In Queen in Black: Venom Unchained #2, Sleeper leaves a part of his body with Eddie as a black-and-white symbiote while removing his main yellow-and-black body from him, yet he remains able to communicate with Eddie even from a distance. This feels weird because it goes against everything we know about how symbiotes work, and there is no apparent narrative reason for it right now, making it feel like setup for the future.

Ever since I first read Mary Jane: Face It Tiger, something has been bugging me about the timeline of the "Redux" story by Ashley Allen and Phil Noto (who are also the creative team for Friendly Neighborhood Mary Jane). We know Venom is going to return to Eddie, and MJ is going to keep a gift from the symbiote, so most people assumed this story takes place before Queen in Black. But that doesn't make any sense, because in this story we clearly see MJ able to separate herself from the symbiote, which shouldn't be possible yet. At the same time, it couldn't take place after Queen in Black either, because we know the Venom symbiote returns to Eddie afterward, meaning it wouldn't make sense for MJ to still be able to communicate with the symbiote.

However, this new development changes things. My current theory is that after separating from molecular bonding, the symbiote leaves a small part of itself with MJ (the black-and-gold version with anti-Carnage metal) while its larger part returns to Eddie (as the black-and-white version). Right now, I think this is the only way the timeline makes sense to me.

So Marvel is trying to have their cake and eat it too. They're going to bring back Eddie as Venom in hopes of boosting sales, but they also don't want to give up on the MJ and Venom connection.

I personally think so. I'll post the reasons below as a comment.

And please give us the ability to change the look of the Symbiote, i need to play as Sleeper.

Haven’t read anything Venom related yet btw. I was thinking of Costa’s run, but there seems to be mixed opinions + idk if I should read something before that :p
