Superior was only decent when it was in non-Slott hands. So if you've got to give him credit, give him credit for the initial idea. Cause holy fuckballs I hated just about everything about him in the superior series.

Slott just really hates Peter Parker being Peter Parker, I guess.

My only issue with the premise is that Slott's the one doing it. I was against the Superior Spider-Man premise at first until better writers made him fun. I was against the regression back to relatively normal Peter because of the way Slott made it happen. Spider-Verse was fun because the premise was fun and I could read other stories while Slott dorked around the main one. This new premise isn't bad on its own merits, but Slott just hasn't clicked with me yet and I'm worn down on seeing his name everywhere. It's pretty much a matter of preference, as opposed to the shenanigans of OMD which was dumb inside and out and I don't think I'll ever see how that was supposed to work.

CharlestheHammer posted:I can't for the life of me see what y'all see in this. It strips everything that makes the character remotely interesting and replaces it with pure dullness. I guess they're giving the Peter Parker experience to Miles now. Not that I'm complaining, but how they refer to him as New York's Spider-Man I figure it's something like that.

It just dawned on me that Peter is basically trying to be like a good Norman Osbourne. Got too tied up in the Stark comparisons, I suppose.

Scarlet Spider not being handled by Yost is concerning. Scarlet Spider being handled by Slott puts me on suicide watch. God drat you, Slott.

Amazing Spiderman HAS been good, this is true. But I still don't trust him tinkering with other characters.

I am more open to a "Let's see a crappy side of Peter Parker" story when it takes this approach. The Superior Spidey approach wasn't as enjoyable to me, even if other writers did have some good fun with it.

Regent already had his time in the spotlight with the stupid sad sack Spidey mini series, I don't know why we have to revisit the exact same story but this time with Iron Man. Oh well, whatever. Just get it over with, Slott.

Yeah, despite my bitching this is still the first chapter I've actively disliked. So I'm still pretty pleased overall with the run so far.

I tend to agree with you overall on all points. I tried my absolute damndest to like all new ultimates, but it was complete trash. I think I was reading it at the name time I was reading...i think it was New Warriors, with Kaine and Speedball and crew, and reading these two super team mini series was like night and day. One was drawn well, funny and exciting, the other looked like poo poo and never did anything I enjoyed. I'd like to have 1610 Jessica Drew back, but that would be a very hard thing to make happen, I think.

The only warning I give for reading Miles Spider-Man is beware if you're not a fan of the venom blast. It doesn't bother me too much, but it does others and I totally get why.

X-O posted:Mockingbird is better than Silk. But Silk is good. I don't read Gwenpool but I doubt it's better than Mockingbird. Glenpool started strong, but right now I think it's kinda in between arcs. The next issue or two I expect things to pick up. But really, for Gwenpool ymmv depending on how goofy and meta you want your leads.

JohnnyCanuck posted:It looks like they're undoing all the reformation the symbiote went through in this bridge series. And doing so in the worst way possible. I admit I haven't read as much of Venom's stuff as I probably would have liked to over the years, but coming from Flash to this new series has been absolutely awful. It really reads like some edgy 13 year old's fanfiction, and not in a funny way.

I'm still just sitting here though. The dad subplot took up so much time of each Miles adventure. So drat much. Was the whole thing just a badly written, badly executed excuse for this current family drama? Was Miles being found out not enough for Bendis? Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
