    Yes. He invented his gauntlets. That doesn't get talked about enough.

    That would be better than it not going anywhere, yes.

    But Editorial made it clear to us several times in the past 16 years that nothing will go anywhere. The most recent example of that is the...

    I think that's just what you inevitably get when the writer is self-conscious about making him "young" and isn't allowed to make him grow.

    Whether or not it was planned because of a reboot, I...

    If sales drop but the quality stays the same a few issues from now, there would likely be a reason for that (e.g. economy getting even worse and people having even less money).

    With a book like...

    It's a question of whether or not it will have a meaningful drop, though. Yes, #1's usually sell the best with new relaunches, but so far there is no evidence of a meaningful drop between USM #1 and...

    No reason to think sales would drop as long as the quality stays good (especially if ASM continues to dissapoint a huge portion of fans), but I have no problem making the same point 6 or 7 issues...

    My argument is that it will boost long-term sales as long as the comics continue to stay good after they undo OMD.

    Also, action speaks louder than words. I don't think any argument anyone makes...

    Quesada and those before him and now retired.



    It's been talked about ad nauseum, but there is no evidence of younger readers being any more pro-OMD or even neutral on OMD. The hate for it...

    If he isn't more quippy and quirky a few issues from now, then sure. I don't think we can make that call yet, though.

    The marriage isn't the only factor USM is doing well, but it's undeniably one of the factors. Not only was it primarily marketed on the marriage and Peter's family, but Hickman's previous (G.O.D.S.)...

    Yes, but more fans seem to be buying USM than ASM based on everything we heard from retailers. That suggests Marvel is leaving money on the table with ASM.



    I mean, if that's what they think,...

    I think that's because he is just starting out, though.

    Peter in AF#15 before he became Spider-Man was just as subdued.

    I kinda agree with Quesada a divorce would have been worse, but I think it also depends on your perspective.

    It would have been worse for Peter and MJ's relationship because, like Quesada said, it...

    He kinda does to me.

    What I mean is that he doesn't feel old in a bad way. He is like a lot of people I know right now in their mid 30's.



    Bingo.

    They could be collecting even more money if ASM undoes OMD (or at least if they get Peter and MJ back together).

    It's not like Hickman's USM and Pre-OMD ASM are interchangeable. They're still two...

    "The demand for certainty is one which is natural to man, but is nevertheless an intellectual vice." -Bertrand Russell

    We don't need certainty. We just need to assess beyond reasonable doubt.

    I don't think the marriage is the only factor USM is selling well, but it's definitely one of the main factors. Let's remember that Hickman's previous title (G.O.D.S.) didn't perform anywhere near as...

    Mr. Slott, I'm not sure I buy that analogy. The appeal of Superior (by your own admission as well) was similar to that of Knightfall and Kraven's Last Hunt - in the sense that the audience wants to...

    Ironically, Spencer and Hickman's Peters feel way younger than Slott/Wells'. The former two actually bothered to portray him as Millennial coded - a guy in his late 20's and mid 30's (respectively)...

    I'd say there have been plenty of other complaints about Wells at this point.

    I would define Gwen having no chance (short of a miracle) at this point of replacing MJ to count as a complete and successful replacement. It's complete in the sense there's no going back.

    Also, I...

    On Disney+? I think it was way higher.

    At one point X-Men TAS was the most viewed show on Disney+.

    I think the problem with "Peter in the chair" in 616 is that it's essentially the same argument OMD is making, just with a different perspective. If 616 Peter retires between 30-40, you're still...
