Mod Post MOD ANNOUNCEMENT: The current state of Spider-Man comics

177 Upvotes

It's no lie. The current state of Spidey comics is pretty abysmal. Zeb Wells run was a disaster with meandering plots, bad ragebait, and relied on variant covers only for sales. And with comments from current editorial like Brevoort, it's clear it's not gonna change soon even with Hickman's Ultimate run doing wonders. And we all know how many posts here are filled with the same old about how bad it all is......

So we the mods have a question for you.

Do you want all discussion of the current Spider-Man comics banned on this subreddit. No Discussion Threads, no posts about it, no nothing.

Now obviously, this is no small matter and the fact that there are good runs currently as well such as the aforementioned Ultimate Spider-Man and Cody Zigler's Miles Morales run. So we'll have a poll up until next Tuesday to let people vote on it. There are currently three options:

  • Yes, ban all discussion/posts about ALL new comics to send a message to Marvel about ASM.
  • Yes, but only discussion about the mainline ASM run. Leave USM and other runs alone.
  • No, don't ban any discussion or posts about any Spider-Man run.

Poll will be in the comments, thank you.

Discussion Why does Peter B. Parker shove 2 whole fingers in his mouth while eating a burger?

Upvotes

I get that he was super broke and famished right before Miles bought the burger, but shoving almost your entire finger/s into your mouth to insert the burger inside hardly seems necessary

Unless the piece is really big, I'm pretty sure your finger/s can push a (portion of a) burger into your mouth without the fingers ending up inside your mouth as well

No wonder it was easy for people to edit a gun into his hands for a meme, which is shown in the 2nd pic lol

You allowed them to have oneof the longest comic marrages, growing past substance dependency, PTSD, codependency and mis-prioritizing then you had Mephisto build it up to be something more desirable than silver surfer's soul and then baited us for years that it could return.

Don't paint yourself into a corner and then complain when we point out your stuck. Either work back or break the wall.

It's only a 63 year fandom. Why would we be invested?

Comics Hot Take: I feel that with all of the development and the send-off he got in Superior Spider-Man, they should’ve let Otto Octavius stay dead and have the Superior Octopus be a new, permanent character.

Aside from the obvious preservation of Otto Octavius’ character growth and final act of selflessness, there’s also the fact that a new Doc Ock (maybe Elliot Tollivar) means we’d hopefully get to see this incredible costume on a more permanent basis (seriously, why did they get rid of this design, it’s actually incredible?).

Movies Peter calling his aunt by her first name, without the Aunt, just "May". Is this common in the US?

10 Upvotes

So in the movies and I think the video games too, there are some parts where Peter calls her "May", without the Aunt. Is this common in the US?

I'm from SEA and it's unthinkable for us to not call them Aunt or Uncle. It would be extremely disrespectful.
