Certainly doing a very fine job cleaning up Slott's atrocious mess. Spencer clearly understands the character much more than his predecessor and shows reverence for what's come before in the...

See, here I have some reservations. Does everyone's own personal beliefs count or are there some inalienable ground rules to a shared universe?

And it's funny you mention the 616 universe. Last I...

I think you and I have two very different interpretations of both the Defalco-penned Spider-Verse story and what a constitutes both an official company view and what is and isn't canon.

I'm saying a publisher is a business that doesn't have any viewpoint on it's own, merely a collection of policies and procedures (in addition to the laws they must follow) and that any view it could...

Genuinely do not take your meaning from this. You may need to clarify. Are you saying you don't think Defalco was suggesting there are alternate Mayday's, that the character in Spider-Verse wasn't...

I was responding to your statement that you 'stick with the publishers view by default'. My point was that the publisher doesn't have a single viewpoint to adhere to, it has multiple, a contradiction...

What do you mean?

Seeing a character's entire published history being undermined and eroded for a hollow crossover event and being told 'hey, there's an alternate reality version of that character out there somewhere...

How exactly does the publisher have a view? They are comprised of so many separate people with differing opinions and many of those opinions are at odds and even contradictory. Even the published...

I think any date that anchors the MC2 to a specific year in time is a topical reference because inevitably, with the passage of time the character would age exponentially. Even then-future years like...

Oh, hey! I have also conceived ways to negate the impact of Spider-Verse on May 'Mayday' Parker. Not sure how specific Daily Bugle newspaper dates seen in the original MC2 canon helps our cause, but...

Could you please explain what you mean by decanonising Spider-Verse, because you have my fully attention.

Or a proper moment between 616 Peter and his presumed deceased daughter from an alternate world, or Ben Reilly and Peter having a heart to heart as brothers. Actually, there was a lot of squandered...

I guess because they are both people who have done some seriously bad things and would understand one another?

This is something people have been perpetuating online for a while now. It's based on a single panel of a single issue having a newspaper which featured the year 2017 and another issue showing 1996....

The MC2 was written with the previous generation of Marvel characters having being active approximately 15 years in the past, with the MC2 heroes being set in the present on a floating timeline just...

Interesting that you mention Anya, because despite her appearing after the divergence point she also exists in the MC2. In fact, so do other characters such as Maria Hill because there is nothing to...

Just off the top of my head, the MC2 gave us a bi-sexual Felicia Hardy, redeemed Kaine, turned Galactus into a force for good in the universe and brought the original Hobgoblin back and made him a...

How does that make it outdated? It's a divergent timeline. If anything, it informed both Young Avengers and the recent Ant-Man series re: Cassie. The MC2 has also done many things the 616 only did...

It would be nice to include the whole run and other related materials ('The Dance' for instance) but at least most of the Amazing run etc are already available in trade paperbacks. As for how many...

I really enjoyed the Complete Collection Vol. 1. The extras really made it worth it too. I hope they continue to put out the series in this format until it's all collected.

Looking forward to receiving my copy. Hope this does well because I really need the entire Spider-Girl series in trade paperback form on my bookshelf.

I'm of two minds on this series. On the one, I'm excited to see Mayday prominently featured again. On the other, Mayday is only returning in a sequel to Spider-Verse, the single most damaging story...

Me too. If this is going to double down on the crappy direction from Spider-Verse, I'm not interested.
