I think Jason Aaron wanted to tell a vampire story in Avengers. Or he had a dream about a baby Man-Thing and it was all there to justify putting that in a comic.

Metalshark posted:Speculation, but that seems like a very Al Ewing kinda lineup, and I'd definitely trust him to be aware of the importance of Sera. He was also behind America Chavez and Lisa* before that got unceremoniously undone in her solo, so he has previous for Gays in Space. He also has previously written (well, naturally) everyone but Angela already. I can believe it's an Ewing book if for no other reason than he is the only person at marvel that acknowledges the existence of Monica Rambeau

They haven't said it's Al Ewing writing it, but assuming it's Al Ewing I assume he's not going to do the whole gay/bi erasure thing.

Have both 'No ____' weekly series had the same writers? It's probably them again.

So apparently the name of the new mystery Spidey villain is Kindred. Make of that what you will.

Builder code is much more rounded, and doesn't have the uniformity of super- and sub-central character marks. The language in Black Monday Murders is much more circle/arc-based, and looks designed to be written in cursive (article is fluff, images have some examples)

Yeah, I have no problem with Peter not being a specific religion. Most characters aren't. There are a multitude of things to dunk on Slott for. This is not one of them.

At the same time, Ms. Marvel is both Muslim and universal. Also Slott has said stuff like this.

i would argue that kamala being distinctly pakistani-american, muslim, and a girl are all very much entwined with her story in a way that peter parker has not really had to deal with. and that she is hated by one segment of readership while being loved by a another often neglected demo because she not universal in the white male oriented common usage of the term

Even old white dudes like me can think Kamala is amazing despite having so little in common with her. Mind you, that requires writers who have more skill and subtlety than Dan Slott, so....

I'm sure a proper Spidey-nerd can set me right, but I have vague memories of his being raised Catholic coming up in a story drawn by either Larsen or Bagley. Possibly during the time it was revealed that he liked Elvis Costello and MJ was heavy into Guns N Roses and Hammer.

There's a site that actually has some footwork about superhero's religions and I'm pretty sure Spider-Man was Protestant there. But again unless it's important to a character's story I don't think there should be a definitive answer.

On this note I very much enjoyed the recent Spider-Man/Kamala body-swap comic that acknowledged the obvious issue of the casual/overt racism/Islamophobia Kamala would obviously endure and how lovely it is without the issue being presented TOO heavily. It also mentioned *gasp* periods without being too weird about it and entirely sidestepped the bathroom issue which I thought on one hand was a missed opportunity for jokes but on the other hand it's an all-ages book and they're obviously doing their gosh-darnedest to not sexualize Kamala. Also the thing Spider-Man was most excited about being that his joints don't hurt anymore was funny, especially now that I'm slipping into my "gently caress, my neck and lower back hurt for literally no reason" years.

There's a fun gag in a short featuring the Thing where he stops a mugger on a Jewish holiday and one of the cops making the arrest wishes Ben a Happy whichever it was (that's not disrespect I don't remember which holiday it was). The mugger pipes up. "Wait, you're jewish?" Ben replies "Yeah is that a problem?" Mugger replies "No, not at all. You just don't look like you are".
