>The countdown to one of the biggest milestones in comic book history officially begins! This September, Marvel Comics proudly presents the 1000th issue of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, and is pulling out all the stops to make it one of the grandest comics it's ever published!>AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1000 will be led by an epic story by Joe Kelly and Pepe Larraz that serves as both a culmination of their work on the title so far AND a pivotal moment that launches into the next phase of their acclaimed run! Then, the giant-size spectacular continues with special anniversary stories by an unprecedented lineup of renowned creators from legendary Spider-Man creators and modern superstars to surprise contributors! The talent includes the likes of John Romita Jr., Frank Miller, Peach Momoko, Stuart Immonen, Brian Michael Bendis, Dan Slott, J.M. DeMatteis, Patrick Gleason, Marcos Martin and, making his Marvel Comics debut, screenwriter Noah Hawley (Alien: Earth)!
>Further details will be revealed in the weeks ahead, but today fans can check out John Romita Jr.’s main cover, which unites the iconic Spidey artist with acclaimed artist Paolo Rivera for the first time, along with a variant cover by Pepe Larraz that teases the debut of the new super villain, Ravage!>Spider-Man faces his greatest fear and his most frightening new villain in decades. Who is this Ravage? And how will his history-shattering power force Peter to question his very legacy? It’s one of Spider-Man’s most personal battles to date, and one that will shape his path for the next 1,000 issues!>“Writing Amazing Spider-Man #1000 has stirred up a lot of emotions for me, but gratitude is chief among them,” Kelly shared. “It's a true honor to have the opportunity to contribute to Spidey's legacy with a huge milestone like this. And special bonus - we get to introduce a new villain?! Amazing. Ravage is layered and complex and mysterious, and I can't wait to unleash him on the readers with this monumental issue!”>Pre-order your copy of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1000 at your local comic shop and stay tuned in the weeks ahead for more talent and story reveals!SOURCE:https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/amazing-spider-man-1000-presents-the-biggest-issue-in-spider-history
>>153775301That pose!
>>153775301>Noah HawleyInteresting
How exactly does time work in marvel comics? spider-man started in like the 60s but the comics today take place in the modern world, so how does that work? why isn't peter parker old now? how can there still be more comics with no ending?
>>153775536Sliding timescale
Kill off MJ and get the symbiote to Eddie alreadyI don't care about anything else
>>153775536it's called make believe
>>153775301>Dan SlottFUCKINGWHYNO ONE LIKES THAT FAT FUCKHE FUCKING SUCKSHE CAN'T EVEN KEEP A FUCKING DEADLINE FOR FUCKS SAKE
>>153775583Last time Eddie lost the symbiote, he didn't get it back for over a decade.
>>153775536cap is unfrozen near iraq nao
>>153775666You're doing too much, Spastic Satan. He fell off by the end, and he's often annoying. But he wrote a lot of good stuff too, and is easily capable of one of these little fluff stories in these celebratory issues.
>>153775337>Jackal-Ben mask>Kindred naming convention>family as the antagonistic forceYep, Nick Lowe "designed" this.
>>153775766Nta but Slott is a faggot and you enjoying his shit is retarded.
>>153775862nta anon either, but I liked Spider-Boy, it was a brief relief over the abysmal dogshit that was Well's Amazing Spood
The Chosen One will return in #1000!
>>153775766>But he wrote a lot of good stuff tooBUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITHe's never been able to write anything that wasn't just slapping action figures together or ragebait
>>153775666if his story is as short as it was in Superman/Spider-Man it might be tolerablehe wasn’t the worst writer in that book
>>153775893It was surface level boredom. Perhaps not offensively bad but Slott getting any praise over it is not worth it.
>>153775301
>>153775337>Hellgate>RavageWtf are those names?
They are aging him down and he's going back to highschool
I feel like I'm in a vicious cycle with this stupid book. If you haven't jumped ship already, 1000 is the time to do it
>>153775301>a pivotal moment that launches into the next phase of their acclaimed run!Acclaimed by who?
>>153777320Do they make his usual people also high school aged?
