Anyone have any idea of the plot of SM2

I heard a while back that Venom might be the story for this one??

I believe that has been pushed back possibly to Spider-Man 3. Spider-Man 2 will mostly surround Spidey vs. Dr. Octopus, with likely a subplut involving Harry Osbourne's anger at Spider-Man over the death of his father.

John Jameson's son was an astronaut, he went on a mission and brought back a parasite without knowing (symbiote venom). Spidey save the guys from the shuttle (I think) and he got infected and one morning he woke up and he was black suited spider-man and he realized that he had all his powers enhanced, he was stronger, faster. And Carnage was a piece of that symbiote that stucked with a psycho killer... that's why carnage uses knives, axes shaped weapons. (someone elaborate more, I've just saw this on the animated series)

its too bad Venom wont be in the third movie... mysterio really sucks :(

Jameson's son was an astronaut but he brought back a moon rock that turned him into a werewolf.

the symbiote black suite was originally gotten on a different world when Spiderman and other hero's faught in the secret wars against the beyonder. The suite turned out to be alive and spiderman denounced it. Eddy brock hated spiderman for ruining his new journalist career. Short story. Eddie Brock and the suite merged.

from the original spiderman comics

Black costume background - Spidey got the black costume during the "Secret Wars" mini-series way back in the 80's. Captain America had a busted shield and somewhere on the alien planet there was a machine that could read your thoughts and manifest your desired thought and the machine mended his shield. Spidey's costume ws ragged out so he went to the machine, made his "wish", and a black ball appeared. When he touched the ball it grew on him and it became his new suit. It was alive and symbiotic, but was also killing him so he rejected it and it's hated/loved him ever since.

I'm not sure where thta astronaut story came in. Is that part of the Ultimate series?

Secret Wars - 1984

The John Jameson account you refer to, is no where close to the comic book origin of the symbiote. Spidey received the alien costume during the Secret Wars comic series. A lot of super heroes got new duds during that, only Spidey's was actually an alien symbiote that had been brought to the planet by the Beyonder. Eventually Peter realized that it was invading his mind and sought to permanently remove it. Feeling spurned and hurt, it found someone that shared those same feelings..Eddie Brock (he blamed Spiderman for losing his job among other things). From that Venom was born. He has all of Spiderman's abilites plus doesn't set off Spidey's "spider sense". Later, when Spiderman defeated Venom, Eddie Brock went to prison where he was locked up with Kletus Casady, the serial killer. The alien symbiote went looking for Eddie and busted him out. During the escape a piece (most likely and offspring of some kind, since the symbiotes reproduce asexually) of the symbiote was left behind, which joined with Kletus to form Carnage. Carnage is more like a natural symbiote (no Spiderman abilities). On the surface it's kinda gooey and take the shape and form of whatever the host imagines, similar to the liquid Terminator.

Personally, I think Venom would be a good movie character because he represents the darker side of the vigilante. He is not inherently evil per se. He still has some moral code to protect the innocent and the like, he just punishes the "bad guys" violently without remorse. Carnage on the other hand is pure evil, he seeks to destroy and kill because he thinks it's fun. I would compare Venom more to Magneto. Both are labeled as "bad guys", but their intentions are similar to the heroes, just they go about it in extreme ways.

I htink the John Jameson story everyone thinks is the origin of venom from the early 90's fox cartoon sereis. In that series John Jameson was an anstrounaut and came back from space with the symbiote.

In the Ultimate Spiderman Storyline though, the symboite was something that Brock and Parker's fathers were working on together before they died. It was intended to bond to a person and help cure diseases (namely cancer).

Venom and Carnage would be great.

I'd also love to see Mysterio, they could do some awesome graphics with his powers, would be unreal to see.

Good ol' fishbowl head.

And yeah, jameson's son being an astronaut and bringing the infected rock back is from "Spider-man: The Animated Series" or known as "Spider-man TAS". That 3 part episode is bloody great.

    • Visual Studio finally gets long-awaited feature that developers will love by Usama Jawad Visual Studio Code is Microsoft's popular, lightweight, open-source code editor, it is actually Visual Studio that is the company's flagship integrated development environment (IDE). Although the IDE already offers a boatload of useful features for developers, Microsoft has finally introduced a long-requested capability that will be loved by many. While developers have already been able to create Git pull requests (PRs) directly within Visual Studio for the past couple of years, it had not been possible to review a PR without switching to the browser, until now. Microsoft revealed in December 2025 that it is working on UX that enables developers to do just that, and fast-forward to June 2026, and Visual Studio finally has native capabilities to open and inspect a PR, discuss feedback, and wrap up the review, all without switching to the browser. This integration works for both GitHub and Azure DevOps (including on-prem). Developers have access to multiple surfaces to open a PR, including Git Repository, Git Changes, and the Git menu in Visual Studio. Once you open a PR, all the important details will be immediately visible to you, from where you can navigate to various levels of granularity and branch states, depending on the reviews that you are engaged in. As you would expect, you also get a diff view that enables you to see code changes inline or side-by-side in a separate panel. You can also review commit-by-commit. Additionally, this UX fosters collaboration as you can leave comments, reply to threads, and resolve conversations easily. Naturally, you can also leverage Copilot to apply a code suggestion to fix a potential issue. When you are done, you have the ability to approve, complete, and merge the PR. This is a pretty major feature as it has been requested heavily for the past few years. You can try it out in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7, made available here recently. Microsoft plans to enhance this experience further in future releases with comment filtering, a timeline of PR activity, and more.

    • Around 68% of developers are now using AI to generate code during development, and some experts are saying that a single developer using AI tools can now do the work of an entire team of 4 to 5 engineers.  According to Figma's State of the Designer 2026 report, 72% of designers now use generative AI in their workflows and 91% say it improves the quality of their work, not just their speed.  But does this mean web developers and designers are becoming less relevant, or are they simply evolving into a different kind of role? Would love to hear from developers and designers here has AI made your job easier, or do you feel threatened by how fast these tools are improving
