    Default Comicbook.com ranks the top ten Spider-Man supporting characters

    Comicbook.com had a list of the top ten Spider-Man supporting characters.

    http://comicbook.com/comics/2018/03/...acters-ranked/

    I think they got the top ones right. And in the right order.

    There are some interesting omissions, although these might be characters who are also sometimes antagonists.
    Sincerely,

    I pretty much agree with the top 7, though I think the glaring omissions are probably Harry and Felicia (if you count her as a supporting character).

    And dang, I forgot Max's husband was pretty good looking .

    Mostly agree, though I feel like Ben Urich was ranked too high. I also think Harry should have made it in somewhere. And Aunt May/Mary Jane should have been higher than JJJ IMO.

    Ben Urich, Anna and Max Modell don't belong on this list, lol. Thats just goofy. And all ahead of Uncle Ben, no Harry, no Felicia, no Eddie Brock, and so on. A blind monkey with ticks and a hundred mice dancing on its head would make better choices.

    I enjoy Ben and Peter's dynamic but I definitely think there should be characters above him when it comes to Spidey supporting characters.

    Ben Urich's a great supporting character. He's a great Daredevil supporting character. His role in the Spider-Man comics is rather limited, mainly to being a veteran Bugle reporter.

    Bendis did some interesting stuff with him in Spidey but that was in other character' titles (Daredevil and the Pulse.)

    Max Modell and Ana Maria Marconi are on this, while Harry, Gwen and Felicia aren’t? What Slott fanboy compiled this list?

    EDIT: referring to the top list, not the more recent one.

    I would not have had Ben on the list at all. I mean how could Gwen not make the list? She was Peter's first love. I mean if you dont count Better. Not that he and Better really had much going on. And to put Ben above Betty. Come on.

    Some people have different opinions. Don't see anything wrong about that.
