So is Knull really the next big villain or is this just artificial popularity pushed by a publisher similar to how DC did Batman Who Laughs? Because I struggle to see the appeal, and question the long term ramifications of such a character embedded so hard in Marvel fiction. The symbiotes are no longer cool unknown creatures from deep space, they're now the creations of some OC creation god character that's a mix between cosmic and magic (and no this isn't any better than Bendis's stupid retcons). Knull not only cheapens symbiotes, but really screw with characters like Venom and Carnage (I forget what even happened to Carnage after Absolute Carnage).

COULD Knull be interesting later down the road under different writers, and if he's so unsalvageable, how does one even begin removing him from Marvel lore? Also talk about symbiotes I guess.
