How would you make Spider-man’s life? If you had the ability to, would you give him a happy life or would you keep it sad and depressing?
>>153025744I'd permanently give him zero bitches. he'd become a full-fledged incel to bring him closer to the average joe of today
>>153025744Because I've been mindbroken by a genderbent Miles with yellow accents on her suit and possibly called Spiderbyte I'll keep everything the same but between peter and Miley they have hardcore sex. The appeal is that thry have each other to bitch about spider bullshit too

>>153025744If I was writing, keeping in mind that the status quo will probably be flipped:>kill Aunt May. someone else can revive her or pull some bullshit twist about how it was a skrull later.>give Peter a new costume design. Probably just move blue to black and cut the webs. Sombre without going to black suit again>Peter Parker goes on a fucking roadtrip. NYC has a billion superheroes, just living in NYC reminds him too much of May right now, he's going cross-country to breath and heal>(re-)introduce some literal who as an alternative love interest>have him fight forgotten c-listers
Peter Parker decides to make it his mission to reconnect with all the people he knew since "drifted apart" and "dead" are the two biggest statuses. I feel like he should also get a stable job, but I don't know what.
>>153025744I'd make an AU with Felicia as the main. This one would have Peter maybe morph from Ditko to something like a mix between Romita Peter and Ultimate Harry Osborn where he is a bit more prideful but also suave. Maybe he even gets a bit egotistical and it crosses a line and Felicia starts to not see the cute and humble goody two shoes Peter she liked. But MJ isn't there to help her so she has to seek help from other heroes like DD and maybe even J Jonah when she shows up to the Bugle as Felicia. Near the end, he puts more effort alongside Felicia to set up some charity.But yeah main 616 would be a retcon of OMD and the last 500 issues or so and he would be happy but still dealing with new problems and get into some arcs/character drama like fights with MJ or them having to make ends meet. Something like that. >>153025882 has the right idea where Aunt May's death leads to a roadtrip story. Man that would be kino and new problems like webswinging in a different city and criminals who were under less watchful eyes now going berserk and become more dangerous as pressure is applied by Peter. Some new characters and Peter learning to drive more as well as having to re-allocate his resources so that he has to superhero while travelling is also a unique situation. How does he get web fluid now? How is he gonna afford that and gas? How is he gonna deal with mutants or other characters in these cities with lower skylines? How is he gonna deal with police who have more time to focus on individual incidents where before he could disappear into the city? Also Slyde would be a great reoccurring threat with his ability to skate on anything. He be sliding on highways like that one part in the Persona 5 intro and bombing trucks or taking shit while Peter is driving.
>>153025812>The first incel community was started by a Canadian college student known only by her first name, Alana, in 1993 or 1997, when she created a website in order to discuss her sexual inactivity with others.[18][20][21][22] The website, titled "Alana's Involuntary Celibacy Project",[18] was used by people of all genders to share their thoughts and experiences. In 1997, she started a mailing list on the topic that used the abbreviation INVCEL, which was later shortened to incel. During her college career and after, she realized she was queer, and became more comfortable with her identity. She later gave the site to a stranger.[23]If you want them to sell the Marvel IP to Canadians then just say so.
>>153025744 Is this the cover for an actual Marvel comic or porn parody cover?
>>153025812This bit unironically. Let’s just focus on Peter as a character for a while and forget all the dumb love-interest forced drama. The female characters aren’t even written well anyway, they’re just there so the artists can draw tits and ass. After a while of Peter focusing on himself maybe introduce a new or old love interest but let them (re)build a fresh new relationship.
>>153026632The thing about Peter’s love life is that Mary Jane has become so ensconced in the public’s perception of the character you’re never going to get another love interest that fans will take to. So this is really the smart move, if editorial is so dead set on the two being apart just let him stay single.
