Well, they are that. But they're not only that. (The ontology of fictional characters is no doubt a complicated branch of philosophy in which I 'm inclined to think correct answers all start out...

Sins Past is fundamentally misconceived; but it's well executed by someone who cares about the characters.

You talk as if you could be truly invested in more than one love interest at a time, as if wanting to see Peter rotate between MJ, Felicia, and Carlie, and other new love interests every two to three...

I'm sure there are a lot of creators who have looked at USM and have ideas of what they could do that would get positive fan reaction. The question is whether editorial will ok their ideas.

As of this post, nobody has answered Spider-man even as a troll. Is this a record for polls on the internet?

There has been more than one variant AMS cover in the past couple of years with Gwen, MJ, and Felicia depicted together all scantily clad. In that sense, Felicia is iconic among people who apparently...

MJ is always more herself when part of Peter/MJ.
Felicia is always less herself when part of Peter/Felicia (apart from the first run where Felicia is dating Peter where the point is that Felicia...

Going by Amazing Fantasy 15, Peter's class is not attending it: Peter has to invite other members of his class to come with him and they turn him down.

I suspect it will be quietly forgotten about, in the way that the X-Men who were on the team during Fall of the Mutants - including Storm, Wolverine, Colossus, Rogue, Dazzler, and Havok - shouldn't...

It does, but in doing so it arguably implies that the 616 continuity doesn't. (I don't buy it for a second. Mayday is out there dammit.)

I can see Mystique if I squint. Jed Mackay had several team-ups in his Black Cat series, although most of them revolved around Felicia trying to rob the other one. If you're going to team Felicia up...

The intent was to leave open the possibility (for fans to have as headcanon) that the baby was still alive and had been kidnapped.

I agree with all of that. The problem is that MJ did not kick Paul to the curb at the first opportunity.
And, yes, the optics are terrible, but the Spider-Office is behaving as if they're all fine,...

Yes to all of this. I think the villain vibes from Gwen are to some extent the fact that powerful women in corporate culture are often portrayed in popular culture as villains, combined with the fact...

It hasn't been written as Peter's choice. MJ has met someone new and moved on - which is final unless Wells or the next writer decides that she doesn't know her own mind or else implements comic book...

It could just be a realism beat: eight-year olds don't like relatively strange people coming into their house. Especially if they're distracting the fun grandparent figure from focussing on them.

MJ has had a line asking Peter if he's been working out. But otherwise, yes, it's a lot better if MJ knows and Peter knows she knows.
I don't know about Harry losing Gwen. On the one hand, Gwen...

The Spider-man stuff has felt like Spider-man stuff, if Spider-man were just a beginner dealing with villains who've been doing this stuff their whole lives.

I normally think that giving Peter secret agent parents was a misstep; but at times like this I actually think that the secret agent parents explain something about Peter's psychology, namely that he...

I think Liz and Gwen come with different baggage, and Gwen's baggage may be easier to work with.

What do I need heroes for? I've got you.

If that lines's not teasing the possibility that she knows, I'm not sure what it's doing.

Granted. Still, Peter and Ben's conversation in issue one implies that Peter's more concerned about Ben's loss than about his own. Perhaps they're as close as MJ and Aunt Anna in Earth 616, (when the...

It's also a version of Spider-man where Peter wasn't actually that close to Aunt May.

Of course they were important enough to be given names. They were so important they were given names more than once.

(She didn't start out as an Avenger: she wasn't an Avenger until after Secret Wars IIRC.) Tony and Carol and the Inhumans all had their own problems to deal with (and Tony and the Inhuman Royal...
