Yesterday we tagged along on some mutie business with Marrow, and took a flashback to the time Spidey tangle with the Silver Surfer and Psycho Man>previous threadshttps://pastebin.com/nnBhEvbV
I think I've heard about this
>>153574531Were in the marvel knights era? God damn
>>153574554Why would the FF be at mysterios funeral?
>>153574595>Karen's death turned out to be fake tooYou know what, they might as well do that at this point
>>153574531It's Da Red Evil!
So I missed some stuff
>>153574677kek
>>153574547>Kevin Smith DaredevilOh boy
>>153574757>It's insanity man! And we're the crucial cog in the damnation machineMatt would never say this
Does *this* baby ever come back?
What... wrist motion causes that?
>>153574531I thought Marvel Knights wasn't cannon.
>>153574547>TV News ClarkAn almost forgotten era.
Who?
>>153575021What's with the lips and the sixhead on Peter this issue?
>>153575043Damn, he's such a who he doesn't even have a full entry on the wiki. Just a blurb in a character index.
>>153575043>>153575077Which who? The teacher never mentioned before or sense or the radical 90s student never mentioned before or sense?
So what're the odds Peter makes it to prom?
It was the last term of grade 12 when I started skipping too

Peter, isn't this just a perfect opportunity?It's a bit spineless but Flash making you an offer you can't refuse is something Liz will understand
I like the writing for both Betty and Liz in this story
>>153574554>>153574595How the fuck did she know Man Ape, that's the real question here
>>153575597I think it’s just a marvel knights thing
The End!That was good story, I liked that. A very Spider-Man story.
>>153575861Thanks for storytiming, Magister! That was some quality Spidey.
>>153575861Yeah I liked this one as well, it’s really nice seeing a story that involves the characters in peters life AND his spider-manning activities. It really gives the stories more weight, I wish we could get stuff like this today since the writer of this story is the current writer on amazing, but times a bitch I guess
>>153574736We just motherfuckin' had Mysterio in a story as a flashback to perhaps college age or high school age Peter where Mysterio is doing sphinx holograms and floating platforms with the end being him getting cucked because of his antics and and then obsessing over movies in spite of that, to this edgy shit (end of Guardian Devil). Goddamn, I hate 00's comics edge. Like 00's edge like Shadow is fun. Putting rape and exploitative versions of suicide moments into my comics is such horseshit. Smith referencing KLH during that was....so lame. Like pure cynicism and lack of confidence coming from a writer.>>153574794Kek. Yeah that was some shit he went out on a limb on and it came back hokey sounding and awkward. Like not even the corny 60's stuff would phrase it like that.>>153574892>Yeah um...my name is Joe Quesada and I'm hiring all these "superstar" writers to rinse the taste of 90's Image out of mouths fellow comic readers. What are we trying to do? We're gonna put forth comics so deep and good that we won't even need large spreads and splashes. Except me. I'm just gonna stagnate and add borders.>>153575861It's too bad he had soul once. Then he got it ripped out. And we can never reach heights like this or his DP run.
>>153574945>The senior promYou know, Untold Tales wasn't my favorite thing, but at least it was being run parallel to new stories. Here, it just feels like "hey, remembering the good old days" running next to "we're making things like the good old days, with MJ never around and Aunt May coddling Pete and evil Sandman and..."I have to wonder, if their stab at making Tony a kid hadn't ended up as such a dud, would they have tried that with Pete?
>>153574531The Quesada era cancer bleeding into Classic Marvel is just wrong.
Now that I think of it; this should be Sandman in his Frightful Four eraDid the modern artist not want to draw that terrible outfit?
>>153576685Now, when you started these storytimes almost four years ago, did you ever think you'd end up catching or saying things like that?Part of it might be trying to get it consistent with her recent appearance back in the main book. I'm willing to believe that a little bit is just that we're no longer in a period of tremendous editorial rigor. And, if nothing else, the Chapter One stuff is all the excuse they need to say things happened differently than they did because because.
>>153576685We’re still in the Ditko run here since pete is still in high school, I don’t think sandman entered the frightful four until the romita era
>>153574717Real Men Don't Cry.
>>153574763Natasha is such a badass #GirlPower
>>153577062>Now, when you started these storytimes almost four years ago, did you ever think you'd end up catching or saying things like that?Now imagine if more than ~15% of it actually stuck
>>15358081315% of over a thousand issues is still over a hundred issues.
>>153577062I don’t think that untold had a prom issue, hell I don’t think ultimate did. This story could still easily be seen as canon to the Ditko era without interrupting much. Only thing that’s out of place is the ending with Betty since that makes no sense with any canon until the fucking 90s but it’s a nice floor to see Betty go from being a secretary to journalist
>>153576262>Writer of this story is the current writer on amazing, but times a bitch I guessMore like the Editorials is a bitch >>153582078Untold was telling stuff inbetween Ditko issues and in Ultimate's case Peter never even graduated from high school
>>153574843Please tell me not every Daredevil comic was written like this in the 2000s
>>153575026It's funny how every time they make a flashback story Flash gets meaner and more aggressive, when in the original version they mostly just insulted each other
>>153576512I just think Marvel Knights is the start of an all-new Marvel Universe
>>153576392>I have to wonder, if their stab at making Tony a kid hadn't ended up as such a dud, would they have tried that with Pete?Byrne said that they briefly considered it, the idea would be things go completely wrong for Peter and that he would give anything to have everything fixed, the Shaper of Worlds shows up and things get reset so that Peter was now back in high school, Gwen was alive, and so on. Byrne and presumably Mackie and others thought this was an extremely bad idea and scrapped it.
>>153583392Heh
can you guys just stop buying/supporting anything spider related until they make something good.
>>153585013This.
>>153583392Surely you know who wrote the run after this one
>>153588059Not gonna happen.
>>153574599>>153574631These are nice drawings
>>153574558I dislike Palmiotti’s writing, it’s awful. But his ability to sling ink is in some ways underrated given how little he’s brought up in that regard.
