Is there any way Wells can turn the negative fan reception around?

death has no meaning anymore in comics. especially spiderman comics don't forget he die like 7 times in Spencer run

Clearly the hero we all need.

Just coming here to say if you think the reaction here is negative to Wells’s run, you ain’t seen TikTok LOL

Look, all I want at this point are Peter x MJ, Hellion, a good Black Cat, Mysterio getting some love, and maybe Paper Doll. Having these elements won't fix all the problems, but I'd least be content. After being jerked around on Peter/MJ for so long, just having them together would be a relief. I don't want perfection. I could handle a mediocre run, so long as the characters I like are eating good.

Paper Doll hive, we rise.

She's right there, guys! Even Big Wheel gets more on-page shine lmao

That was Spencer run except the paper doll part

Honestly, yeah. I didn't care for the run outside of the beginning, a few stories and all the Mysterio stuff. But I was content enough to keep coming back... until the Kindred stuff started ramping up, at least. That killed the book's momentum.

From a narrative point of view I don't think it counts as a death if the villain brings him straight back to life in the same issue.

Wells needs to drop this mystery nonsense but apart from the Hellfire Gala tie-in, Judgement Day crap and crying to Osborn for help against Vulture I, Wells has been putting out good work.

So just the Tombstone arc.. got it

[Triniking1234]

The Hobgoblin arc worked but it's being followed up in Gold Goblin instead. Also I liked #900.

you tend to find negative things more than positivity anyway in this world

That's what I'm generally curious about, Wells fans say he puts out good work, but never elaborate. It's as if they just say "Well I enjoyed this and that" to be contrarian and to be kind to him because of what an incredible job he did on Hellions, but Hellions is a side book that required minimal effort and frankly all Krakoan era X-Books aren't worth much anyway.

I mean, all the stuff you listed that didn't work is literally a good 60% of his run. You might as well be agreeing with us.

I’ve praised Gold Goblin - which is awesome so far - for example, right here on this message board (which I, for one, do not confuse with real life. Sorry). But then I focus on contributing posts about the comics, not ad hominem attacks. You might want to try the same sometime.

I don't want to see anything on TikTok.

It’s where Gen Z - y’know, those mythical young new readers Marvel is so desperate to chase - tends to hang, if they hang on public-facing social media at all. So as such, it’s instructive, especially since the topic of the thread is “can the negative reception be turned around.”

I guess you liked Beyond? The hatchet job on Ben is in my opinion the worst aspect of the Wells run.
