Monaghan posted:Even as a young Kid I knew that maximum carnage was bad.The fact that i most of the villains are beaten by Deathlok making a "good bomb" out of nowhere that saves the day was just so lame. Yeah. And the game's soundtrack was rad. I do remember having my tiny mind blown that Iron Fist could also do the Iron Fist thing but with a kick, although who knows if that was actually a mistake they made and nobody cared to correct it. I also remember that the big MJ subplot was 'she's stressed so she's smoking!'

Crossover events like Maximum Carnage were kind of strange for me growing up because I never had access to about 2/3 of the titles the event would crossover with, so I would pick up a random issue of Amazing Spiderman and see "to be continued in Web/Spectacular/whatever" and never read the next issue. Also as a young kid I would just pick up random issues whenever I would happen to be at the newstand so I would just have random "part 3 of 12/part 8 of 12 etc". I think my childhood brain just tried to fill in the blanks with whatever my imagination could conjure up. I am kind of curious just to read Maximum Carnage now and see how close I was in what I was thinking was going on.

On the MJ smoking thing, she definitely smokes weed right? Like she was a party girl and then lived in California. And she's (not) married to Spider-Man so that's gotta be stressful.

X-O posted:I was bought a Venom toy for Christmas one year and it poured black slime out of a straw inserted into his chest. It was a lovely toy and contributed to my dislike of symbiotes. I had that toy too, and like every toy that had some sort of play slime (Ghostbusters, Ninja Turtles), the slime was taken away from me because my mom said it would get stuck in the carpet and stain stuff. There was also that Punisher figure which was an awkward cap gun. I had to play with those outside, and that's where I learned I could just smash the whole roll of caps with a hammer and it was very satisfying.

We used rocks for the caps that came with the Robocop figures.

Marijuana was strictly still the Devil's Weed and would have mandated a Very Special Issue and not just 'The Surgeon General says this gives you cancer, MJ!' or whatever. I think it was supposed to tie in to Peter being happy Ben took over as Spidey down the line but I feel like that's me getting the timeline all wrong. Most likely it was just something random for MJ To do as it was over in Spectacular she actually got real subplots (admittedly, very soap opera-y ones, but comics).

How about the other 90’s MJ subplot of her being offered a movie role, but it includes a nude scene?

Big talk from a country that banned Kinder Eggs because you're too stupid not to swallow the capsule inside.

What about dill pickle or all dressed? HMM?? In movie "news" James Gunn had a Q+A on Insta and had this come out among other many cool things. GoTG 3 will be the "end" of this story arc and these characters but he's somewhat open to more but only if needed. Takes place after Endgame and Thor 4 I believe. Holiday special is before.
