I love how he has all these spider based abilities, and then out of loving nowhere he has precognition. Because that is what it is, it's not like he has some sort of hyper-sense subconscious understanding of danger about to happen or some such. Nope, he's just flat out psychic. Dude knew when Thanos killed half of all life. Why? Spider radiation makes you magic.

To be fair, back for most of his history when his Shooters were artificial and he didn't have crazy spider-powers added... were his powers really all that spidery? Super-strength/reflexes and the ability to climb walls. Pretty drat general. He could've been, like, gecko-man.

Yeah, pretty sure these days in Marvel when you get a superpower you've just gotta go through a list of animals until you hit one that hasn't been used and run with it.

Goddamn, the last picture just points out how goddamn enormous Hemsworth plus the costume is. It's too easy to forget in the movies 'cos Cap is so tall too.

edit: That first one has an example of the Briticisms that sneak into the comic. At the beginning of Riot at Xavier's, a girl tells Quire to "get a mobile" (phone). I just like to imagine these students are actually British.

If it was properly British they would've been playing Cluedo. :colbert:

To be fair if you're a mutant with super-healing (which I assume that he was if his blood healed her) then it makes sense he can't.

Atheists don't exist in the Marvel Universe since God can 100% be proven to exist. Several people have his phone number. And miracles literally happen daily and are reported on CNN. And even if you don't believe in the Christian God, the rest of the religious pantheon will be happy to come down and beat you into believing.

The definition of 'atheist' in the Marvel universe is probably someone who believes that all of these so-called deities are just advanced aliens who operate on a different physical rulebook, rather than Gods.

Then there's a whole semantic and philosophical argument about what a 'god' actually is blah blah etcetera.

This was addressed in the Waid run, the Authoritative Action arc. Most Latverians like Doom. He has all of their necessities taken care of - food, utilities, health care, etc. They are safe from all the civil wars and hostile neighbors without even needing a military because no one will mess with Doom. Reed compares the Doom-Latverian relationship to a human-pets one. Its basically utopian totalitarianism, a pocket kingdom where Doom runs everything and disappears and executes those who don't go along with it, but every need is met and the people like it.

Oh, so it's Singapore.

That's always been the one weird thing I've never felt was adequately explained is that for all his supposed time spent with his head in the books or peering through a microscope or out being Spider-Man Peter is somehow more of a pop culture encyclopedia than your average TMZ intern.

He's young, don't you know that bestows you an automatic knowledge of all current pop culture.

Did anyone ever ask Peter to come sit down? It's a little awkward talking to a grown man having a pity party because their boss says mean things about them. Their choice to be in the fetal position half way up a 30ft wall really can't be helping.

Don't some artists run with him just casually hanging out on the wall or corner or roof anyway, so it's not necessarily a pity party thing anymore?

While it's a shame because I'd love to see George Clooney curse with reckless abandon, I'm sure Sam Jackson would be more than willing to curse his way through a movie again, and now seems the right time to do a Nick Fury movie.
