Spider-Man: The Lost Hunt

[Huntsman Spider]

No other mascot of a company gets treated this badly

In terms of superheroes, probably not.

Talking about Traveller before... with him returning to go after mutants now... why even bother? Why not just go hoe and make sweet, sweet Hippie sex with Chakra? *Shrugs*

As for The Lost Hunt, looking forward to it.

Yeah, that would have been nice.

I may like to see a alternate universe we're both Peter and MJ with a happy family and Ben Reilly still the original.

And we will get another World War Hulk, inevitably.

With how much Planet Hulk gets rehashed (From what I heard, Amadeus got it, She-Hulk got it, and then Cates was doing another version of it), it's surprising WWH isn't rehashed too lol

Ever heard of Sonic?

Hmm, sadly.

With Sonic Frontier coming around and looking really bland, I doubt Sonic will make a comeback anytime soon too lol.

This looks and sounds like it's going to be brutal.

Very interesting comment from DeMatties on his blog about the series...he's treating it as it's own reality and as far as he's concerned, Peter and MJ get their happy ending at the end of it.

The only way to write a story like this is to treat it as the only reality. Meaning—whatever happened, continuity-wise, in later stories, can't exist in my head while I'm writing it. Pete and MJ are married, they're going to have a baby, and, as far as I'm concerned, they'll live happily ever after, too!

I haven't quoted this, but he admits in another post on the same blog that it can be considered as taking place in the MC2 universe or possibly something similar

I guess that retroactively means the Ben Reilly miniseries belongs to this universe too

Supermans had a rough ride. He doesn’t even get to bank out movies or games to bolster him. Mind you DC has at least turned it around comics wise I think.

Not necessarily. The BR mini was its own thing, and there’s nothing in there that excludes it from taking place in normal 616 continuity (sure, there’s a few very minor continuity errors like Ben’s inner monologue implying that the events of ‘Redemption’ taking place a lot earlier… but nothing that major).

I’d also be surprised if the Spidercide stuff isn’t followed up on one day.

DeMatties has been pretty adamant Lost Hunt runs parallel to the BR series. No idea why he's specific about that unless he plans something for the future, but he also said it depends on getting another phone call to do more Ben.

Ultimately it isn’t up to him whether it takes place in continuity but whether future writers pick up any threads or subplots from the mini. Alan Moore also intended ‘Killing Joke’ to be out of continuity (I think DC mandated that Bats couldn’t explicitly be shown killing Joker at the end because they wanted it in continuity). Again I see nothing major that excludes the BR mini from taking place in 616, so in my own head-canon it does. Fwiw, it can take place in multiple continuities too… so it could take place in 616 and also take place in whatever continuity ‘Lost Hunt’ takes place in.

It's weird, given their rivalry, that Grant Morrison respects KJ so much that in his headcanon the ending is Batman killing The Joker (with him getting better obviously)

uh.. so is this, uh, the "original" Kraven? I've lost track with the clones, resurrections, and so forth.