>>153777379by everyone who is saying "well it's not as bad as wells i guess..."
Did Wells add any new villains in his run (except Chasm if you count that lol)
KWAB
>>153775301Will roommate Michele be there?
>>153775337We are rapidly approaching the 20th anniversary of One More Day and we still haven’t gotten a proper resolution to the Mephisto storyline. He is the perfect villain for Spider-Man to face for his 1000th issue and instead they are coming up with a new villain who will probably end up forgotten once this run ends.
>>153775301>making his Marvel Comics debut, screenwriter Noah Hawley (Alien: Earth)!KEK
>>153779724But this is better it's peters secret cousin
>>153775536https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Glossary:Sliding_Timescale
>>153779394No
>>153779856Not really lmao
I wish Shocker wasn't dead...
>>153780202Good thing nobody's reading Spider-Man right now so nobody's gonna remember Herman died and they'll just bring him back when there's inevitably an editorial turn-over in a couple years
>>153775402Not really
>>153779856If they were going to have someone related to Peter be the main villain of issue #1000 they should have gone with Ben Reilly and have them resolve their issues for a feel good moment. Instead of a brand new mystery cousin who was only introduced a few issues ago.
>>153775742Pete was born after 9/11 now
>>153780072Automatically trash then.
Noah Howley sucks. Alien Earth sucks.
>>153779853OMG I FUCKING LOVE HACK/FAILED TV WRITERS BECOMING COMIC BOOK WRITERS!!!!! YAAYYYYYYY!!!!!! IT TOTALLY LEADS TO GOOD STORIES!!!!!!!
>>153782448If he is vaguely late 20s, then some time between 1996 an 1998 seems most likely.
>>153779301No one wants Pete Parker's Evil Cousin.
>>153783695Earth tainted you so badly that you no longer like Fargo and Legion? Or are you just retarded?
>>153775301This cover reminds me of the Spider-Man art John Watson made.
>>153775301>>153775337>John Romita Jr.>Brian Michael Bendis >Dan Slott>making his Marvel Comics debut, screenwriter Noah Hawley (Alien: Earth)!!!!!>Ravage is layered and complex and mysterious, and I can't wait to unleash him on the readers with this monumental issue!”lmao. Oh man this will be terrible. At least JMD will write something, and it's not impossible that Miller delivers something good, anything. And where the hell is Stern??? If David was still alive, maybe he would write something as well. Maybe even Conway. rip
>>153788531>If David was still alive, maybe he would write something as well. Maybe even Conway. ripDon't count on it. Lowe didn't ask JMS who was available. #1000 isn't gonna be anything
>>153775337When was the last time a new villain for Spidey even fit with the theming or visual identity of his rogues gallery? Like 2010 or 2014 if generous?
>>153782448>>153784209>He's younger than me now.Fuck
>>153775301Why is Pete shrugging, shitting and swinging at the same fucking time in realistic shading? Who thought this cover was a good idea?
>>153788531Let's be honest, JMD is there for yet another KLH adjacent story, and we're lucky to get him
>>153775301>Special anniversary storiesThey know cunts hate shit being padded with anthologies that go nowhere and mean nothing, and they keep doing it.This isn't like Slott where you can find normies who like his work but there's a strong core who hate him; audiences have UNIVERSALLY shit on the weak, shitty padding they've put in oversized/anniversary books for well over a decade at this point. Especially shit like 900 - that was fucking tragic.Anthologies only work when a story can matter to the characters involved, which typically mean standalones where characters won't return (I do still love Heavy Metal magazine). What audiences wanted from this was simple; A big issue that's ONE STORY (no faggot-tier anthologies), events that will be pivotal to the character (at least for a few years), ideally readable as a standalone whilst the climax of prior plot-points (not necessary, but a bonus), and ONE artist. Actually shell out for a CURRENT, big name, wide-appeal artist to do the book, someone like Greg Capullo (it's not about if you personally like him, it's about generic, normie appeal), or even someone like Bagley because of his ties to the character (JRJR is old and hasn't been good since the early 00's, let the poor cunt retire). This is/was the easiest layup in the world, and they're too incompetent to plan a few months in advance to do it right. These are the bare minimum to a good issue. They've done good anniversary issues before; 200, 300, 400, 500, and even 600. Shit, even 700 and 800 fit these criteria well enough (I've met a number of Slott haters who liked 800 well enough). Things are genuinely, actively deteriorating, and I don't know how or why.
