Yeah, it’s absolutely a tragedy that he killed himself; I wish this had all shook out in any other way than that, but acting like he wasn’t deserving of professional consequences for inappropriate...

I definitely understand the quibbles about Peter’s maturity level, but I’m mostly equating it to him feeling more relaxed and able to goof off with Miles being around, since he knows he’s with...

Oh come on.

Comics are clearly shingles in construction area metaphors. Thin and floppy

This is pretty much my take on it. Not much changes in the way I view Wells and Dead Language.

Main takeaway is I hope no crap gets flung Ziglar’s way from Marvel Higherups

Have I ever found a Spider-Man comic challenging? Maybe not. Have I read Spider-Man comics that have something actually going on under the hood? Yes. Have any of the stories in this run fit that...

It’s been a very long time, but if I’m remember right, this is part of why I couldn’t much enjoy Daniel Way’s Deadpool. A story would end with him being like “I just do not want to live anymore,”...

If I had to pick between defending these stories on their own merits or saying “Spider-Man isn’t Schindler’s List” (as if anyone was saying it was), I know what I’d pick, so I don’t know if I can...

Absolutely extraordinarily wrong statement

Man, I would feel depressed if I were a comic writer or artist and saw my work defended this way. “They’re just popcorn with no depth, and I love that about them,”
“Oh, uh t-thanks :/“

I read plenty of books I do like. Would love for this one to be one of them again because Spider-Man is one of my favorite fictional characters. Pretty bizarre to act like it’s strange to want a book...

Maybe it’s never been “high brow”, but it’s been higher brow than this by a massive margin in the past. Asking for that again is completely reasonable. Maybe it’s always been popcorn, but that...

Probably a bad sign when even people who defend this run are like “it’s fine that these have the depth of a drained kiddie pool. They’re just silly little popcorn comics with nothing beyond that to...

I genuinely cannot think of a character that is further away from hot and sexy than post OMD Peter. Big "guy who does not ****" energy from him pretty much constantly.

Has anyone pointed out that it’s hard to take a “the hero goes bad” story seriously if the hero has gotten an embarrassing ass beating in every storyline for 50 issues? Like “oh no the Spider Goblin...

Credit to Mackie. I never felt like he wasn’t trying. I can’t say that about this run. This is just absurd

There is no bottom. You think they’ve reached the bottom, then they tell the same bad story twice. There is genuinely no depths of suck this run will not plumb. Good god

Dauterman is someone I’d love to see get a go at drawing a Spidey run

I also wouldn’t mind Joystick piping back up. She was fun in Thunderbolts as well, and the Great Game or whatever it was called she was a part of is a fun idea

Well, luckily Shadow of The Green Goblin will probably scratch that itch for you soon. Maybe Spidey will even get to look marginally competent, or even, dare I wish, cool in it.

It’s an even dumber argument when you consider that a character with his same power set already exists. Quicksand

It was as good as expected. JMD really has still got it. His voice for Spidey is just perfect. Not much else to say other than that I’m very looking forward to reading next month’s issue. Almost as...

I don’t mind Spidey needing help to beat Bullseye. He’s been in like 3 fights total. Bullseye is very formidable in pretty much ever verse that he’s in. He was pretty much walking the dog on Harry,...

If you try to logic out why we should care about things that happen in this run, you’ll be asking that about every plot point eventually. We are living in a two year long amateur hour

Yeah, the only thing stopping Marvel from collecting $4 more dollars from me (and many others, I'm sure) every two weeks is that the quality of ASM is exceedingly poor. I'd be happy to give them more...

Obviously I should know better by now than to be excited when I see Spidey in a bad situation where it seems hopeless, but the first 40 years of the comic did condition me to expect that, when his...
