I actually think Mephisto reversing the memories part of One More Day but keeping everything the same would actually be a really good narrative move - i.e. Peter and MJ both suddenly realize that they were married for all this time and mutually decided to give it up and they both have to grapple with the grief and anger over sacrificing the greatest thing that had happened to either of them, especially since they're both sort of at a point where they've moved on from each other. I can see a lot of drama being mined from the self-loathing and torture of realizing they erased the most significant portion of their lives while still keeping the status quo of Mary Jane and Pete not being together. Also, it totally seems like a hilariously Mephisto dick thing to do, where he's torturing people in the guise of doing them a kindness. Also I'll crosspost this from the main Marvel thread: Toxxupation posted:I'm doing a readthrough of Ultimate Spider-Man for the first time and it's crazy how modern and fresh Bendis' take on Spider-Man is. Like, issues from 2000 don't have that weird late 90s/early 00s storytelling style and the story just moves, and it feels so exciting to read in a way that's really impressive.

Slott is back to being terrible with his OC do not steal being powerful enough to beat up all the superheroes in the world including Thor and Hyperion. I can't roll my eyes hard enough at that.

Regent already had his time in the spotlight with the stupid sad sack Spidey mini series, I don't know why we have to revisit the exact same story but this time with Iron Man. Oh well, whatever. Just get it over with, Slott.

I was thinking more that it'd be the closest analogue to how it went in the Secret Wars mini, but sure.

Question about Ultimate Spider-Man. Did Curt Conners lose his arm and become the Lizard entirely offscreen in the 1610? Because I'm wondering if I missed an issue where that happened and Spider-Man subsequently fought him or US-M just sorta assumes "He's the Lizard, you loving get it".

To be fair he only bought them once, but inherited the second set from his clone, Ben Rhynly, when the latter dissolved into a gelatinous heap of cytoplasm.

Vishass posted:That makes a little more sense. I was wondering why Goblin was the wrong person and the book was harping on it. Is their some reason Spidey 2099 ('90's version) doesn't have a collected version? I don't remember it going on for very long, couldn't the entire run fit in an Essentials? No idea if these have become expensive, but I've had half a mind to just buy the whole run as individual issues. Just seems very time consuming.

So I'm near the end of the Clone Saga in USM and I gotta say this is the first major story arc that I don't think really works (especially issue 100 which was just kind of a mess from beginning to end), largely because it has the same problems that 616 Clone Saga did of reintroducing a bunch of dead characters and clones all at once so it's kind of a convoluted mess from beginning to end. The Gwen Stacy is Carnage reveal was pretty loving cool though.

I really liked the Clone Saga arc in USM. The only stuff in USM I didn't like was the Geldoff story and the Deadpool arc. Was Geldoff the first/only original 1610 character to get a 616 version too?

Yeah I gotta say that the end to the Clone Saga stuff was actually really, really strong, I might've jumped the gun there. Still think issue 100 was kind of a total and complete mess though. But yeah, Ultimate Deadpool has a couple of interesting ideas but he's so divorced from the actual character he doesn't really work. Also his costume is so, so bad.
