Swapping Black Cat And Venom In Amazing Spider-Man And Keeping Flash An Amputee

After attending Emerald City Comic Con, a week-and-change ago, user Symbiobro posted to Spider-Man Crawlspace message boards about his experience there talking to Dan Slott.

He wrote that he "told him that I thought Anti-Venom was the best the character has ever been, and also praised Agent Venom. Two things I learned were that in ends of the earth, instead of Black Widow and Silver Sable with Spidey, it was supposed to be Agent Venom and Black Cat, and apparently this can be seen in a vision of the future in a free comic book day issue? But then Felicia was busy in Daredevil, and Agent Venom was in circle of 4.

Here's what was…

And here's what was originally planned, it seems.

The other thing I learned from him was that apparently a lot of writers have wanted to give Flash his legs back, through things like the lizard serum and whatnot, and Slott basically has managed to block them on almost every attempt, only accepting robot legs. I totally agree with him that it's too important for the character.

No mysterious South African physicians for Flash Thompson it seems! And it may have made for a different Amazing Spider-Man #25 today!

Um, spoilers.
