Or Aracely!

I really wish that in all of the Superior stuff we could've at least had SpOck meet her.

Yeah but it's one thing tricking the X-men and the Avengers into not mindreading him, and another very different to try and stop Aracely from doing so.

Kinda wanna see a What If? where Aracely comes with Kaine to meet Peter and ends up convincing Ock to give the body back, then Amazing Scarlet Spider Family Adventures :allears:

Peter finding out Dock's been doing it with Anna, and she finding out SpOck was gonna propose is hilarious, but not enough to drop more cash into this.

I was really excited over Peter coming back because I thought Avenging Spider-man would be re-renamed and i'd be able to read Peter in a monthly comic. Then it just wasn't announced ever.

Miles Morales:, New Warriors and 2099, tho. Decent time to be a Spidey fan.

I'm reading through the second grade of Scarlet Spider now, and really enjoying it, but there's one issue that ends off with "continued in Minimum Carnage!" I've already skipped past it to keep going through the trade but is Minimum Carnage worth reading?

Also, once I'm done the Scarlet Spider trades what should be next if I want his continuing adventures? I see mixed reviews about New Warriors.

You're better off reading issue 12 than Minimum Carnage, issue 12's included in the trade, but the recap page is all you need and it's also possibly The Best Issue.

Who's the Spider-Man holding a chocolate bar? 1967 cartoon? Newspaper comic? Electric Company? Dear god, I hope Electric Company Spidey makes an appearance.

No Japanese Spider-Man on that cover, disappointing. I hope the reason we haven't seen any of him yet is so that he can show up at the very end during the final battle and save the day with his giant robot.

In fact, screw having a coherent story entirely. I just want an endless series of vignettes starring a bunch of obscure Spideys. That would probably be better than what we're more likely to get.

I think they confirmed Japanese Spider-man in the Spider-verse panel. There's also gonna be a team-up mini with random Spideys (they didn't say which team-ups they'll be, but it can apparently be combinations like Miles and Spider-ham)

Newspaper comic and 1967 cartoon Spideys team up and stupid their way to save the day :allears:

I am sad Armor Spider-Man died because I remember as a kid thinking that it was the raddest poo poo ever after seeing it on the 90s cartoon. Also because that Peter was basically Iron Man. Oh well...

Now that I'm thinking about the 90s cartoon I can only hope that 90s animated Spider-Man is recruited and immediately has to be saved from falling to the ground once he learns that webbing has to actually connect to things in other universes rather than just flying up into the sky to grapple onto nothing.

Oh man, that Peter owned :allears: He had Gwen, Ben, the Osborns and a Mech.

90s cartoon Spider-man has to be unable to punch anyone, and whenever he does something the same Oscorp wall at night time has to blow up.

You guys are making me want to marathon Spider-Man TAS...

I don't think I can read ASM anymore it's just not worth it. The art's meh at best, the writing is God-awful.

I remember reading Arkham Asylum: Living Hell and just being in love with Slott's work. Where did he go so wrong? What the gently caress happened? He turned into a manchild who can't take critics on Twitter and a bad author in comics.

There's always Spider-man 2099 where he fantasizes of solving his problems by throwing people out of windows. Never followed Slott closely, but I think the consensus is that it all started on the later half of his She-Hulk run where he became continuity cop and then wrote the nothingness that was Mighty Avengers.

Is this really going to be a thing? Please say yes.

I generally enjoyed Edge of Spider-Verse, especially this one, but all of them except the Spider-Gwen one had the problem where they started telling a story, then abruptly veered into the less interesting crossover plot. I wouldn't have minded spending two or three more issues in that weird Marvel-meets-Gainax world.
"One story in "Spider-Verse Team-Up" sees Miles Morales and the Spidey from the current "Ultimate Spider-Man" cartoon teaming up to rescue Spider-Man from the 1960s cartoon."
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=56244

This is why the main stuff with Slott leaves such a bad taste in mouth, over on that side of the crossover is "MORLUN KILLS THE SPIDEY YOU LIKE!" and over on the tie-in side so far it's "Look at these different Spideys having adventures in their interesting universes, ending on meeting more Spideys to team-up with!"

Oh my God this is awesome. I started out with Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends so this is something new to me. I love how they apparently said Spider-Man couldn't hit anyone so he just ended up running away a lot and got tired. Also his spider-sense just kind of disappeared halfway through. Loved it.

People hating on Dan Slott, I completely understand as his current ASM stuff is loving awful and his attitude on Twitter is worse...but I have one question. How did you feel about the Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions game because Slott wrote that.

Spidey 2099 was written terribly. The banter is pretty excellent and the plot very simple and fun.
When Slott keeps stuff like that he's pretty good, but if he tries to get somewhat serious then we get garbage.

That's who we thought it was, but Slott is throwing a CURVE BALL and saying his identity is a secret.

Which means it's Uncle Ben and his death will spurn our Peter on to victory.

That Uncle Ben's death should make Peter go all gurren lagann on the Leopardon and make it galaxy-sized to defeat Morlun.
