Them doing other stuff, that's fine, I for example like the idea of Anya being more involved with the magic side of Spider-related stuff (She's the character most connected with it after all), I just don't like the idea of killing them off.
Ultimate being destroyed is consistent now right? 'Cause I remember hearing Miles' comic mentioned/showed that Ultimate was fine around the same time Venom was showing it destroyed.
I mean, Spidey only used a team to "defeat" Morlum once, the other times it was a solo battle.
Morlum is too powerful to show up with any sort of frequency, but at least it can be fun to see what Spidey comes up with to defeat him, the first battle and fourth battles in particular were nice since they used logical weaknesses.
Oh yeah, Morlum family does suck lol.
Sandman, Hydro Man, Electro, Rhino are specifically above Spidey, with 3 of them being extra dumb and Sandman being, less dumb lol.
If Mysterio ever started to try to fuck over Spidey like he did with Daredevil in Guardian Devil and with Wolverine in Old Man Logan, he could be a lot more threatening too.
While the Totem stuff didn't expand for the other characters, Ezekiel was mentioning that super-heroes in general have a "theme" on the people they fight, which's why he mentions what other heroes fight as examples, and Morlum was never said to cheapen out the villains, if anything, Ezekiel was saying that Peter cheapens them since the rogues are "pretenders" and Peter is the "real deal", and they go after him because they subconsciously realize it lol.
And yes, that's still ridiculous lol.
One annoying thing about Morlum and Ezekiel in JMS' run is the annoying wanking they both got, Ezekiel's was less bad, but his own introduction had Peter saying he reminds Peter of uncle Ben, those are really big shoes to fill (And it's kinda funny Ezekiel likes to go barefoot
), while Morlum had both Spidey say that he's the first villain who really pissed him off (Ridiculous claim when Spidey had to deal with the likes of Green Goblin and Jackal, who mentally tortured him very brutally), and that he hits harder than the Hulk... Yeah...
