Things you were surprised Marvel allowed

[Frontier]

That one is less surprising since Slott had already gotten backlash over a scene from much earlier in his Spider-Man run where Chameleon supposedly slept with Peter's roommate while disguised as him. When people pointed out that was rape, Slott tried to backtrack and say they didn't have sex and only made out (which is still creepy). So he and editorial were probably aware of the **** storm that would've rained down had he written Otto to have sex with Mary Jane while masquerading as Peter.

Not that it stopped them from pulling a similar situation with SpOck and Anna Maria Marconi.

Fred Van Lente wrote that arc, not Dan Slott.

Yeah, but also Slott just recently had Reed, Sue and the kids making fun of Johnny for the Lyja situation, which was also rape. But since the victim was a man, he probably thought it was funny.

While it doesn’t justify it, it can be hard to think about or understand the implications of fantastical elements. That’s why the mutant debate has gone on so long.

You'll love sexy Aunt May

Marisa is pretty hot.

Secret Wars 8. No not the Black Costume but having Spider-Man demolish Titania.
Secret Wars 7. when the Wrecking Crew and Titania almost killed She-Hulk

Damn it, you're right

The Comics Code-approved '90s issue of Daredevil that casually mentions "teledildonics".

Marvel has a problem with treating female rapists as a joke or no big deal. See Moondragon being allowed to remain a hero or Ewing attempting to make Lorelei, a serial date-rapist, into a hero during his Loki run.

Also wanna add the undoing of Scarlett Witch and Quicksilver being Magneto's offspring and Dum Dum Dugan being a Life Model Android this whole time.

Yeah, a gang-beating like that . . . I wasn't expecting that when I first read that issue as a kid. As for Spider-Man demolishing Titania . . . superior speed, skill, and experience beats brute force and overconfidence (almost) every time.

I would also bring up how Emma Frost's affair with Cyclops truly started, with him going to her for therapy. Looking back on it in that respect . . .

At least Al Ewing undid that one in his New Avengers.

[AtheistInRed]

I would say Gwenpool.

Oh oh! Pepper taking advantage of Tony Stark while in the process of him deleting his brain.

It's Not only a Marvel Problem (e. g. Dick Grayson) but personally that's why I can't stand characters as Moondragon, Lorelei or Amora, (damn Amora even drugged her own sister and let her being raped) the last ones not only are serial rapist but sometimes their rappe attemps are portayed as "romantic", "tragic" or even "heroic"

I had a brief argument in the Scott Summers appreciation thread about why that affair was less "Damn Scott, can't be faithful" and more "Emma should lost her license for abusing a mental scarred patient who wanted marriage counselor".

[BitParallel]

Scott wasn’t paying her, so she wasn’t his official therapist.
