(Premise: I wanted to write a comic of Mac Gargan how I wanted Mac Gargan, simple as that. Set after 'MARVEL KNIGHTS', but before CIVIL WAR.)
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN VILLAIN: VENOM III
“RIPrint”
Page 1
Panel 1:
CAPTION: THE DAILY BUGLE
Show a molten plain, something out of the very pits of hell themselves. Ash and dust everywhere.
Panel 2: Show that same picture, but zoomed out a bit. We can see a brown edge surrounding it. Bits of white on the sides.
Panel 3: Zoom out more, and show that it was just J Jonah Jameson’s cigar in his mouth all along.
Panel 4: Show side view of Jonah sitting in his chair in his office in the bugle, the stereotypical setup, the infamous ‘SPIDER-MAN: THREAT OR MENACE?’ framed to his left (and our background) on the wall. Peter Parker stands in front of his desk, with a “Why me?” look on his face. Jonah has an “I’m going to rip this kid’s eyebrows off” kind of look. (As usual). Light from outside shines in through the window. It’s around noon.
J JONAH JAMESON: So… you want a raise.
PETER PARKER: Um…
PETER PARKER: Yeah.
Page 2
Panel 1: Jonah’s face.
Panel 2: Peter’s face.
Panel 3: Jonah’s mouth ripping open to shout.
J JONAH JAMESON: I'LL TELL YOU WHERE YOU CAN SHOVE YOUR RAISE--
Page 3
Panel 1: Street level entrance to the bugle, Pete rushing out from the doors – coffee stains, pencil shavings, and shredded paper all over him.
CAPTION: I’m Peter Parker. I’m Spider-man. And I am totally screwed.
(Lettered blue with black letters like in JMS’s Spider-man run)
CAPTION: Also, I think I maybe just got kinda fired? Totally not sure. The tornado blew me out of the building.
Panel 2: Show Peter walking down the street, down on his luck posture.
CAPTION: Great. Now what am I going to tell MJ? Aunt May? “Oh, hey guys. I decided to work at Burger Palace..” I can already see May’s double take. “Why, Peter?”
Panel 3: Far above Peter, on the ledge of a building, we see a thin outline in the air. And we can just barely make out eyes.
CAPTION: “I’ve always wanted to make people happy, in ways Spider-man can’t. Clogged arteries are totally the ‘in’ thing with the young people. B.T.W, we have to make you a Myspace at some point. Way of the future.”
Panel 4: We see a close up of two white eyes, with pupils inside the white, and black around them. A close up of VENOM’S face.
Page 4
Panel 1: We see Venom turn fully visible, slinging from the ledge towards our left on this side shot. Gargan’s symbiote design is just like his appearance in ‘Beyond!’ minus the tail at the moment.
CAPTION: My name is Mac Gargan. I. Hate. Liars. Frauds.
(Lettered black with white creepy letters.)
Panel 2: We see Jonah’s office from the front, Jonah sitting in front of a window.
J JONAH JAMESON: Hey, Robbie, c’mere a sec—
CAPTION: TRAITORS.
Page 5
Panel 1: We see Venom behind Jonah in that same shot as earlier.
CAPTION: I’ve been told that the spine of a traitor is especially easy to snap.
Panel 2: Peter turns up to look off panel. Shot is from under him.
CAPTION: Well, at least I don’t have to worry about—
(Peter’s caption here)
Panel 3: We see Jameson falling from a smashed window, Venom nowhere in sight. Glass rains down with him, he flails in the air.
Page 6
Panel 1: We see a side view and Spider-man slings in on a web to catch Jonah in mid-air, Jonah freaks out, shouting.
J JONAH JAMESON: YOU MENACE—YOU FREAKS!! I KNEW YOU’D BOTH TEAM UP ON ME ONE DAY—I KNEW IT!!!
Panel 2: We see Spidey and Jonah from the view of the building. Venom slings down toward them on multiple webstrands, his legs out, about to kick.
Panel 3: Venom swoops in and grabs Jonah by his collar, while kicking Spidey in his ribs.
VENOM: HANDS OFF!!
Page 7
Panel 1: A storage closet, dark and barely opened. One tiny light in the ceiling, the window was boarded up before. A stairway in the back leading to the regular building. Still in the bugle. Spider-man is thrown through the window, the wooden boards, and his body slams violently onto the floor in a multi-shot.
SFX: PSSHTT
Panel 2: Side view as Venom peeks his head in through the window, greenish saliva dripping from his tongue.
VENOM: Ssssssoooo, Spider-man. You got in the way again, huh? How doesssss it feel?
Panel 3: We see Spider-man cut up bad and on the floor, but he’s starting to get up.
