If he were to follow everybody else’s lead and introduce himself, Eddie would first have to leave his little corner behind. That was no problem at all, for he was neither frightened nor intimidated by any of them. Sure, there were some who seemed powerful, dangerous, but Eddie could be respectful and not mess with them, and in return, they would hopefully leave him be.
He’d listened to those who went before him from his spot against the wall, and after Milton Fine, or Brainiac (yes, Eddie thought that the second name sounded better) was finished speaking, he pushed himself from the wall and went to join the others like an obedient little puppy.
“My name is Edward Brock Jr. I work for Mr. Luthor. You can call me Eddie, although I think the media prefers ‘Venom’. And for the record, they came up with that, not me." But he still liked it just fine. It was fitting.