>>153025744Add more Steve Ditko influence from the original run
Married to MJ with a daughter who follows in his web swings
>>153025744Works as a reporter for the Daily Bugle and has his own column about the latest science thing. Happily dating Felicia Hardy and he wears the black suit she made for him on their anniversary. She also does work with Heroes for HirePretty decent social circle. Guys from the Bugle, college like Flash, and heroes like DD. Sometimes works with Eddie who’s a freelance photographer. Will also hang out at the Baxter Building to write and see the FF. Well liked in the hero business but not in a wank kinda way. Just like “Yeah Spider-Man’s pretty cool”Also his suit is now red and black with web wings (it’s my preferred design for him). Was thinking about it being the Last Stand suit since it’s got a more “mature” vibe but that’s kinda seen as a bad end signal. Maybe that could be a one shot or first issue where he considers it and talks to Felicia about it who convinces him to do it cause the circumstances around that future aren’t a factor anymore. Might actually make that a green text if anyone’s interested or I’m bored
>>153025744Why is Spider-Man tiny in the OP pic? We should have more tiny sized Spider-Man fighting female villains (or working with female heroes).
>>153025744Im so sick of each writer, and what fat sacks of trash they are, make Parker's life horrible because they spend all their times jerking it to tuck porn that they have lost any insight in normal life and so they think all normal life plot elements must be associated with a humiliation porn tag. Worse too often they decide ro ruin him to bring him back to a point editorial would think is accessible:Unemployed and living with Aunt MayScrew it. Id do a Spiderman book thats all Spiderman and no Parker. He talks about doing things as Parker. He still struggles with normal person responsibilities and being Spiderman, but we never see Parker. Parker is the mystery. Because if we dont see Parker on the page he isnt going to be written as an outlet for the writer's humiliation porn.
>>153026607Neither. The guy just likes drawing Spider-Man with a big lady
>>153025744The problem with Spider-Man is that the socio-economic status quo that allowed him to believably exist is no longer a reality. It's impossible for a guy to keep bouncing around between jobs while juggling a single throughline unless he's rich (something Venture Bros commented on).It's kinda why Miles and MCU Peter were designed as being "well-off kids" in spirit because their family's income doesn't really factor into their adventures as superheroes since going to a fancy school with dorms covers that aspect (because otherwise, the fantasy would be undermined).You have a few directions to take Peter: either we take the character influences back to his roots (The Shadow, The Spider) and make him a well-off man about town who moonlights as a superhero, go full pulpy Moon Man as a borderline homeless hero who is completely broke, or take a page out of Worm and make Peter into a "villain" who actually becomes part of the criminal underworld in an attempt to protect the innocent.
>>153028874Not sure if people would accept a rich or villainous Peter, the thing that makes him special is he sticks so hard to his morals even when everything’s gone to shit, which it often does because he’s broke and/or doesn’t have much help. A struggling about-to-be-homeless Peter with a bunch of roommates who’s trying to build a life in the city but is way in over his head, then gets hit with this superpower bullshit could be compelling. Of course that version of Peter should start out believably cynical and selfish, which you kind of have to be to live in NYC.
>>153025744Spider-Man's arc, for decades before One More Day, was of him growing up as a person.And Spider-Man's central gimmick has been seeing a good man sacrifice in order to do the right thing.Thusly, at some point the writers should need to come to an answer to the question of whether one can have a good life while also trying to always, or at least mostly, do the right thing.The answer has to be yes. Not just because it's a lighthearted series, not only because that's the more fun option, but because it's more true. There are plenty of people in reality who dedicate themselves to the public good who's lives are fittingly, and deservedly, happy.Spider-Man should still have problems, as all people do, but should have a steady career and home-life. Not without drama, but with a stability which would make Peter Parker happy. Because this is the message, the inevitable culmination of all of Spider-Man, the resolution that even if you sacrifice to do the right and moral thing, you can still have a good and happy life.
>>153025744I'd give him a May to raise. I don't care about him being with MJ anymore so stormin norman can kill her after she gives birth or whatever and I'm not interested in another bitch latching onto him. I'd bury all of this lovelife crap that brought him ruin and just give the him get the chance to be happy with a kid of his own
>>153029458DILF single father Peter… Now that’s an idea.You know what, while we’re here why not just go full Nightwing and start turning Spider-Man into a fanservice heartthrob. On average, a female audience will buy more merch and make more fan content than a male one. It’d also give the writers an excuse to not tie him down to MJ since him being available would appeal to fangirls.
