Spectacular Spider-Men is coming this March

[a moment closer]

I love how with each new announcement ASM feels less and less like a main book.

It's crazy! I just realized that I'm buying every Spider-Man book except for ASM. That's a first. And there are like ten or so books now!

First Ultimate Spider-Man by Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checcheto, now Spectacular Spider-Men by Greg Weisman and Humberto Ramos.

Finally, some good fucking food.

I started this feast with Miles, Venom, and Carnage while waiting for ASM to serve something better. Then said yes to everything Slott served up recently. Now adding Hickman, Chechetto, Weisman, and Ramos to the chef's table is almost too much!

This looks great. I'm glad to see Miles getting a second book, and I think it'll be nice seeing the differences between Peter and Miles vs Peter and Bailey. It's really a great time to be a Spider-family fan . . .

Truly, and yet I could still think of a few things that would make me lose my **** if they happened right now. I would love an ongoing with Anya, Kaine, Hummingbird, 1610 Jessica Drew, RYV's Spiderling, Mayday, Miguel, and Flash.

If DREAMS are coming true! I better put mine out there.

Which obscure characters will Weisman bring back this go-around?

Marcy Kane. (Did Peter ever find out she was actually an alien? )

Time for Deb Whitman to make her long-awaited* return!

*Not sure by whom, but it's been awhile, someone has to have been waiting for it

[Hypestyle]

Peter can help Miles craft some new gadgets for himself and complimentary gadgets they both can use together.

Jackal has turned from Cloning and is now into drinking several million liters of Gamma-irradiated Mountain Dew.

Well, there's only so much you can keep beating the clone horse .

I know Weisman introduced Kong in his Starbrand and Nightmask run.

Maybe he'll bring in some more Untold Tales characters.

Peter can help Miles craft some new gadgets for himself and complimentary gadgets they both can use together.

I dunno if Miles needs gadgets, he has a bunch of electricity constructs now.

I'm genuinely surprised we never got a Peter/Miles ongoing until now. We've gotten occasional team-ups and stuff like Spider-Men, but this seems like an obvious idea.

Greg Weisman's going to be busy between all the Gargoyles comics he's doing and now this. I just think it's cool that Marvel is finally acknowledging The Spectacular Spider-Man like this. Yeah, Weisman got to write a short Flash Thompson story, but that feels pretty small compared to an ongoing. And I admittedly haven't consumed as many Spider-Man comics as before, so I haven't gotten fatigued by Humberto Ramos.

I guess no Jackpot series

It's a one-shot now and is coming out in January.

[StickMin]

Weisman is writing this?
I suppose I should start to expect nonsensical time skips, off screen character development, cast bloat and villains who never actually face any setbacks.

[exile001]

I saw this last night and my first thought was "IT'S ABOUT FUCKING TIME!".

Marvel should have launched this the second Secret Wars brought Miles into 616. I will really look forward to this.

[Kurolegacy]

So I guess Marvel is just pulling a Mysterio and Scorpion and just ignoring that Jackel was last seen in a completely different universe and that he’s back without any explanation (though I suppose it could also just be handwaved as being one of Warren’s clones).

[Captain Craig]

I'm not anti-this title or either lead character. Peter is my Spider-man and I like Miles just fine.
However, I must point out the hypocrisy of Marvel making Ben, yet again unusable in this style way....a hero Spider but use Miles.

Broadly, the hypocrisy extends that Steve and Sam can both be Captain America.
There can be both Tony and Rhodey as Iron Man (we all know War Machine is simply an armor designation).
Thor and Beta Ray can both be out there even if Bill is used sparingly he's not corrupted into a malevolent force. Even Jane at one point made 3 Thors.

It also grates on my that Danny has been removed as a SoV but I'm starting to digress.

[Unspeakable Evil]

This is neat. Hope it’s good. Maybe some light hearted side stories for Miles/Peter is needed. Some heavy stuff keeps happening in their main books. Lol

Wouldn't the first assumption be this will be more like Spectacular instead of YJ?

We might even get a Peter Parker that can actually win fights again even if he has to team-up with somebody else to do it. I just hope it's written better than that FCBD team-up where they fought Shocker and Peter got hit in a dumb way so Miles would have to do something.

I guess no Jackpot series

I guess the better question is will Weisman touch on MJ being a Superhero now in his book?

And the even better question: do we even want him to?

A more relevant question is will MJ be a major part of the book. My betting is this will primarily be a Miles story. Maybe a Karate Kid type comic with Miles as Daniel and Peter as Mr. Miyagi
