    I honestly hoped that the good will from this movie might finally allow those who don’t like Holland to thaw a little. But it seems not. I really don’t understand it though. Very clearly this movie...

    Ultimately, this doesn’t matter. People die. That isn’t the point of the dilemma that Peter is faced with.

    While nominally he is told that they all die at the hands of Spider-Man, we know this...

    Glorious and unapologetically silly movie. The number of tongue in cheek references to the bad decisions of the past were surprising and welcome. I don’t really want a superhero movie to take itself...

    Thinking about the trailer and what it suggests about the story, I suspect the arrival of Doc Ock may not actually be part of the multiversal storyline, except in theme.

    I know that may seem weird...

    It is interesting that this seems to be at the heart of most of the heated debates over portrayal but whenever we point this out nobody wants to address it. It is as if the wound is too sore to touch...

    I urge you to take a step back and look at what is really happening between Sony and Marvel/Disney. An unprecedented cooperation between two large companies in their mutual interests.

    The way I see it, these things don't happen on paper. That is the legal stuff not day-to-day reality.

    If one thing is going to make me post a comment after months of absence it is a MCU/Sony trailer for a new Spider-Man movie.

    So, what does this trailer tell us that we didn’t know already? It...

    This is a circular argument. The writers and editors have already put this thought in. Worrying about what they should or shouldn’t be thinking is often an exercise in mind reading.

    Personally, I suspect the hard line taken on whether she is a mutant taken by Hickman is part of a long play to re-establish her as a mutant.

    I am not convinced it is still going on. There has always been a rivalry based on the type of books people enjoy. The two franchises are aimed at different tastes. Indeed you could add Fantastic Four...

    Just a flying visit, but wanted to say how much I have been loving this book. It has such depth. A book about magic that actually understands what magic should be. Totally engrossing.
