    I think the first two episodes of X-men 97 have a bit more maturity to them than X-Men TAS, and they're adapting source material that rarely makes it to adaptations (because all of the "classics"...

    5th printing!!! Holy crap

    Those scenes with May are so adorable! Can't wait! :o

    I thought Liz was the daughter of a wealthy hotel owner.

    It seems like they do not know yet, but I'm hoping Hickman doesn't drag that out for too long.
  4. I get that her intelligence has been flanderized...

    I get that her intelligence has been flanderized in other media, but 616 Gwen was explicitly a science major. I find it a bit more likely that she would choose to work for a science corporation. I...

    Could also be how MJ met Harry before.

    Ouch. Tbh, I always thought of Gwen and Liz as stand-ins for one another in 616 as the pretty and popular uptown blonde. When one exited, the other one entered. So that tracks.

    But also Gwen had...

    We still don't know what MJ's business is, right? Wondering if she's a designer and the connection is that Gwen is a former or current client of MJ's.

    Brilliant! The two people that blamed Spidey for their father's demise essentially teamed up in this universe. This is the twist that I was hoping Hickman would take. Really looking forward to this...

    Though divorce may have been more palatable from a continuity standpoint, it also would have brought more finality to the relationship. And I don't think Quesada wanted to permanently axe Peter and...

    To be fair, those were 616 titles. And "death of main Spider-man" is an event that's likely to draw interest and speculation as opposed to an ongoing status quo. But by its very nature, it's pretty...

    Spider-man: Red Stunning work

    Spider-man: Red

    Stunning work

    I prefer it over hulk Goblin of the original Ultimate, but I'm hoping it's just a proto suit that's meant to not look overtly Gobliny.
  13. Well they were arguing how Ultimate's success...

    Well they were arguing how Ultimate's success might influence the future of Spider-man's main ongoing, which is still an influential corner of the franchise.

    IMO likely not anything in the...

    And when Norman was revived, MJ was Peter's wife.

    I think Gwen could have been revived for BND. And though I'm opposed to these types of revivals, I think it would have been a far more...

    We'll see. After a certain point, they're going to be incentivized to shake things up again. No status quo today seems capable of holding sales up long term. It's those status quo changes, reboots,...

    I don't think it was a direct result, but I do think RYV opened the door for Peter and MJ getting back together as a couple in 616 after OMD. Spencer likely pitched it, but if RYV flopped, I doubt...
  17. The make-ups and break-ups of Peter and Mary Jane...

    The make-ups and break-ups of Peter and Mary Jane have been a big draw for ASM since at least OMD (Arguably before when the couple was reunited in the JMS run) even when it's not overtly marketed. I...

    They feel obligated to include multiple Spider-people in everything nowadays post Spider-verse. Including the few cartoons where Peter has actually been younger.

    I think eventually the whole...

    I think this shows that adult/married Spidey is still a viable potrayal of the character, and I think we'll get more adaptations and spin-offs with an adult and/or married Peter Parker in the coming...

    I think some of it probably came down to the artwork. Designing attractive heroines really wasn't one of Ditko's strengths. The Romita girls would have seemed far more exciting to a young audience.

    I agree. To be clear, I'm not arguing against a retcon. Just that current editorial treats continuity like a vague suggestion and a marketing tool as opposed to a writer's Bible. The whole thing has...

    Don't you know she was 24ish when she left? So she's only 28ish now. :p

    (I think Spencer's run said Peter was 25 despite being established as older in previous runs.)

    They'll likely come up with a dumb retcon eventually. (But they've fudged the characters' ages so many times that the age thing is probably the least of their worries.)

    I don't think it's a response to backlash either. I think it's a result of Wells admittedly not having much of a plan in place for the characters apart from a vague set-up, and also editorial wanting...

    The fashions from the early 60s definitely would make Betty seem more mature to a modern audience. Liz, who was canonically Peter's age, really didn't look any younger than Betty.
