Mulva posted:"They are like vampires, but they eat spider people and jump dimensions" was the stupidest loving idea anyone ever had except for the idea to keep coming back to that well. The weird thing is that isn't how Morlun was when he first showed up. He ate any animal totem types, in his very first appearance he eats an eagle-themed German hero. He should be just as happy to eat the Rhino, Vulture, or Doc Ock as he is Spider-Man. Or black Panther, Falcon, or Wolverine for that matter. Indeed, since Morlun's vulnerable to radiation and by amping the radiation in his blood is how Spidey beats him the first time, the fact that so many Spider-folk are also radioactive should put them off Morlun's menu. How many times do you go back to a restaurant where you got food poisoning, eh?

Don’t read Spiderverse or Spidergeddon, but read those tie ins. Vulpes gets MVP for both events with Spider Punk and Japanese Spider-Man.

Retro Futurist posted:That actually makes more sense, he’s just cosmic Ahab. "All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the Spider Man is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough. He tasks me; he heaps me; I see in him outrageous strength, with an inscrutable malice sinewing it. That inscrutable thing is chiefly what I hate; and be the Spider Man agent, or be the Spider Man principal, I will wreak that hate upon him." It's like if Grant Morrison read more books.

Three of my favorite Spider-panels are from Dan Slott issues, though the two badass ones don't owe very much to him (FOR THE FATE OF ALL SPIDERS, *tight zoom* It's you, and my perennial favorite, Otto Flippa, The Incan God of Ties)

Vulpes Vulpes you can brag about your stuff all you want, talk about the creative process or dumb anecdotes or easter eggs, we don't mind. That kinda stuff makes the forum more interesting. Plus, y'know, they're really good, so it's not like you're talking about some awful webcomic no one cares about.DivineCoffeeBinge posted:Same. 2nd issue was fun as hell too. Ok I just have to say this: every time I see Travel Foreman's name I briefly think of the horrible clone Saga Spider-man villain, Judas Traveler, for a second before my brain catches up. This is a serious medical condition and it means I can never be friends with the man.

Yeah I don't want to sound like I'm just buttering him up out of Goon Solidarity, but Vulpes' comics feel like first encountering Matt Fraction in the mid-aughts and just being shocked and delighted at the new kind of energy they brought-- like the first arc of Casanova or something. Or like-- when Al Ewing burst into Marvel seemingly out of nowhere. They all rule and for sure being paired up with such great artists doesn't hurt.AkumaHokoru posted:those trippy panels are amazing...also you guys are somehow making me hate spiderman less...I've hated him my whole life from sharing a first name to him being like a total pushover despite being loving spiderman when he isnt in the suit...but the loving multiversal spiderman stuff is really doin it for me and i dont know why Spider is a great first name.

Most totemic heroes and villains don't actually get their powers from their chosen animal like Spider-Man did.
