    Could be fun. I'd have loved to see MJ and Janet van Dyne interacting a long time ago. Kind of writes itself --- MJ is (or used to be) a fashion model, and Janet's classically well-known as a fashion designer who made all of her own costumes. If we go for the Renew Your Vows version where MJ runs her own fashion boutique and blog, I could even see Janet taking her on as a protégé of sorts.

    Red Sonja's apparently going to be involved in Archie crossovers for the time being, meeting Betty and Veronica!

    The Red Sonja rights and the Conan rights are different licensing agreements these days. (I know it's confusing.)

    Thanks for that tidbit of info. Somewhat disappointed, but very well.

    I'm afraid we can't. Red Sonja is not part of the Conan license, her comics are still published by Dynamite.

    She and Peter really do have a lot in common .

    What is MJ's longest lasting career? Peter has photography, but was she a model longer then she was an actress?

    MJ was a runway model, an entry-level model that was ballooned into a magazine and cover model by Michelinie and Owsley against Ron Frenz and Tom Defalco's intentions.

    And Michelinie ended MJ's career in the Jonathan Caesar story, and MJ wasn't a model for most of the 90s. She was a small TV actress and then she was a psychology student.

    She returned to becoming a model/actress after her "death" and then during the separation when she was in LA, and then she went on to become a theatre actress. Then Post-OMD, MJ went back to LA, then came back and opened a nightclub, and owning a nightclub was actually one of her longest-jobs and then she became a Stark Industries executive and PA.


    So yeah, she wasn't a model for as long as people think she was.

    Much like how Peter himself wasn't in high school, or bonded with the Venom symbiote, for as long as a lot of people think he was, but both have become iconic status quos associated with his character. Another thing, ultimately, that he and Mary Jane have in common; both of them have particular arcs or setups that were actually rather brief in the original comics, but made into character-defining (and sometimes character-limiting) status quos by both fans and later writers.

    She and Peter are equals. They have parallel lives and story arcs that follow similar arcs and trajectories.

    If you add up all the time she spent in the profession a model (but of different types and degrees of fame and success) is her longest career
