TheSSurfer Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Toxin First Appearance Discussion I have read on a couple forums that Venom vs Carnage 3 is supposed to be Toxins first full app, however on the CGC labels, they say otherwise. Which case is correct? And which Venom vs Carnage is infact the true first app of Toxin? Is there a reason why 3 would be his first app but CGC doesn't recognize it as so, or is CvV 2 the true first app?

Juggernaut Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 #1 - 1st appearance of Patrick Mulligan #2 - 1st appearance of Toxin #3 - Toxin appearance Note: #2 - Pat Mulligan is seen transforming into toxin, toxin is seen and the name "toxin" is given to the symbiote by Carnage or Venom (can't remember who) This community has given 1st appearance status to other characters for even less reasons or evidence. Basically, #2 is the 1st appearance of Toxin. ygogolak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This set is a hard one to complete. Just this week I completed it (All CGC 9.8) with #1 being the last one I needed. According to the census there are plenty of #1's out there but only a few #2's and about 4 each of #3 & #4. CGC 9.8 that is. 4 hours ago, Juggernaut said: #1 - 1st appearance of Patrick Mulligan #2 - 1st appearance of Toxin #3 - Toxin appearance Note: #2 - Pat Mulligan is seen transforming into toxin, toxin is seen and the name "toxin" is given to the symbiote by Carnage or Venom (can't remember who) This community has given 1st appearance status to other characters for even less reasons or evidence.

This is correct but CGC hasn't put the first appearance of Toxin on them, only the first appearance of Patrcik Mulligan on #1 and that he becomes Toxin. 15 hours ago, TheSSurfer said: Toxin First Appearance Discussion I have read on a couple forums that Venom vs Carnage 3 is supposed to be Toxins first full app, however on the CGC labels, they say otherwise.

I am currently trying to find CGC 9.8 quality books of his first solo series. I have #1 in CGC 9.8 and maybe a copy of #5 that could go close if pressed and graded but have not had any luck in getting the others in a grade close to that.

All it says on the CGC label is Black Cat Appearance nothing about First Toxin App. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justifidied Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 There is never a mention of his "first appearance". I got CGC to change the notation for Venom vs Carnage from "nothing" to "Patrick Mulligan becomes Toxin". Their reasoning for not putting "first appearance" in a response to my inquires, was that Toxin is a symbiote and a spawn from Carnage, meaning that his first true appearance would be considered in the first appearance of Carnage. Which to me doesn't make sense, that would mean every symbiote on Earth couldn't hold a first appearance title since they all came from Venom. So, I fought for about a month with CGC about this before finally just excepting the notation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that there should be a first appearance notification for Toxin. Justifidied and TheSSurfer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to stop being sooooo technical with the notation and just put in "first appearance". They are characters, this is their first appearance in a comic!

Davidone Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) According to CGC, this would be the first appearance of Toxin, Carnage and Venom all in one book. Haha Edited April 22, 2017 by Davidone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSSurfer Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Yeah I agree. If Carnage and Venom have the correct appearances or comics that represent it, why not Toxin too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
