>>147130514>oh boy, can't wait for more felicia baiting
Can Coulson just stop being a thing.
>>147130510>>147130498Is it the same wall? Can't they coordinate to keep his shoes consistent at least?>>147130537Shut up you philistine.
>Pete can't handle dying a few timeshe needs his Rem back
>>147130468This is fucking stupid. You don't need to traumatize someone dozens of times to make him do incredible good in the world.
>>147131010>You don't need to traumatize someone dozens of times to make him do incredible good in the world.No, but it certainly helps.People who live charmed lives don't typically look out for the little guy.Most of them just become Donald Trump.
reminder that marlo is supposed to be death
>>147130460>>147130466>>147130468>MEMBER THESE PAST THINGS?!!! MEMBER?!!I know some people will ooh and aww at these memberberries but I can’t help just roll my eyes.
>>147130466What's the upper right?
>>147130494>>147130498It had to end up like this. Peter has passed through too much, so he is in his right to say "That's it!!!". Spider-Man is literally burnt.
>>147131067Ok but we have another book coming out right now where Peter got a happy life, and given the option he still chose to become Spider-Man.Its not the suffering that shaped him, at least not initially. It was the strong moral bedrock Uncle Ben helped cultivate in him growing up. Once that's formed Peter can and will do good for the world in his life with or without guilt.
Can anyone storytime the latest issues of "Astonishing Spider-Man Infinity Comic"?
>>147131350nobody cares about your fanfic bro
>>147130537I'm not falling for that again!
>>147130460>>147130466>>147130468>One of these things is not like the others, one of these panels just doesn't belong
>>147131431The fake Aunt May?
>>147131274Flash's death in Go Down Swinging, I think?
>>147131274
>>147130514Turns out all Pete needed was some post-nut clarity.
>>147130420Ugh, FINEGotta have my Spider-Man!
>>147130466I find it funny that all of the deaths on this page of the "meaning "deaths montage were undone at some point. Except Jean DeWolff.
>>147130468>SEE, reader? Spider-Man HAS to suffer and lose all his loved ones in order to be a great hero and save the Spider-Verse!>Your fan-favourite Phil Coulson, now the psychopomp of the Marvel Universe, said that! So of COURSE it's true!
>>147130480>>147130486>>147130490This is better than whatever Peter is doing.
>>147131212>nooooooooo you can't reference things i haven't read
>the book where Spider-Man keeps saying "I DON'T CARE" and "NOTHING EVER CHANGES" barely has anyone in the storytimeGood job on taking the comic to heart, guys!Keep thwippin'!
>>147130514>>147132336Its so obvious this whole thing is more editorial mandated bullshit. Why is Lowe's name just not on the comic as the writer? I'd at least be able to respect him if he wasn't hiding behind good writers like Joe Kelly.
I was hoping you'd let this thread die for the joke.
>>147132344WhoopsPerhaps I should have saged it >>147132341Don't make the mistake of assuming that Kelly and Derek Landy aren't on board with this. They probably agree with editorial's direction for Spider-Man entirely, hence why they're writing this
>>147131370Nobody cares about your drivel either faggot.
>>147130418I like that Peter is finally done with the bullshit in this issue, but editorial is gay and retarded and demands their pet monkey continues to dance and suffer forever. Fuck editorial let the man rest for a little while.
>>147130466whoa, somebody at marvel actually remembers ASM400
>>147130420surprised Kev Walker still doing interiors for Marvel
>>147131081Marlo is Phil's Boss.So she is the one telling him what to do.
>>147130468what is the cushion-shaped Spider-man thing in the top right?
Anyone want to reveal what the fuck is going in with the arc became its not even making sense as "Spidey torture porn"..
>>147132831Dr Doom stole the position of Sorcerer Supreme from Dr Strange in the Vampire crossover but won't do his job protecting earth as he's too busy scheming to take over the Earth. So he is forcing Peter to stop a group of demons with help from a magic armor Doom gave him that will resurrect him up to 8 time max, which Peter needs as the demons keep killing him
>>147130895didn't he already die a fuckton by Kindred in a montage?
>>147130460>>147130466>>147130468>Peter Parker doesn't think about Kamala Khan dying in his arms any more...Sure, that death was retconned away but so were a lot of the deaths in these self-indulgent montages...
