Nobody thought that except Kirkman and the character's creators. X-23 is amazingly out of character during that entire story, it's like Kirkman never read a single book she was in.

I haven't thought about any of this since it came out, but people might be confused because Kirkman wrote a series of one-shots called Marvel Knights 2099 in 2004. They were disconnected from any other version of 2099 shown in any Marvel comics, and haven't been mentioned since, except when Kirkman re-used it briefly in the Marvel Team-Up issues people are talking about. My memory matches others in saying they were not good.

What ended up happening with Magneto in Secret Empire? I know people were pissed based on that variant cover about 6 months ago but since I didn't read the series I don't know what his story actually was.

He agrees with Cap's plan to make New Tian a thing, fakes his death for a bit, and ends up fighting against Hydra.

I recall a single panel from a single comic book which featured Marvel multiverse Earth where New York City was completely filled with Empire State Buildings and Statues of Liberty. Someone was flying over it and the caption was "I was on Earth-____" and I can't remember anything else. Anybody know what panel/comic/Earth it was?

Probably a typo on Autism Sneaks' part. That Earth is Earth-212, which is an NYC area code. The area code to have, if that one episode of Seinfeld is to be believed.

I think he probably just went one number up from 212 actually, considering the post he's quoting is about that very Earth???

Fun fact: when area codes were implemented, the places with the highest population densities got the lowest numbers because they would be the fastest to dial on a rotary phone since they would be called the most.

Ummm Hyperion had a short lived book where he became a trucker and fought alien carnies, and last i saw him was in secret empire he was on the space side of the force field fighting the chitari Nighthawk also had a short lived book where he beat up crooked cops and chased a serial killer in Chicago. iirc he died during secret empire I don't remember seeing anyone else after the main book ended

In a fashion that basically screamed "Well, we know everyone's coming back to life after this, so might as well do something interesting with the fascist dystopian nightmare". He wasn't even in costume when he died, he was just gunned down as a civilian iirc.

The force field thing gets even more ridiculous after two seconds of thought cuz Spencer has chitari waves ram into it on like three separate occasions and it didn't break so all the heroes were out there fighting and dying for essentially no reason. They all coulda just moved out of the way and waited until someone on earth disabled the shield and been alright

May and Ben captured him and his sister (who were merpeople) in the sea and somehow turned them into people and thus Peter's entire life is a lie. His sister made her way back to the sea but Peter never did. Spider-Man will end when he figures it out.

Ben and May looked so decrepit right from the very beginning that you wonder how old Ben would have been when Peter was born and how much older Ben was than Richard to be decrepit by the time Peter was in his mid-teens. They look like grandparents.

I forget if it's on May's side or on the Parker side, but I know one of the siblings had a 20 year difference.

ImpAtom posted:There are large age gaps between siblings. I was in college before my sister was born. Of course it's not unfamothable but it's not only the difference in ages between the two brothers. It just makes me wonder because the ages (as far as I know) were never strictly told to us. Like if we assume super cool secret agent Richard Parker became a father at 30 and Ben was 20 years older than him, then by the time Amazing Fantasy #15 comes out he's in his mid-60s. Ben looks old for his age there though not terrible I suppose. But May looks bad for being in her 60s. Maybe in addition she's older than Ben? Again, there's nothing definitive and there's nothing impossible about any of it, but just Things That Make You Go "Hmmm..."

I think that when I was a child I just assumed Ben and May were his great-aunt and great-uncle. I have five great-uncles and I never addressed any of them as "Great-Uncle Joe."
