I think it worked out overall.
That's the only Venom comic that still interests me on more than a nostalgia/amused level. The idea of the symbiote as a corrupter of human consciousness seems to be one that is oddly unexplored in Marvel comics for the sake of cheap panels of tongue, teeth, and drool. I've still to read more than a few issues of that run though.