>>153790507>Things are genuinely, actively deteriorating, and I don't know how or why.Lowe editorial standards. I mean look at the fucking cover, how does this look like a good cover for the 1000th issue?
>>153775301Is this the one where Aunt May reveals a big secret?
>>153790661She reveals she has a big futa cock and that's why she did not have children
>>153791039Wasn't her secret kid introduced a couple issues ago? Or was that Ben's bastard?
>>153775301>Amazing Spider-Man' #1000Didn't amazing Spider-Man get rebooted with new number 1s like three times? Feels lkek Disney is fudging this.
>>153791062Implied to be Ben's bastard
>>153790524When everything's mediocre, nothing will be~~~
>>153791173>threeLmao
>>153791173There was the 1999 relaunch, the Byrne/Mackie eraDoes Superior Spider-Man count as a relaunch? Then add that here.Then the 2014 relaunch, the post-Superior Then the 2015 relaunch because Marvel relaunched everything after Secret Wars and pissed everyone offThen the 2018 relaunch with Nick SpencerThen the 2022 relaunch with Zeb WellsThen the 2025 relaunch with Joe Kelly
>>153791173>Feels lkek Disney is fudging this.It's not Disney doing that. It's Marvel itself doing it because they used constant relaunches to pad the numbers in order to make it seem like they're doing well to Disney
>>153778742Paul Rabin, Benjamin Rabin/The Emissary, The Scribbleman, The Spider That Gobbles, Mary Jane Watson/Jackpot.
>15 hours ago>66 postsWow, there is truly zero hype.
>>153792768Even twitter shitting on #1000 issues announcement >>153779301Spider-Man is damaged goods
>>153779301Online perception =/= Public perception
>>153775908>Hot off the presses from the House of Ideas, Marvel Comics proudly presents>TWO MORE DAYPeter, heartbroken by the loss of Paul, is contacted by Mephisto once again. With nothing left to lose, Peter agrees to give his Aunt May's soul to Mephisto, in exchange for bringing Paul Rabin back to life.
>>153775742>>153782448>>153790252I like the idea that Marvel ended in 1999 with Earth X.
>>153775301what the actual fuck is that cover kek
>>153780312>Shocker will be gone for multiple years>Dead in the Vidya, dead in the comics, not even in the moviesDespair.
>>153780202I wish Abe wasn't dead
>>153794462They are building a team for the next gimmick in Undeadbolts.
I've always wanted to ask this question, but I don't want to create a new thread just for it.How many of you have read every issue of a popular superhero comic book series? I'm talking about characters that have been around for decades, shuch as Spider-Man and Superman.
>>153794574When you say "every issue" what do you mean? Because I've read every issue of Amazing Spider-Man (barring a handful of annuals) but I haven't read every appearance of the character
>>153794612I guess I was referring to your situation. It's more realistic to assume that someone has read every issue of a comic book series, plus a few miniseries featuring the same characters, than to assume that they've read every single appearance of a character.
>>153794574I've read every Carol Danvers issue
>>153795192>I've read 30 issuesWow
>>153795345It's like 250
Noah Hawley sucks! Alien Earth Sucks!
>>153795451What was wrong with Fargo and Legion?
>>153775583Many are saying this
>>153790252When I started reading X-Men Rogue was older than meWhen she married Remy I could have given her away at the wedding
>>153782158>brand new mystery cousinBen's clone >Who would clone a cloneNo. A clone of May's husband
>>153795637why do you need to kill off MJ?
