I don't care if Forbush Man stole Spider-Man's costume and is now running around using the identity. It's Dan Slott writing it, so it doesn't matter, it's going to suck either way.

It's almost like most people will buy Spider-Man when it is the only "real" Spidey book on the market, no matter who is writing it, or something.

Hey I've got a random Spider-Man question: What's the deal with Chameleon's face? Is there a reason it's white and has a snake nose? Is that a mask? What's the deal?

So is it a mask or is his face just naturally mannequin style?

Happy Noodle Boy posted:God, no. I love Allred as much as anyone else but Spider-Man would not be a good book for him. The only thing he'd have to work on is the sense of speed Spider-Man has, which doesn't really come across in any of his work I've seen. His action would have to be a bit more dynamic. But I could deal with that not being perfect just for the tone his work sets.

Facepalm Ranger posted:You know foes is getting cancelled. No reason for it to stick around after the end of superior. Plus everyone is coming down from the hawk eye craze (I'm sorry but when I read 1-5 of Hawkeye I wanted it to go away as fast as possible) and superior foes is 100% riding on the coat tails of that. The reason for it to stick around would be that it is a very good book. Also your Hawkeye opinions are bad, and you are a bad person because of them.

I really wish Dan Slott would get off the book because I miss reading Spider-Man. This Spider-Verse stuff is at least giving me some side books to read, but I miss the main book and it's all actually just making me bummed.

It was so different that other comics, it would be a great comic to draw girls in too. The art was great, everything was great. Putting O'Mally anywhere near it would be the quickest way to get me to stop caring about this hypothetical book possible. Well maybe other than Slott or Loeb writing it.

CharlestheHammer posted:Well it isn't shocking, didn't they just do the same thing to Spider-man 2099? Spider-Man 2099 hasn't had his own series for years, and when he did it had a fairly long run. Bringing him to the current time at least gives us some good fish out of water stuff with an established character that otherwise wouldn't have been used for anything. Neither Miles or Spider-Gwen have had series that have gone on for all that long, and Miles at least is still being used in his own series. I could see both of them in like, 5-10 years being brought to the 616 and having good runs, but it's just way too early.

TwoPair posted:I thought the joke about how old cartoon Spider-Man literally couldn't come up with words to describe how bad things were was funny. Sue me. I think people were more mad at which version of Spider-Man they chose to give the violent death to than it happening at all. If it had been like, Spider-Man India or something no one would have cared because he wasn't literally a happy go lucky, fun version of the character for kids that a lot of people grew up with.

OGB posted:That does bring up an interesting point - perhaps the reason why Spider-Verse is happening now, and all of these alternate Spider-Men are getting killed off is because the end game of Hickman's Avengers may be to wipe out the multiverse during Secret Wars anyway. I'm going to guess it's the exact opposite, and the multiverse gets somehow brought back to where it was before the incursions started or something. So Slott can jerk off while murdering the Amazing Friends because it's the only way he can feel anything anymore and it doesn't actually matter because it's going to be reset in some way by Hickman anyway.

Die Laughing posted:Would you say your hate boner is directly proportional to Slott's murder boner? I haven't read Amazing since it relaunched. And I didn't read any of Superior. I keep up with what's happening here, and Spider-Verse sounded interesting to me to the point where if it was getting good buzz here I was thinking of starting again. Then it turned into Slott murders all fun Spider-Men so I quickly changed my mind on that one. I'm not one of the people who talks constantly about how he hates a thing yet continues to support it financially.

Saying Slott can write Spider-Man well actually seems worse to me than saying he can't. It means he could be writing something good, but has, for some reason, chosen to write absolute bullshit for several years instead. I think the flukes/he ran out of good stories thing is probably more accurate.

Like, instead of a proud anarchist leader standing up to the cartoony fascist cops, it was a confused old man. Then a child died I guess. Wow, how fun! I have the first printing of the issue of Reign where you can see Spider-Man's dick.

Lurdiak posted:Well see that's kind of at the core of it. While the Avengers have never been "the best of the best" per se, they are still a prestigious team, while Spidey's character had been focused so long on being an outcast and an underdog. JMS handled him joining the Avengers really well, actually, framing it as him finally getting recognition for the cumulative impressive poo poo and heroic deeds he's performed over the years. It fit nicely into how he was finding his place in his personal life and generally growing up. It felt like he was coming home. No, wait. Tell me again what happened next after this, him getting back together with his wife, getting a steady job, etc. What was the next thing that happened, again?
