Hey guys, remember me? I'm Sideways, DC's Spider-Man!
>>154845493Yeah. Your comic stunk.
>>154845493I preferred Silencer.
>>154845493Why won't they bring him back?
>>154845493The problem, like many OCs, is that he only really looked good in one artists' hands Aesthetically speaking. But also business-wise I don't think they were prepared to continue to pay him and work with him, and post Image exodus giving that much power to an artist is almost a non-starter anyway
>>154845493who
>>154845493I thought Jaime was DC's Spider-Man?
>>154846013Silver Age Flash is DC's Spider-man.
>>154845493>8 names on the cover of the 1st issueWhat a corporate slop.
>>154845493Why can’t modern day heroes that aren’t OC’s picking up the mantle of an established hero seem to take off anymore?
>>154846611because they're made for current year
>>154845493dc had a few spider man like characters before him
>>154845493I liked how when his birth mother finally showed up at the front door, she was hot and the splash page was a tribute to the first time we see MJ
>>154846761I still hate that his white mom got fridged, I really liked her
>new line gives artists top billing >Writing is mostly garbage across the board >Line fails>Artists never ever get top billing again Those word dorks did this on purpose
>>154846589It even ends with "SHADDAP" as if the cover itself got tired of listing the names.
>>154845493It was neat seeing you in Prime's book
>>154845493He’s showed up in Justice League Unlimited.
>>154845493The first few issues were good then Jordan left and the cast and plot were abandoned to have Sideways dick around in multiverse shit or whatever it was. If they'd kept the actual good parts instead of trying to be some kind of knockoff Morrison epic it might have lasted at least as long as Silencer.
>>154846611The audience for comics is a small core of aging geeks that only wants "important" stories and characters.
>>154845493What was up with the brief period when DC was pushing Marvel epies? Like Damage the DC Hulk or the Terrifics etc?
>>154845493More like USM, which sucks.>>154846611You phrase this like legacies work.
>>154846013That is Wally West, but unlike peter, he and his family broke reality to defeat and humiate the devil.
>>154848072At least Terrifics was ripoff by team-up dynamic alone, not individual characters.Also it was pretty good.
>>154845493Man, this line really died with a whimper, huh?I forgot there were so many titles, I only remembered Sideways, Terrifics, Silencer, and Damage, there was a whole other half to it.
>>154848072The consensus narrative was it wasn't just DC ripping off Marvel, it was DC specifically going after books that Marvel was currently mistreating. Spider-Man was a mess (not that this really changed since), Hulk was dead (this was before the immortal twist) and Fantastic Four was infamously being deliberately downplayed by Marvel at the time.
>>154848251Honestly, based DC the movie synergy was pretty bad back in the day.
>>154845493Literally I just don’t like his design. Looks like something you could whip up on DC universe online
>>154848536Whatever the fuck that means.
>>154845826Not enough fans buying the comic and too much royalties to the creative team.
>>154845826>>154848637That's why they should make a cartoon about him.
>>154846944That moment when he realized his mom is dead and he had 5 missing calls from her was so sad.
There's this weird irony that the man whose modus operandus was "We're going to take the fun out of DC" towards the end put so much effort into trying to tell Marvel "you took the fun out of Spider-Man, what's wrong with you"I'm retarded, make it make sense /co/ because I genuinely liked Sideways and not just because Rocafort was excellent.
>>154849600Well you just have the wrong picture of Didio.
>>154849617Maybe I do, it's hard to say but he did say he was going to wipe the smile off readers' faces
>>154850691And?
I miss her
>>154845493Love it or hate it, the whole designation of DC's Spider-man isn't very well earned here.
>>154851612Don't mind me, just posting best girl(s).
>>154851652It really would have been better if he and Ernie stayed as platonic friends while he eventually got with Emie.
>>154851709It would've been great if he got with both and then some.
