Thanks, I respect people who stick to their principles. Sorry, if sometimes I get so annoyed with Marvel that I rant here. I'll try to keep it to a minimum in the future out of respect for you and others who don't want to see it, but no promises they get under my skin too easily lol.

How long do we think it will take before MJ is even featured in ASM in 2024? I'm not expecting much more than a cameo in the gang war ASM issues. Nick has teased more stuff with Paul in the letters pages so I'd hope they have something before Zeb leaves around #60. But they seem really attached both to keeping the status quo and doing literally nothing with MJ. So my hopes aren't too high.

I think at the very least we won't see MJ until after the Jackpot/Black Cat mini wraps up.
Maybe by that she'll be a little soured on Paul/the hero life so she's in a place for Wells to wrap everything up on his end.
I mean it's one thing for a status quo to be lame. (It is) And it is another thing for a status quo to wholesale write the 2nd most popular character out of the story for months. Like ASM#35 released in October 2023. If Frontier is right, and I don't think that prediction is crazy given what we've seen, then we won't see MJ in ASM until like June/July 2024. (8-9 months!!!) That's insane imo.

I count Beyond as part of this run since Wells' name is on the first issue and he was the "showrunner" for that period of time before taking on the title by himself (minus the issues Joe Kelly wrote).
Also, Ben becomes Chasm and all that (but that discussion is for another thread).
