Summary
monition : Contains spoiler for Symbiote Spider - Man 2099!Symbiotes in Marvel Comics have always been presented as immensely powerful cosmic beings that even have the potential to give godhood , though their ability - scale of measurement seems to have been dial back as of recent inSpider - Man 2099continuity with the institution of a new anti - Venomweapon . So much so , in fact , that one would be right to wonder if the symbiotes just got for good nerfed .
In a preview forSymbiote Spider - Man 2099#3 by Peter David and Rogê Antônio , Miguel O’Hara has teamed up with Kron Stone in an utterly shameful move that seemingly goes against everything Miguel digest for . At least , it would , if Miguel was n’t presently possessed by the young of the Venom symbiote - which , itself , has re - bind to Stone ( the original Venom 2099 ) .
The two join forces after Stone barge into O’Hara ’s office ( since Miguel is the new CEO of Alchemax ) . hop to steer Stone in the correct guidance after mistakenly believing he has control over his own symbiote , Spider - Man agrees to team - up with Stone ( who ’s also his half - brother ) if they leave the construction together right then . However , on the way out , they were come up to in the hallway by Alchemex protection , which used sonic arm telephone Beta Blasters to incapacitate both Spider - Man and Venom like it was nothing .
One of Spider - Man ’s Z - listing villains just get an absolutely terrifying new anatomy in Marvel Comics , making them an existent menace for the first time .
Spider-Man 2099 Turned Venomized ‘Upgrades’ Into Massive ‘Downgrades’
It used to be that a symbiote attack could have stand for the end of the mankind ( as show intheKing In Blackevent ) , but now , with these Beta Blasters , it seems anyone can take down these historically vicious Spider - Man antagonists . The guard who used the Beta Blasters seemed shocked that they actually worked ( which explicate the ‘ genus Beta ’ in the name ) , meaning this is a wholly new innovation in the Marvel Universe . However , while it may be fresh , it ’s here now , which utterly upsets the balance of great power in Marvel Comics lore .
Getting ‘ Venomized ’ in Marvel Comics was always synonymous with getting an ascent . Even someone as virtually inaccessible asDeadpool fix even more powerful when he wore the Venom symbiote and became Venompool . However , with these new Beta Blasters floating around , anyone with a Venomized raise from this point forrader would in reality be getting a pretty pregnant downgrade . It does n’t count if the Venomized characters - in - question ( like Deadpool ) were already powerful , as they would short become vulnerable to the Beta Blasters thanks to the symbiote they were wearing , making the symbiotes themselves dead worthless - or , as previously put , ‘ nerfed ’ .
Symbiotes Aren’t Totally Useless in Marvel Comics Canon - For 1 Important Reason
While the innovation of these Beta Blasters seemed to have closed the door on the symbiotes ’ corporate future tense in Marvel Comics canon , that ’s really not the pillow slip for one reason : they were invented in 2099 . The vast absolute majority of Marvel Comics is lay before the year 2099 , and the fact that2099is more of an substitute universe rather than a likely future tense only separates these weapons further from Marvel ’s main Earth-616 persistence . Therefore , while symbiotes might be nerfed in2099 , they ’re still as baneful as ever in the select Marvel Universe .
So , did Marvel just nerf symbiotes ? Yes and no . However , that ’s only assuming these Beta Blasters are able to put Spider - Man and Venom down for good , because if they ca n’t , then the response is a resonant ‘ no ’ . Although , it ca n’t be indicate that the Beta Blaster is at least effective enough to combatSpider - Isle of Man 2099andVenom , stand for it is still the thoroughgoing anti - symbiote weapon .
