Because I guess Zeb Wells, Nick Lowe, and the rest of Marvel's Spider-Man office didn't make it clear they were ripping off the Batman Who Laughs with the Spider Who Gobbles the last time around. :p

BTW, crazy town banana pants theory that will likely be proven wrong...what with Norman Osborn becoming the Green Goblin again is just a red herring and the "new Green Goblin" (the one that supposed...

So let me get this straight...Anna Watson once conspired with May Parker to set-up Anna's niece, MJ, and May's nephew, Peter. Rather successfully, I might add. And now, Anna is conspiring to set up...

I'm surprised no one in the thread has yet suggested that this "new Goblin" is Gwen Stacy from a parallel Earth. After all, we know she exists thanks to one of the stories from the Web of Spider-Man...

I thought Spectacular Spider-Men #1 was okay, but not outstanding. Definitely better than what we're currently getting over in Amazing Spider-Man. I also think that the comic feels like a vehicle for...

You know, I find it ironic that Mary Jane narrates about how much she is in control of her own life, that she is where she is because of the choices she made. And yet her entire power set is based...

Those that say that, like the original Ultimate Spider-Man, the new Ultimate Spider-Man is taking it's time on the origin for the sake of establishing character and world building? I definitely...

And this preview (aside from being a mediocre tie-in to a mediocre story) underscores why Marvel did this.

1. As long as Mary Jane is a regular supporting character in Amazing Spider-Man, the...

And to think, "Gang War" started out somewhat promising. But now, with this one preview, it's as if as though Wells is telling his readers, "Oh ho ho! You thought bringing Kingpin into the mix was...

But...that's kind of the point. Because in this case, there were folks dismissing what this particular retailer said out of hand because Ethan Van Sciver and other Comicgaters were talking this guy...

Hence why "consider the source," or variations of that phrase, fall under the "genetic fallacy." Because they're being critical of the person who made the argument without actually addressing the...

Wait a minute...am I supposed to understand that Peter, back in Clone Conspiracy #5, was actually wrong when we said this to Doc Ock?!

Either that, or he was being optimistically naive....

SPIDER-MAN: "His face...why didn't I notice it before?"
ME: "Probably because the Collections Agent was such a nothingburger of a subplot virtually everyone wouldn't even know who he was, and...

Just how desperate are the Spider-Man offices in an attempt to create "drama" between Peter and Miles by bringing up Spidey's missing six months that kicked off Wells' mediocre run? Like was already...

Regarding this most recent news. First, I'm sooooo glad it not going to be a Peter Parker who divorced from Liz Allen like I assumed. Second, the idea that Peter Parker is, presumably, bitten by the...

Absolutely, but it totally fits with Marvel's current handling of MJ since the start of Zeb Wells' run on Amazing Spider-Man. They are fully aware of just how popular MJ is among Spider-Man fandom,...

Not quite. Like it or not, Miles Morales is a legacy character. Meaning that him being Spider-Man rests entirely upon Peter Parker being Spider-Man first and well established as such. And that's not...

If the Ultimate Spider-Man is going to be successful, then it has to be Peter Parker. Regardless of Miles Morales, Miquel O'Hara, Ben Reilly and all the other Spider characters over the years, Peter...

Hmm...so instead of Spider-Man being a metaphor for adolescence into adulthood, it's a metaphor for a mid-life crisis. Quite a unique interpretation, I must say. And if it's also depicting what Peter...

"I'm a big girl, Peter. Nobody took me anywhere." Says the woman who was kidnapped and then trapped in a post-apocalyptic wasteland for four years. Also, the reason she "choose" Paul is because she...

Yeah, if the goal is for readers to actually like Paul despite the fact that's he's in a relationship with Spider-Man's long-time and most recognizable love interest, then the folks at Marvel are...

First Stan, then Ditko, and now Romita. Strange that all of Spider-Man's "fathers" are gone. And yes, even though Romita didn't create Spider-Man, there's no question that he had a hand in making the...

MARY JANE: "Don't you see, Peter? Paul may have been duped into helping his dad end the world and murdered him for it, but I could see he felt really, really bad about it. Just like you feel really,...

Some potential silver lining from all this? This should logically send Paul on the path to becoming a super villain. Aside from the fact that he's the "good son" of another super villain who feels...

I suppose the "purpose" was so that MJ and Paul could become so emotionally attached to them--helped by the fact that they look like younger versions of themselves which Rabin actually points...