>>153025744More.
>>153025744significantly less gay ultimates run that is also a bootleg absolute dcNo aunt mayno uncle benPeter is an angry street kid and his childhood homeboys are Otto and FlintGreen Goblin is just an enigma the whole time since Norman has been dead for years, whether he's a robot, a vengeful spirit, or Harry snorting Goblin crack is for you to decideVenom doesn't actually affect Peter emotionally, Peter just blames Venom for it and Venom is pretty reasonably irate with Peter for being kind of a dick to him Also his love interest is Felicia.
>>153025744I like Spider-kids.
>>153025744You really gonna post an obvious porn parody cover and not give a source, you slimy som'bitch?
>>153033199Ah but who’s the Mom? Important question I think
>>153033837 I say MJ or black cat would be a good mom for spider kids.Or both.
>>153025744
>>153035587>You know I really shouldn’t… BUUUUUUT
>>153034777I was gonna say have it so he’s got a kid with MJ then Felicia shows up with her and Peter’s kid but I think that’s expected so I think it should be the reverse: Peter and Felicia have a family and then MJ comes all “Hey Tiger remember before we broke up cause I was moving? Well…”
>>153025744>>153025980For a job I think taking him back to being a high school science teacher has a lot of mileage. It keeps him grounded, friendly neighborhood Spider-man, and emphasizes his helping on a personal level. He can still worry about day to day finances without his life being a train wreck. You could have an arc about him being offered some fancy science job for great money, and he's going to take it, but then doesn't because He Sees How Much the Kids Need Him. The school year has lots of deadlines and out of regular work hour responsibility, so that can be part of the balancing act. Good potential for identity reveal drama with individual students, and new social connections with other teachers. Summers are a good opportunity for adventures where you can ignore his professional obligations.His life shouldn't be non-stop misery porn, but teaching can a make a good balance where life can be a struggle but the people and doing good make it worthwhile. Emphasize that the difficulties are his choice and also worth it. If they don't have him in an established loving relationship with Mary Jane, don't have him spend time with her, it's bizarre. Maybe introduce a new love interest comparable to Chet from Marvel Adventures or something.
>>153025988I'd do something similar with a more egotistical peter and Felicia as the main love interest (we need at least one AU its kinda crazy it hasn't happened)I'm sick of people seeing him as a cinnamon roll I fucking hate it.>>153037307I've seen the teacher idea before and it could work, it allows the introduction of characters where drama can be drawn from that isn't his love life
>>153037570Peter takes the kids on a field trip but Mysterio decides it’s the perfect day to rob the museum the field trip is at
The only change I'd make to Peter is that I'd have him have sex with all Marvel women that I personally am attracted too. Just go full self insert with it like they did with Wolverine.
>>153037601>Peter convinces him to instead give the high school kids the spectacle of a lifetime and because Mysterio can't resist the appeal to his ego he just joins in on goofy fun
>>153025744make Peter and Felicia get back together again.90% of ASM problems fixed, all characters and fans are happy.build form there.
>>153038357Seconded
Peter Parker Spiderman. Mourning the loss of his mother figure Aunt may. Living his life as Spiderman. His first lesson was taught by his Uncke Ben's death. "With great power, comes great responsibility."The second lesson he learned as he watched Auntmay pass on from the cancer she silently fought fir 20 years. "Fight till the end and never give up". He spends his time having adventures and being the friendly neighborhood Spiderman. His personal life is just him hanging with friends and yhe occasional failed date or fuck session with random women/ lesbian.Harry is alive and is his best friend but has substance problems mirroring RDJMJ is his on again off again. Model popular on social media presudent of spiderman fanclub.Betty brant is his ex gf now divorcedGwen is dead, the goblin death is permanent canon.Flash wasnt his enemy so much ass asshole nemesis he had begrudgingly respect for
