborn (after
receiving a hellfire burn from the vigilante Darkdevil)
as drawn by Ron Frenz:
Until I stop seeing the
systematic similarities of symbiotic and spidery symbolism, I remain
frogoat
