Characterization over the years pushed Felicia away from that, though. Though I think they made her forget he was Peter at all when they did the remasking thing, so of course it had to go back and ignore the character growth in favor of that.

Timeless Appeal posted:I wouldn't be surprised if Spider-Gwen's Peter died in a similar fashion to 616 Pete before she hooked up with party-boy Flash Thompson. So, you get this situation where Peter and Gwen are basically finding alternate versions of themselves who are mutually more capable of protecting themselves against supervillains. Nope! There's an interview on Marvel's site about it. It sounds pretty awesome. http://marvel.com/news/comics/2014/6/10/22663/on_the_edge_of_spider-verse_spider-woman

I wouldn't immediately assume it would be bad just because Hopeless is writing her. Cable and X-Force was fun, so maybe he'll go that way.

Hey, remember that Spider-Man cartoon with Iceman and Firestar you probably saw as a kid that was light-hearted? Know how it ends? The characters get brutally murdered and their pet howls in despair.

Waterhaul posted:I think that Slott goes to the Stan Lee school of working people up in a frenzy in his books so they keep reading (which as Spider-Verse continues on I'm sure people here will prove him right) but I don't think he sat there and changed his username and picture while laughing going "hahahaha that'll show people who liked an old cartoon" while twirling a mustache like he's being painted. So Dan Slott didn't know what his own book would contain and it was just a coincidence that he changed his name to that and then chose that specific avatar while going on Twitter and insulting people getting mad about the content? That's your defense here?

And you can compare Hickman to this when he shows the Cabal brutally murdering the Super Hero Squad universe while they laugh about how innocent the place is. Until then, nope.

radlum posted:EDIT: Just read Edge of Spider-Verse; SP//dr is one cool idea. I don't care much about anime, but Evangelion inspired Spider-Girl with Anime Daredevil as sidekick is very interesting concept. I fear that the more interesting Spider-People are gonna end up eaten by Morlun and we'll lose out on very cool concepts I'd say SP//dr is safe because of Gerard Way and Marvel would love to have him do more for them, so wouldn't kill off the first character he created for them. And we know Spider-Gwen is safe too.

Haven't seen her. Though it's probably for the best if you have alternate versions that you are fond of not being used. Like we haven't seen Earth X Peter and Mayday. Or Spider-Phoenix.

So we know Captain Universe Spidey will probably die because that'll be the old "oh poo poo we're doomed!" moment, but I'd really laugh if then Spider-Phoenix came out and wiped out Morlun and company in one panel. Then brings every Spider back to life.

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.

I'm pretty sure they can't kill off Newspaper Spider-Man because it's still being published. Not that Slott decided he couldn't do it. Same way they won't kill off the animated Spider-Man in Ultimate Spider-Man.

Yeah, it definitely feels like they're "Batgirling" her up. It's a good design though, even if I agree that it doesn't seem like something Jessica would wear.

When I was a kid I'd try to buy first appearance comics of characters I like or just fill out backissues of my favorite comics. I think I spent like $50 for the Sword of Azrael series because I liked him and liked Joe Quesada's art. That was a lot for a kid!

But still, my point is Slott is so enamored with his own pet characters that he wanted the BIGGEST SPIDER-MAN EVENT EVER to not even have Peter Parker in it. Otto as Spider-Man is pretty much Slott's fantasy fulfillment and his Mary Sue character, it's disgusting.

Skwirl posted:Has any character in any comic referred to Spider-Gwen as "Spider-Gwen"? While I like the name I think it's like Spock where only people on the internet use it. It's the name of the title of the book so that's how she'll be referred to by fans and media. She's Spider-Woman in the comics themselves, I believe. They were originally going to name the title Gwen Stacy: Spider-Woman but probably changed it to avoid confusion with the other Spider-Woman title, and because Spider-Gwen was already popularized by the audience. But yeah, in her own comics I'm pretty sure she'll be called Spider-Woman.

Hopeless has some things that really annoy me. Like last issue when he had an actual female character say they weren't going to be fridged. It was a terrible line and he's super clumsy with his 4th wall poo poo. I wish he would avoid that and just write. I really enjoyed his X-Men Season One graphic novel.

JohnnyCanuck posted:I laughed at the line. It was clever. How is it clever? Unless Gwen knows she's a comic book character it's a lovely line the author forced in to try to be hip and meta. If your girlfriend or wife get murdered you're not going to say they got fridged. Because it's a term used for comic book characters.

The Question IRL posted:The story was always going to have elements of fun in it. It's not like in the middle of a serious domestic violence storyline, Gwen makes fridging jokes. Because "fridging" is a term used to describe something in comics or other forms of media. What Gwen was essentially saying was "An alternate version of me was killed off by writers to add drama and motivation to the male hero by choosing to have me thrown off a bridge." So unless you're fine with calling real life murders of women that affects men as them getting fridged, it's a clumsy and hackneyed attempt at being meta.

quote:“With any story where you give people what they want—there’s a difference, as a storyteller, between what your readers want and what your readers need. In a good Peanuts story, you want Charlie Brown to kick that football. But if Charlie Brown kicks the football, it’s over!” says Slott. “All the best stories in serialized fiction–it’s always about teasing the greatest wishes and wants, but monkey-pawing it. Always giving you what you want, but not the way you want it.” This guy is supposed to be a professional writer?