>>153790507It's a zombie company ran by sycophants and incompetents with no passion in them. They arent trying to put out a good comic. They are just the mid tiers and lamers that would float around a fully functional company filling in gaps while the real talwnt did the work. The potential talent and wirk8ng real talent would be able to function in a structured environment and would be kept in check and polished by real editorial and a functional organic fanbase.The fuck is marvels online pr team and why are they not muzzling slott or giving him a list of shit to say and do online and in public. Half of his hate comes from his online posting. They cant all be as net savy Simone.Right now its a zombie company filled with quiet quitters, people trying to keep their job not put out goid work, no fucks given primma donnas and parasitic neps/ladder climbers and tourists.
>>153795533Fargo was borrowed success of the Coen Brothers, thats why the first season was ok. Season 2 may be the only decent thing he has produced becuase he stopped borrowing. But then... the show grew uneven across seasons, especially the overstuffed preachy Season 4, and Legion prioritized style over a followable, emotionally grounded narrative which is what makes x-men/ mutants interesting. Not mutation as metaphor for mental illness.Does that makesense, Noah? Anything else? Do you need me to wipe your ass as well? Stop making content slop for tv Noah. You are doing more damage than contributing anything of value.
>>153775337>Ravage 2026Stan Lee's least successful creation vs his most successful
>>153775301Ooh Immonen coming out of retirement for this, no Bagley tho that's sad.
>>153795716It's Slott shitposting, ignore him.
>>153775301Is this pose a reference to something? Cause it kinda looks like shit
>>153794333Any setting that takes place after 2007 becomes instantly soulless because everyone is going to be fucking around on iphones all the time. I realized a while back that smartphones in a setting instantly make it feel awful, if you want your story to suck ass give your characters smart phones.
>>153796586No...its just bad.
>>153796609it looks like the body is upside down and spiderman's head is popping out of an ass
>>153775301why is he shrugging while webshooting
>>153775301>>153796637
>>153796678Anon....its just...Its just bad okay. It feels like the spider offices are passively agressively shitting on the fans.
>>153796722i'm sorry bro. spider-man deserves better. :(
>>153796586Slingshot web from the games? Or the train scene from Spider-Man 2 movie.The coloring reminds me of the old Marvel magazines from the 70's tho.
>>153775301looksl ike someone drew this with mirrored mode and some 3d buildings. what a horrible cover. no wonder no one fucking reads this garbage or buys it anymore.
>>153775908I think Bring Back Uncle Ben instead of Paul would be funnier, they already brought back 616 Gwen so why don't just bring back 616 Uncle Ben for the sake of it ? It's not like stakes in Spider Man stories matter anymore, for anyone wanting to see grown up version of 616 Spider Man , this is never going to happen in main continuity and OMD is proof of that
>>153775536All of the main important stuff happened in the last ten years or so. If the status quo has to change, then the timeline gets more compressed. Cap was unfrozen about ten years ago, at the dawn of the timescale. Peter became spider-man about eight years ago ever since he evolved from [teen] to [adult] and Miles was introduced as the new [teen] age hero. Ironman and Punisher were involved in The War. That war changes often. It was WW2, then Vietnam, and now Iraq. Marvel tried to establish their own fake war to fit every character's everyone's The War, like how they use fictional countries, but everyone hated that.
>>153796586>>153796609>>153796678There are actual people on twitter trying to defend that cover by going "oh why are people mad about a cover that's done by JRJR and Paolo Rivera". This is a bland pose by JRJR who usually does way better. I don't know how Lowe accepted this. Is he trying to see if variant collectors will buy any kind of cover regardless of quality? Rivera can only do so much to make this look good. Is this cover just a small fragment of a larger cover or something? It doesn't explain why the character is posed in a way that comes off low energy and symmetrical. It's like you could make this a MAD Magazine cover and change Spider-Man's head with Alfred E. Neuman's head and some other light modifications
>>153796761Slingshot webs require him to shoot first, hold and pull back then launch. this is Peter in just a shitting shrugging pose jumping and shooting webs at the same time. It is not slingshot webbing.
>>153790118Why does Slott lie so much?
>>153796897Uncle Ben returns and starts dating Spider-Gwen.
>>153797415We need to stop pretending it's the 1980s and this is prime Romita. He hasn't been better than serviceable for a long time.
>>153798334why do you think marvel likes him so much? he exceeds as a corporate bootlicker. if marvel is homelander, dan slott is the deep.
