"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
This reminds me of Scott Snyder being forced to write Harley as a villain during Death of the Family over in the Bat Books

Because they basically want to craft the most forced story imaginable that relies on a combination of nostalgia that characters have long grown past and just plain writing characters OOC. Hell, they even made the same reference with Ben’s nightmare that they did with Maddie back in the day.

None, he should be searching for ways to save Dylan from his fate by well...the smartest course of action would be to draw the attention of his opposite, The Enigma Force, or maybe find Immortus to uncover the secrets of altering one's fate like Kang once did by splitting the two of them into two separate unique beings.

Shockingly thought this was fine for the most part.
Well, the Venom stuff is stupid and regressive, even with the explainer, but not the character assassination I was expecting and fearing based on these comments

I don't see how that's any different. Eddie is now a being of living darkness, the same darkness that Knull was. The Enigma Force is the light that comes to banish that darkness away when it grows too powerful. And besides, if it isn't his opposite then who is going to take The Enigma Force's place?

Eddy isn't made of or born from primordial darkness, nor is there any indication he's done anymore than inherited control of the symbioses from it after being proclaimed KiB. His title and powers all stem from the Klyntar and their hive. As for the Enigma Force, why does anything need to take its place?
It feels to me like you're making a lot of assumptions that aren't textually supported yet. Not impossible but I don't see anything suggesting that Eddy and the Enigma Force are now opposites.