SPIDER-MAN: …
Panel 4: Spider-man gets up and runs toward Venom in a multishot, fist outward.
CAPTION: Get one—good hit—just one—
Page 8
Panel 1: We see Spider-man’s point of view, Venom’s face and shoulders in front, Spidey’s fist out.
Panel 2: Same view, but now Venom’s scorpion tail rushes out from the outside, through the hole in the wall, and towards the camera.
VENOM: GOTCHA!
Panel 3: We see an aeirel view from the ceilings POV, as Spider-man leans to his left and dodges the tail, then throws his arms out in a webbing pose in a multi-shot.
SPIDER-MAN: Who’s got who now?!
Panel 4: Webbing connects with Venom’s face, we can tell he’s snarling underneath.
VENOM: MMMFKF—
Page 9
Panel 1: Side view of the room as Spidey yanks back, and Venom is pulled into the room, bringing in some brick and debris with him. His claws and tail flail.
SPIDER-MAN: YAAGH!!
Panel 2: We see Spidey sling himself out of the window via twin weblines in a slingshot formation.
SPIDER-MAN: And STAY DOWN, snaggletooth!
CAPTION: Gotta find Jonah—if he—if Mac finally got what he wanted, I swear—
Panel 3: Close up of Spidey’s eyes widening. (The mask).
J JONAH JAMESON: HEY! GET ME DOWN FROM HERE! HELP!!!
(The text bubble is from off panel, but we all pretty much know its his voice)
Page 10
Panel 1: Spidey slings around and toward Jonah in a multi shot, and we can see from a third person ‘over the shoulder’ view that Jonah is caught up in some webbing near the hole in the wall.
Panel 2: Same view. Venom leaps out from the wall and at Spidey and the camera.
VENOM: GONNA KILL YOU!!!
Panel 3: Wide side view, Spider-man tackled by Venom in mid air.
Page 11
Panel 1: Same view, Spider-man gets tackled into the wall of a building, brick and smoke firing out as a result.
SFX: WHAM
Panel 2: Spider-man’s point of view, Venom’s snarling face.
VENOM: WE—WILL—KILL—HIM…. AND YOU CAN’T… STOP….
Panel 3: Side view of the two grappling while pressed against the wall, the Venorpion tail impales the wall right next to Spider-man’s head.
SFX: CCHK
CAPTION: He keeps ranting about killing Jameson, and he could have by now, easily.
Page 12
Panel 1: Venom’s tail rips back, and looks like it’s going to lash at Spider-man again. It’s shaking, like a rattlesnake’s tail would.
SFX: SSSSSS
(Venom’s hissing)
CAPTION: When I was in that tiny room, he could have snapped Jonah’s neck, or impaled him, or killed him in one thousand different ways….I wonder…
Panel 2: Spider-man’s point of view. Spider-man slams his feet into Venom’s chest with full force.
Panel 3: Side view. Venom falls back from the hit, and down the side of the building.
VENOM: THAT WON’T WORK WITH USSS, SPIDER!
Panel 4: Venom’s fist clenching and a webline firing out.
Page 13
Panel 1: Side view. Spider-man leaps from the crumbling crater in the wall towards Jonah, hands out in front, like a ‘Superman dive’, but horizontal.
SPIDER-MAN: Hey! Gargan! Why didn’t you kill Jameson yet?
J JONAH JAMESON: HEY! YOU IDIOT, DON’T ENCOURAGE HIM!
Panel 2: Jonah’s point of view from in the webbing. Spider-man coming towards the camera, but Venom slinging upward right behind him from the webline shown earlier.
VENOM: BECAUSE!
Panel 3: Side view, Spider-man grabs Jonah and Venom comes at them from behind in the air.
VENOM: Wait…
CAPTION: Bingo.
Page 14
Panel 1: Side view. Spider-man running up the wall with Johan in tow. Venom slamming down into the webbing, and the wall behind it, clawing it up with fearsome force.
VENOM: Why—why did we go after Spider-man first?
VENOM: YOU!
Panel 2: Bird’s eye view just above the web net Venom made for Jonah, Venom snarling and looking up at the camera. Symbiote tendrils lashing around, very violent inner conflict. Gargan and the symbiote are arguing inside.
VENOM: WE HAD A DEAL! WE KILL JAMESON FIRST, REMEMBER?!
Panel 3: Side view of the top of the Bugle, Spider-man taking his first steps onto the rooftop with Jonah still in tow.
J JONAH JAMESON: Can you LET ME GO NOW?!
SPIDER-MAN: Sure.
SPIDER-MAN: Say please.
Page 15
Panel 1: Front view of Spider-man setting Jonah down.
SPIDER-MAN: There. Happy?