>>153775301>AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1000 will be led by an epic story by Joe Kelly and Pepe Larraz that serves as both a culmination of their work on the title so far AND a pivotal moment that launches into the next phase of their acclaimed run!PAUL IS COMING BACK TO LIFE!
>>153799065That isn't going to happen until the legend of Paul grows. At least two years with a fake-out return and foreshadowing by having fights and team-ups against other Pauls and related names like Jean-Paul. Maybe for Spider-Man 1050 or 1100.
>Aunt May will be shot and raped, shown everywhere on the news, so idiots at college will bully peter even more.>Venom, or some other villain will slice peter's limbs off, he will suck Doc. Ocks dick for a robotic limb procedure.>MJ will ask peter to see her and Paul's more successful twin brother, Joel, fuck each other for an entire week.>peter couldnt pay the houses rent, he is now homeless.BANG! i spoiled you this 1000th issue!
>>153800461At this rate I'd rather we get an evil Peter from the future who went insane trying to stop May's death
>Slott>Bendis>Alien: Earth writer
>>153794462I also wish Harry, Gabe and Sarah weren't dead. And also Phil, and Jason, and Cletus.
>>153800904>Harry>technically died a second time in Spencer's run>Peter didn't get to grieve him because Wells run began and everyone just forgotPoor guy
>>153800368>and related names like Jean-PaulALPHA FLIGHTBROS... THE TIME IS OURS!
>>153795716Not that anon, but I've had a gut feeling they're killing her or ascending her to the throne of Queen in Black somewhere in space, because Lowe and co. don't know what to do with her or want to write her. Relegating her to a role like Nick Fury Sr., where she's never seen outside of the briefest cameos in random books, would be the perfect way to keep her away from Peter while trying to deflect backlash, since she wouldn't *really* be permanently gone. And could still be on variant covers galore. Whether they send her off or kill her, it gives Peter more reason to mope, which is seemingly all they want to write... mopey broke single man.
>>153796678Even Spidey doesn't fucking care anymore
>>153795716nta but because she's a whore?
>>153792060Does DC do these endless relaunches as well? It's so annoying to search for modern issues
>>153802542even batman doesnt have it as bad as Peter, and the joker made sure his entire mission is pointless, and left him broke.(and no, absolute batnan doesnt count since the absolute universe is gonna be shorter, not the status quo)what is even remotely the point of writing a superhero book that is suffering porn 24/7?
>>153775301Mogged by #100 (greatest SM cover ever btw)
>>153803390So far it'sBatman (Snyder/Capullo New 52) in 2011Batman (Tom King Rebirth era) in 2016Batman (Fraction/Jimenez) in 2025There are other books they kept relaunching a lot, but with Batman it looks more reasonable compared to Marvel's constant relaunches, even if I think it was a mistake for them to relaunch again just because Hush had delays.

>>153804323Oh, so they finally remembered that whole "Beware the Spider-Woman" thing
>>153804474The death of Reed Richards by venom's hands oh yeah the are stupid enough to do something like that. But don't worry susan will find a way to bring him back eventually in about 5-10 years that is.
ASM isn't currently bad. But it does feel mediocre. I welcome mediocre after Wells but I don't know man. I can't get excited for the same creative teams that have failed the book for two decades. Maybe the tv writer will save us It's why Ultimate was good. Even with trash writing, it was fresh

>>153804925>ASM isn't currently bad.Actually it is all honesty the last issue was so bad that it was pracitally unreadable what a mess.
>>153804925Shove it, Kelly.
>>153804925The main issue is that we are never allowed to forget about Wells for long. I'm okay with Peter space adventures. I'm with Norman trying to be Spidey in some fucked up way of trying to do right by Peter. But holy shit, Death Spiral takes right out. Fucking slog event that's just there to remind you Paul exists and kill him.
>>153804323>"Oh, no, Gwen wants my cock!"
>>153804760Nah
>>153804985Utter shit!