>>147131370>The fanfic is outselling the main book.Lowebros? Zebheads? Are we retarded?
This book is so fucking bad. Imagine having the balls to charge for this crap.
>>147130498Ah, literally nothing at all happened.
>>147132816Tsum Tsum
>>147131081
>>147130498
>>147130514>Peter cheating on Shay with with Felicia in ASM and also with Webhead in astonishingThey really see all the women in Peter’s life as worthless. Even he doesn’t seem to respect them.
>>147130460Who's the mook with the green shirt bottom center?
>>147131349That's not how guilt and responsibility work.Peter will never be free.
>>147134965Nice.
>>147130833It's too late already and they never even explained which one of his two origins in 616 is the canon one.
>Spider-man comic without any Spider-manWow, it's just like my Ultimate Spider-man comics!
>>147136095>last USM issue had Peter as Spider-Man just in the final page>this ASM issue was pure nostalgia crapUSMfags, we won
>>147136176>usm is shit>asm is shit>usmbros we wonWhat?
>>147130466What's the top right moment? Not recognizing itFlash dying?
>>147136095Yeah, except it’s shit. It’s as if Lowe saw what Ultimate was doing, decided “I CAN MAKE A BIG BOY BOOK WITH NO HITTING OR PUNCHING TOO” and then just retreaded Spider-Man No More yet again.This and the whole aping USM #4 with a dinner issue in ASM #55, which also had zero Spider-Man, just shows that the guys writing this are completely out of touch and don’t realize what people actually liked, which was to have character development and evolving relationships instead of just making out with disposable generic hot chick #152out of nowhere.It’s very funny, but regardless of many action scenes that happen or don’t happen in ASM, nothing actually happens! There are entire several of things happening in each issue of USM even with the slow burn, which is why it was literally effortless to Uno Reverse ‘nothing ever happens’ on to ASM with zero effort ala >>147134006They have had five entire issues to work with so far for Eight Deaths, and NOTHING IS FUCKING HAPPENING. We already know how it ends: Peter comes back to life with a temporary powerup to make him a Juggernaut ripoff and he wraps everything up in the span of an issue. There’s no dramatic tension to any of this, because nothing ever happens.
>>147137102Yeah from Slott's last arc.
>>147135426Ned.
>>147137805>>147137714>>147137102Half these niggers are alive again I’m pretty sure the only one still dead are Jean DeWolff and George Stacy (Gwen came back via Spider-Gwen)
>>147137814It feels like a statement about death in comic books like that.
>>147130466>I'm such a battered housewife that I appreciated Ben's death showing up here
>>147131446Pretty sure he means the random Spider-Verse shilling
>>147130833Never
>>147136095USM still features Spider-Man characters (plural, because USM can actually juggle a supporting cast) in every issue. This was Landy shilling the Coulson stuff he's being doing for the past year with three pages of "remember this?"
>>147138326USM is a family/work drama with a small amount of Spider-Man, of course it has a supporting cast, there'd be nothing to it otherwise.
>>147130475>None of this matters.Is Lowe trying to do shitty meta-commentary about how his shitty books where nothing ever happens do matter in the end somehow? Because that's hella gay, your books don't matter Nick Lowe! Nothing you do matters!
Wow, don't I feel all warm and fuzzy. You know, the "hero at his lowest point who quits only to rally himself with new resolve" cliche only works if the audience has ANY indication that things will be better. They won't be, we'll just return to a misguided status quo where Peter's life is shit, where he lets people down constantly, where he has ZERO stability, all while he lies to himself about what truly makes him happy because editorial is so beyond fucked/out of touch.
Wait, so ASM is pretty much weekly now?Or 3 issues a month again, like during BND?
>>147139674Still twice a month but there are a couple of point issues that Lowe loves so much in this arc for extra story.
>>147135454Don't be so sure. One you have lost sense of meaning and purpose, guilt and responsability are just empty words for you. I'm afraid, in this point, Peter would hit Aunt May just to make her shut her complaints or her lectures, just because she's annoying him. And he would say: "I'm sick of hearing you, and you won't shut. So shut up, or I'll hit you again".
>>147130418badass cover
>>147130418When the fuck will Juggernaut appear? I'm tired of waiting, it's the only reason I'm reading this.
>>147130420If I have to
