1.)
Romance MJ and Pete are
finally back together, but they seem to spend very little time together in non-spidey situations (imo). MJ doesn't need to be a hero or spun off into her own solo book. It's OK for supporting characters to just be
that, supporting characters. She can still proactively aid her "husband" like when she helped out Pete design a new superhero costume during "Identity Crisis," or helping him work through a mystery like in "Hobgoblin Lives." Otherwise, let's see Pete and MJ in more "adult" intimate situations, like in the 90's or the JMS run of the early 2000's.
2.)
Interacting with his co-workers (I miss Pete and Robbie Robertson's friendship, as well, as the rest of the classic Bugle Staff, like Kate Cushing and Glory Grant) I don't mind him having new science lab co-workers, but I want it in a more
realistic setting, like ESU, not the crazy "super-science" labs you see in Horizon or Beyond. They should also not treat him like a moron. Ie: the co-workers at Horizon or Parker Industries.
3.)
Less Avengers and SHIELD team ups. I don't mind an occasional superhero guest star, but it really feels like it got out of hand in recent years. If Peter needs to globe trot, let it be on his or the Bugle's dime, not the U.S. government. And if he needs allies, let it be more classic reoccurring
Spider-man allies. (Black Cat, Silver Sable, Cloak and Dagger) or those "Web warriors" (Miles, Madame Web, etc.) that Marvel is trying to push as the "Spider-Family," but without really doing the work to make it feel organic.
4.) Speaking of which,
more Black Cat.
5.)
A nice mix of new and classic enemies. When the classic baddies DO appear, they should be written as extremely dangerous.
6.)
Hobgoblin and Mr. Fear. I just love these villains, and will buy any book they appear in.
7.)
The Black Costume. I will buy any book it appears in.
8.)
No more weird Venom events. I have no more interest in all these convoluted alien space God/ "Klyntar" shenanigans.
9.)
Romance. Yeah, I already said it once, but it just doesn't
feel like a Spider-man comic if we don't see his soap opera love life. It's been part of the book since Lee and Ditko had Betty Brant and Liz Allen vying for his attention. Whether it's Gwen, MJ, Felicia, Debra, etc. It's always been a core part of the series. When it's missing (ala most of Dan Slott's run) you can just feel it.
