Mockingbird is better than Silk. But Silk is good. I don't read Gwenpool but I doubt it's better than Mockingbird.

Not saying any of these are better, but Ms. Marvel and Squirrel Girl are also great, Marvel is killing it on the lady books.

I think it was a huge mistake to bring Norman back and retcon him into having been an evil guy even before he turned into the Goblin. We got some fun stories out of it but it essentially just turned the character into a generic evil businessman first and the Green Goblin second, and completely invalidated the emotional punch of all those old stories. It removes the tragedy inherent in the character.

Wasn't disagreement over The Green Goblin's identity at least partially responsible for Steve Ditko leaving both Spider-Man and Marvel?

Yes but there is one character who comes back every clone saga. Without fail she is there.

She wasn't dead the first time. This is like the fifth clone saga.

The answer is Gwen Stacy, because sigh.

I don't understand the point of bringing back Gwen Stacy when Spider-Gwen is running around. (Did they kill her?)

I can't stand comic movies - any of them, any universe - where the first drat thing that happens to the protagonist is their secret identity gets tossed right out the window.

Either through "investigation" or them straight-up confessing.

If they're playing it like it was with Miles, they share a dormitory together, kind hard to keep your identity secret from someone you sleep in the same room as every night.

First goddman thing about Spider-man is his spider-sense warns him when his identity is going to be discovered.

Yeah, and when he's in class and Ganke is digging through his stuff to find the porn they shoplifted together and instead finds web-shooters and a costume.

Poor Miserable Gurgi posted:

Peter Parker is the most recognizable comic book name behind Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne, so we likely won't see Miles in a movie until there's a Peter Spider-Man that sticks. It was probably a conscious choice to use the newer and less buried in continuity Miles origin and stick in Peter. Also, the cynical explanation of Peter being white, which produces still feel is a safer bet. Black Panther is the first non-white Marvel hero with his own movie, isn't he? And he's not even African-American.

It woulda been great to see all the racists who insist they only dislike Miles because he's replacing Peter freak out over a black Peter.

We already saw that when Donald Glover wanted to be Peter Parker before they cast Andrew Garfield.

Turns out her role as MJ had nothing for her to work with.

This is like 90% of the roles offered to women, and then something like Fury Road comes along and you have a bunch of complaints about the focus spent on Academy Award winner Charlize Theron.

Technically (although this was a change made for the movie) Blade is British.
Or if he was filling out the census form White/Black British.

The original question was just asking if Black Panther was the first non-white Marvel hero to get their own film.

The red and blue on his forearm look weird. Without any clear markings between them, those two colours mixed like with the musculature make it look like an anatomy figure.

And that mouth, what the gently caress?

Does anybody at Marvel remember when Bagley was good at making costumes? No, of course not, because there was never a time.

Thunderbolts?

I kinda wish they'd just go with Ben's original Scarlet Spider costume, yes it was lame, but it was an endearing lame.

They are half the reason I stopped reading the comic, so I couldn't say. Mister Negative was around until 2015 but I'm not sure he's been in anything after that. Paper Doll appeared in like... one story and that was about it? Freak's last appearance was over 70 issues past I think. If I am forgetting someone, then good.

Mr Negative popped up in the most recent run of Amazing.

But thanks to the publishing schedule Slott has nearly as many issues.

Bendis/Bagley already beat the Lee/Kirby record for most issues by writer/artist team for the initial run of Ultimate, he should just quit and be satisfied with that.

Wasn't UXM a Mark Millar joint? Bendis wrote like one arc in year 4 or so?

Mark Millar wrote UXM at the the start and for a good chunk, I don't think that book really went downhill until Kirkman started writing it, and I didn't even hate his stuff that much at the start of the run. Brian K. Vaughn wrote it for a bit and even Chuck loving Austen had a pretty good issue.

Ultimate Doom was terrible. Was he the first misstep in the Ultimate line, or was Ultimate X-Men already loving up?

Ultimatum and Jeph Loeb on Ultimates 3 was when the line started really turning to dog poo poo. There's still some gems in the later stuff Hickman's Ultimates was amazing, (if sadly cut short because they realized Hickman was too good a writer to have on a book nobody read), pretty much anything written by Warren Ellis, that weird poo poo written by Fiarkov (sp?), Ultimate Spider-Ham.