>>153784908Legion was shit, I never saw Fargo
>>153804057>now stop spamming the board retard>proceeds to flood the thread with solicits, while doing it in a thread that was created before the full solicits droppedANOTHER NEW LOW TO SNAP TO
>>153805768Will you get the fuck out here keep this up and we will report for YOU for spam and bn you. As for solicts I posted them here since this is a Spider-Man thread dumbass.
>>153804925Kelly's run is just fine, compared to Wells it's fucking great but as usual events absolutely sap the flow of the run
>>153804341Somebody leak the stories and the epilogue.
>>153807364Hopefully the epilogue is her six feet under and Brock-Venom pissing on her grave.
>>153796350>this is Stan's "garbage man superhero from the future" comic that Ditko didn't want to work onHe dodged a bullet there
>>153796694lol
>>153803711It's a good cover. But god that was a lame issue, 50 is better
>>153807364>Somebody leak the stories and the epilogue.here it is anon>MJ get arrested by the cops and peter for murder and is senteced by the court to life limprisonment in the epilogu .the judge unexpectedly pulls off his mask who turns out to be none other then Gwen Stacy>Peter: as exactly as we planned Gwen we even fooled everyone into thinking you were dead.Gwen: yes as exactly as we planned.>they begin to laugh maniacally the final shot shows that Norman is now their prisoner who is very close to deathfade to black,
>>153804323#999 will be a fucking oc donut steel nuGwen issue
>>153804323This is the second time this year Marvel has teased Gwen becoming a villain. If they actually do pull the trigger on this, which villain identity would you prefer?>Stay as Ghost-Spider>Become a Goblin again >Get her symbiote back and go as Tantrum>Go the Ultimate route again as Mysterio
>>153797415>>153796586>>153794368It looks like a fucking edit
>>153807915Do something out of left field like Mirage or Lightmaster.
>>153807850Did a Polish guy write this? I'm getting a bad vibe from this post, I think the guy who wrote this might even be a pedophile
>>153807915fuck off Spider-Gwen is not becoming a villain.
>>153808233I take it you want to ban you now for spam right? keep it and we will do exacly that.
>>153808233>Did a Polish guy write this? I'm getting a bad vibe from this post, I think the guy who wrote this might even be a pedophileJannies ban this anon for spam please.
>>153808233>Did a Polish guy write this? I'm getting a bad vibe from this post, I think the guy who wrote this might even be a pedophile>I am not giving back the marriage
>>153808334
and now let'sd take a look ast the marriages which did work shall we you lose again marvel fans.
>>153807850>"Muh Gwen" faggotry.She's dead, forever.
>>153808346Hey Mephisto, can I fuck your son?
If Mephisto is killed, would he be buried as a christian too?
>>153808383>Hey Mephisto, can I fuck your son?>I have no son
>>153795716NTA but best way to wash her out is to kill the current one now and either make the twist that it was actually a clone all along with the real MJ in some pod or have her be reborn without any memory of the last few years.
>>153808402Yes. He is the closest to the Christian understanding of devil. Even Satan is just a pagan god in disguise.
>>153808376Woah I didn't know that gwenschizo was into yuri
>>153808381she will back someday as will the orginal captain marvel they all come back soon or later jason todd is the best example of this.
>>153808448>Gwenschizo is also a Marv trutherEven more reason to dislike him
>>153808464Doesn't Carol consider that alien invader important or something?
>>153808255This is Marvel we’re talking about, they’ve turned plenty of heroes into villains. Don’t you remember what happened to Ben Reilly and Phil Urich? Heck, they even turned Peter into a villain twice during the last run.
>>153808430What about Victor? Why did nobody bury him and if he could be buried, would he be buried as a christian too?
>>153808376all joking aside superman and lois are still happily married to each other to this day now how's that for true love
>>153808479I don't think it work with Spider-Gwen already tried making her a villain once. besides her fanbase is way for too big for them to permanently turn into a villain. Just to be clear I don't like her at all and I would love if they got rid of her for good but sadly they will never do that,
>>153808492Presumably. I think another story established that Doctor Doom is God.
>>153796678
>>153793695What is the public perception of Spider-Man comics?