Panel 2: Jonah’s face. Shock, and fear.
Panel 3: Front view of Spider-man, Venom standing behind him, his tail rising up, towering over him menacingly.
SPIDER-MAN: … he’s right behind me, isn’t he?
Panel 4: Spider-man turning his head around, eyes go big on costume.
SPIDER-MAN: Nertz.
Page 16
Panel 1: Side view of entire rooftop of the Bugle, Venom smacks Spider-man aside with the broad side of his tail.
VENOM: Out of our way, wall crawler! He’s OURS!
Panel 2: Birds eye view, Spider-man is to Venom’s left, Jameson is a few feet in front of him.
CAPTION: I hope I’m right, I hope I’m right…
Panel 3: Over the shoulder view of Venom, Jameson falling on his butt in front of him, scrambling back in fear.
VENOM: And, now…
Page 17
Panel 1: Same birds eye view. Venom is a step closer to Jameson.
Panel 2: Venom’s face close up, tendrils whisping off of the face seem to linger to the panel’s right…
VENOM: So, Jonah… ssscared?
Panel 3: Venom’s head lashes around, against Gargan’s will.
VENOM: WHAT?!
CAPTION: Said it once, so I’ll say it again. Bingo!
Page 18
Panel 1: Front view of Spider-man standing still, no pose. Too casual, but on purpose.
SPIDER-MAN: What? Jameson’s RIGHT THERE, Mac! Go on! Get him!
Panel 2: Side view of Venom’s feet. The tendrils slither from Gargan’s toes toward the left of the panel, forcing Gargan to move with them.
VENOM: WAIT! WAIT! THIS—
Page 19
Panel 1: Side view, Spider-man on left of the panel, Venom on the right. The tendrils slither toward the left, but Gargan is resisting, pulling back.
VENOM: THIS ISN’T WHAT I WANT! YOU—YOU STUPID THING! LET ME KILL JAMESON FIRST!
CAPTION: And this is the flaw I wanted to exploit. Mac Gargan hates Jameson just like Eddie Brock used to hate me, and just like that symbiote still does hate me. The man can’t help himself… but neither can ol’ inkstain.
Panel 2: Three way side view, Venom in the middle, Spider-man on the far left, Jameson on the far right. The symbiote slithers towards Spider-man, but Gargan is pulling back – his human side showing more and more, as he tries to reach Jameson on the right.
SPIDER-MAN: Trouble in paradise?
MAC GARGAN:LET ME—LET ME—LET ME—
(Letter this like a regular bubble)
SYMBIOTE: MUSSSST—KILLLLLLLLL---
(Letter this like Venom’s creepy black bubble, white text, distorted bubble)
Page 20
Panel 1: Same view as last, Gargan stretching towards the right as much as he can, the symbiote stretching to the left as much as it can (forming Venom’s claws, while Gargan tries to reach Jameson with his bare hands)
MAC GARGAN: HE’S RIGHT HERE—
SYMBIOTE: HE’SSSSSS RIGHT HERE—
CAPTION: They can only put so much stress on each other before it gets to one of them.
Panel 2: Same view again, but Gargan lashes his head up and his eyes close, in pain.
CAPTION: The symbiote once tried to leave Eddie like this, but it was too ingrained in him. Their bond was too strong at the time. Same rule applies to Mac, at the moment.
Panel 3: Side view of the whole building, Gargan falls onto the ground, tendrils lashing around him. The symbiote forms its face above him, snarling.
SYMBIOTE: NOOO!! THISSS … ISN’T…
CAPTION: They feel each other’s pain.
Page 21
Panel 1: Same view as before. Gargan lies on the ground, covered by the now unconscious symbiote.
Panel 2: Spider-man looks over at Jonah, who is still on the ground. (three way view from earlier, except now Gargan is down in it).
SPIDER-MAN: So…
SPIDER-MAN: Wanna, like, do lunch?
J JONAH JAMESON: Get—get off my building. I’m calling the NYPD.
CAPTION: Another satisfied customer.
Panel 3: Spider-man webslinging between buildings, battered and bruised after the brutal fight.
CAPTION: Such is the life!
Page 22
Panel 1:
CAPTION: THE VAULT, MAXIMUM SECURITY SUPERVILLAIN PRISON
(Obviously just the caption for the name of the place)
We can see a door with a tiny window.
CAPTION: Next time… we agree…
(Lettered black with white font, this is Venom’s inner monologue again)
Panel 2: Close up on the window of the door, about two feet away now.
CAPTION: We have our priorities in check now…
Panel 3: Extreme close up of the little door in the window. Venom’s face snarling on the other end.
VENOM: NEXT TIME, WE KILL SPIDER-MAN!!!
THE END
