    were you going to read those other characters series had they come out?

    Him, I wonder if this is the beginning of the push to get Miles out the paint of the Spider-Man mythos? Is this the comics culture/writers snap back at the increased energy Miles is generating?

    Eh, probably sitting this one out. Good for Bailey fans, and the younger spidey-fans in general

    I don't think there's more scheming involved here than "Best-selling title has a spin-off" tbh

    I mean, is anyone really surprised? Both Cindy and Gwen quickly got ongoings after their introductions and the Edge of Spider-Verse issue last week was essentially an issue 0 that can spin out into a series, presenting us with a hook for said solo.

    I'm not sure how Kamala is relevant here? Yes, Doreen and Kamala were shown to be friends in the Marvel Rising comics and Doreen became a Champions reservist (thus was involved in Outlawed) but that has no relevance to Doreen appearing in Spider-Boy #1.

    Slott is just trying to tie back to his mid 00's writings at this point

    Squirrel Girl is friends with everybody! It's kind of her whole thing.

    Anyway, I was pretty much sold on this as soon as they mentioned "Madame Monstrosity", thanks.

    So is this basically like Silk where they look at pre-order numbers and use that to justify giving a character a book?

    Spider Punk..Yes, Yes!
    Spyder-byte...Yes
    A good Spider-Nior book...Yes
    These offer opportunities for very conceptually different types of stories. Spider-boy is going to squeeze In between Miles and Peter stories....?? Why??

    Gotta make sure that is on my do NOT buy list. Probably getting rid of adjectiveless as well.
    All I wanted was to be unconditionally loved while never having to work on my flaws. Is that so much to ask?

    I would have given them a try, yes. I imagine most people would give them a try before Spider-Boy. We just had a critically acclaimed movie where they were all praised.

    I doubt that. And they're not cancelling Miles' book.

    I mean, Noir and Punk just had minis not that long ago and Marvel doesn’t seem to interested in long term focus of spiders outside of 616 unless it’s Gwen and even she’s in 616 half the time.
