Is the upside down kiss something that predates the movies? Originally Posted by Frontier

I think it first actually popped up when Spidey started dating Black Cat. Originally Posted by millernumber1

I could've sworn the upside-down kiss was originally from the first Raimi film, and that was one of the reasons it became so surprisingly iconic. Originally Posted by Frontier

Said the following and wish to here, aging Annie up was a big mistake. Haven't said this though, losing Conway/Stegman was the other blow to the book.

Completely agree about Stegman...not as convinced about Conway. Originally Posted by Batman Begins 2005

Stegman made a good debut as writer, he's a great artist. The artwork dropped when Stegman left. Originally Posted by millernumber1

One other gripe about the book was pacing with stories either going too long or rushed.
I hope it doesn't come across like I'm giving the book a kicking. The original miniseries was great, same for a married Peter and Mary Jane again.

100% agree. I have to admit, one of the reasons I didn't notice the strength of Stegman's art was Conway's writing didn't really excite me. But going back, after Houser had some solid writing even within the frustrating 8 years later skip, the art has been really, really inferior to the level of detail, appeal, and polish. And I did actually like Stegman's written issues a bit better than Conway's. Originally Posted by Batman Begins 2005

It felt too much like the moments setup and paid off were either sitcom-level jokes, or conflicts that didn't really get resolved in ways that made the marriage stronger.

A fitting switch of positions of that famous scene. Originally Posted by Miles To Go

Man, I can't believe they never did that in the actual book! Such a wasted opportunity. Originally Posted by WebLurker

Regarding Annie getting the Spider-girl title. Please no, please no. A part of me is like "Okay sure could work" another part is, "No, don't do this to Mayday, at least let her keep that after you screwed her over so many times Marvel."
I would say that Conway did get a lot of what made Mj and peter tick as a couple and I thought a lot of the moments with them and Annie were adorable.
