Mary Jane Watson-Parker Appreciation 2022

paul gets too much hate

The character was created to be hated.

[Jman27]

he has my support then

[dornwolf]

I mean in a year he'll probably be a wiki page note and that's it.

Things go back to status quo

Ha that’s if he actually lucky. At best he shows up on a list of most useless characters 10 years from now and everyone has flash of his character and then immediately forgets him. He’s a troll character on the readership thats it he offers nothing because he’s basically worth nothing.

[Matt Rat]

I don't believe this for a second. There is zero chance this happens.

Another leak is that a spoilers:

teased villain from Wells run appears in the issue, and that the death is 'kind of funny'

end of spoilers

It would not be the first time Slott has meddled with someone's run in a fashion like this. Franklyn Richards anyone?

Right! And MJ will hate Peter for it.

Any excuse for Slott to further along his Jeckyle/Hyde writing for MJ.

spoilers:

I can believe a villain from the Wells run appears, and even that a character has a death that is "kind of funny," but it won't be Paul. Wells and Editorial would never allow that. And Slott wouldn't undercut Wells' run like that. They were BND writers together. And the idea that Wells and Editorial would allow that to happen in a Spider-Verse event makes no sense at all.

Slott and Wells might have planned that from the beginning. If this spoiler is true, it's pretty much obvious.

[Huntsman Spider]

On a somewhat happier side note, we've made it to 200 pages of the Mary Jane Watson(-Parker) Appreciation Thread of 2022.

Turns out the spoiler isn't true, however, the legit ones are worse

spoilers:

Mayday was also infected and converted to a Poison Wasp, meaning both of MJ's high-profile daughters have been turned

[Kevinroc]

The new Spider-Verse story looks so mid.

spoilers:

I'm sure all the spiders transformed into monsters will be alright. They overplayed their hand showcasing the characters who are appearing in the Spider-Verse movies, and Mayday, as transformed right away. And yeah, I think Mayday's going to show up in a Spider-Verse movie at some point so she stands right alongside Gwen, Noir, and (already confirmed for the sequel) Punk.

Might be a minor spoiler for later, I just read on Frenz's facebook that

spoilers:

He's been told Mayday has reverted back to Spider-Girl now than Anya has switched back to Arana

what was she before?

[Frontier]

what was she before?

Spider-Woman?

Although they made a joke in those Secret Wars backups that everyone still called her Spider-Girl as a knock on on it .

I think they really expect Sony to use Mayday in a movie.

[Frontier]

I think they really expect Sony to use Mayday in a movie.

I doubt the comics writers are thinking that far ahead.

[Kevinroc]

I doubt the comics writers are thinking that far ahead.

It's all about merchandising. That's why all these characters have new names and aren't "Spider-Man" or "Spider-Woman."

Anya is Araña again so the Spider-Girl name is free. Thus Mayday goes back to it. Marvel has a "Spider-Girl" they can sell merch of.

And as we see in the leaks for the new Spider-Verse event.

spoilers:

We do see monster Mayday in a shot with monster versions of Gwen, Noir, and Punk. Gwen and Noir were in the first Spider-Verse movie and merchandise indicates Punk will be in the second. Kind of interesting company, huh?
