The way you talk about MJ, sounds like she kinda saved whatever was left of the show lol.
But yeah, pretty sad that supporting cast doesn't get a lot of focus, JJ is the one who has the most screen time, and part of the reason he has that much is because he now knows Peter is Spidey, although his character still has a proper life outside of that with the podcasts, plus his character always revolved around Spidey, so he has it better than literally everyone else.
Well, Marvel doesn't mind saying the "Remember the new guy?" trope, they did it with two Superman rip offs after all, Sentry and Blue Marvel.
Would be funny if Ezekiel used the Noir costume , wouldn't be the first time he'd steal another Peter's costume either, since in Spider-Verse we had a random Ezekiel who had the Last Stand costume.
Either way, not really sure how that would work, aside from sliding timescale, part of the point of Ezekiel's character is that he's a pussy who was never actually active as a hero, which is why he even sacrificed himself for Peter, he realized that Peter was the better person because he never made excuses, was always active and didn't think "I'll do it later", Ezekiel being active at any point could kinda ruin that.
Whenever they use MJ poorly they did that by default anyways lol.It's because Post-BND Spider-Man has disproportionately relied on events than on character stories. It kinda has to, otherwise it risks drawing attention to OMD.
I think it's less because of that, and more because super-heroes became more hero foccused on that time, which ironically made OMD even more pointless since Peter's social life isn't used muych, so kicking out MJ was kinda redundant lol.
You're wrong because Peter never says he's the fastest in the world, only for someone to be faster than him every 5 minutes .