Marvel's website and the wiki both list #500-700 under volume 2 for ASM, but I could've sworn they used be under volume 1. Was that changed or am i schizo
Do you think norman prefers Jinx or Gwen?
>>153808920They've always been vol 2, but because it uses the legacy numbers from 500 onwards some places counted it as vol 1. RCO is one of those places
>>153808957Do you think norman prefers Jinx or Gwen?
>>153808918Comics aren't very popular so normies don't have any opinion on asm. And even if they are familiar from someplace like youtube their opinions don't have any sway because they don't buy issues anyways
>>153808960Thank you anon
>>153808690>another story established that Doctor Doom is GodWho would view him as such? His mom went naked in front of Mephisto and she's still dead to this day.
>>153808278>>153808293>>153808334Polish IP detected. Check his harddrive for CP.
>>153808448>Original Captain MarvelThat's not Billy Batson.
>>153808617>fanbase is way too big>can't sell enough to keep an on-going Are you sure about that?
>>153775301>Bendis>Slott>JRJR>Alien Earth writerHow does Marvel keep fucking things up. He's the most popular character EVER and they still make every wrong move. How can they even recover from all of this outside of a hard reboot?
I wonder if JRJR accepts low pay or just works fast as fuck, how does he get so much work
>>153809471It's the later, he calls his own art style "deadline style" Not sure why you would do that for a cover though.
Sincere question, how many of us do you think are still in these threads? Since IP tracking is done, the best I can do is guess. I know there's a few people like Gwenschizo, who are apparent, SheVenoMJ anon, who is open about it. I'm guessing there's something like 10-15 of us just going back and forth on a regular basis, and others jump in from time to time.
>>153809994I think Spidey is a big enough character to attract a decent size crowd. Probably 30ish
>>153809994There's definitely a lot of spam, but even if we're not many posters it's not a Spider-Man problem. It's a 4chan thing, just check 4stats. But anons always talk about that in every board nowadays so I think that it's a topic that we've already covered a lot. Unless you are in a fotm thread, or in a fandom so autistic that's even attracting outsider here, you won't see a lot of traffic
>>153809994Why did hiroshimoot remove IP tracking anyway, only astroturfing faggots gain from that
What is it with comics and just putting a bunch of floating heads on covers? I always thought that shit looked kinda dumb.
>>153810264 BIG CHEESE [/spoiler
>>153809258I think everyone knows it's on editorial at this point along with Marvel having trouble with money
>>153810326they might have less money trouble if they wrote better comics
>>153810310That's a skill issue on your part
>>153810310Sometimes you get kino>>153803711
>>153810342Imagine how hard they had to try and fuck up the momentum they had from the movies. The entire world has their eyes on your company and IPs and you do absolutely nothing with the new found attention or popularity
>>153810326What the fuck was Lowe thinking when he did Wells run? Beyond was beyond shit already, give it to some cuck with a failing marriage so he could project the failure on Spider-Man?Zeb Wells destroyed the brand and yet they hire him still, tells you a lot about Marvel.
>>153775301he looks like a fuckin chimp.
>>153811301I wouldn't put Spencer down as one of the all time greats but it's insane how they seemed to go out of the way to burn down everything he built.
>>153811301I don't know the first thing about what goes on in editorial, but Lowe strikes me as someone who sits back and lets writers do whatever they want until his superiors start complaining. He gave Slott the go-ahead for The Clone Conspiracy after Wacker repeatedly said no.
>>153808957Didn't his thing with Gwen turn out to be Mysterio or some bullshit?
>>153810342Yeah you'd think that, but I'm getting convinced that these guys in editorial either don't remember how to do a story or fell for the sunk cost fallacy
>>153812234yep
>>153812460Gwen would be cuter if she actually looked like this>top rightcursed>bottom right canon
>>153812567Ditko Gwen doesn't deserve to be mysterio, she was replaced when Lee Romita Gwen came in. That was when Mysterio started pretending to be Gwen
>>153812883Also Betty Brant and Ned Leeds. ASM 39 was very OOC
>>153794264YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>153794264yk, I now realize "House of Ideas" does not mean the ideas are good
