I always liked the copy-pasta where Jonah points out that of course he knows Peter Parker is Spiderman, but that he'd never tell him because he can't have a bored Spiderman.

I hope it's just literally Ronan, again, and there's two of them for no reason. More Ronans just arrive every hour or so, and all of them go through the same process of bursting into this diner and demanding IT! It's just a conga line of Ronans. Ronans forever.

I know I shouldn't use logic here, but to be honest, all that guy did was see what he thought was a kid in a costume sneaking around a trashcan at night and play in the garbage. Disturbing, yes, but for all he knows that kid is at that age where he refuses to stop playing raccoon man, he's too into his role, he snuck out at night while his parents were sleeping (because you can't stay awake ALL night to watch the kid), and he was trying to eat his raccoon food like a real raccoon. No real sign of neglect beyond the assumed-kid having seemingly browbeaten the parents into letting him go around like that to keep his rear end manageable, and Peter himself had a look on his face like "i am dead inside" when the manager returned their son to them.

This has all been a meeting with a hosed up family with a possibly special needs son, and this manager is nothing if not understanding.

Thankfully he missed Peter's face randomly manifesting a projection of his mask for a moment in the final panel. I love how the mask is frowning, too.

We'll switch back to Spidey and Rocket for a strip or two, and then MJ'll burst onto the scene wearing Ronan's armor and wielding the Cosmirod, as the new best heroine ever.

Rocket is going to take his old spaceship parts, convert the truck into a space truck, reprogram the sentry into a space trucker (complete with space trucker hat made out of Ronan's helm), load Ronan up in the back again as cargo, and they're going to haul off into space as the new US-1 team, which will be a spin-off strip from NSM.

They're going to try to force the Sentry to injure Ronin, thus throwing it into a logic loop and breaking its programming.

It's going to end up killing Ronin, and then going nuts and beginning a nuclear meltdown, taking out half the state.

Rocket will declare it a win-win scenario, and it will go down in history as NSM's most productive day ever.

I personally thought Peter as a science teacher at a public school was the best possible status quo for him. No prestige there, not the best of salaries, but it's a reliable source of income, an "adult" kind of job and it feels like he's making a difference in the world. Pete's just never going to be a teenager again no matter how much Joe Q. wants him to, so he should be an adult we can relate to. Not some kinda embarrassing unemployed manchild or jet-setting billionaire.

Honestly, I think the best job Peter ever had was also as a teacher, but for the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning, with the more troubled students. He seemed to be in his element, teaching kids lessons, but also how to be better people, and also still going on adventures. Spider-Man and the X-Men was really, really good.

No. They drive back, get out of the cars, and say "Hello, nice folks, pleasant weather today. Have you seen a lost armadillo, about this high? Little Susie lost it, and she's just torn up about it. Says it saw an ant, and just about went nuts trying to eat it, like some sort of ant eating creature. If you see it, could you let us know? We're trying to get it back to her unharmed, it would really make her day. Thanks, Ms, Ma'am, Sir, and your special needs nephew."

Better Case Scenario: Mole Man and May get hitched without any problems and it remains canon and influences other media like Pete marrying MJ.

Betterest Case Scenario: Jacky, Clown-9.1, is also legally allowed to marry couples, and is ready and willing to do so.
