with ONE MORE DAY?!!!!!!!

you know, just cause.

personally, i'd keep MJ.

or offer up one of Elizabeth Taylor's. she's had plenty and can probably spare one or two.

One more day to revolution,
We will nip it in the bud!

They will wet themselves with blood!
 
Save the marriage, even though I don't really read Spider-Man, it seems like like a BS move to dissolve it.
 
See....he added the poll after I responded. So now my comment just looks stupid. Plus it's in the Lounge and not under the Spider-Man forum....so I assumed it was one of those general "If you had 24 hours to live...what would you do?" things.


Damn.


Ok...save the marriage. May's had a long full life. It's time for her to pass on. She is Peter's past....MJ is his future.

Same here.

I agree with this.

I'm not a complete advocate of killing MJ, but I do believe that if you're NOT going to do anything with her, then get rid of her. It's all or nothing.

Don't hem and haw and make her a piece of furniture in Spider-Man's life. Give her babies or give her a life or a REAL career (and not the pretend one she's been having since before Erik Larsen made her do Schwarzenheimer movies).

If you don't want to do any of that, THEN get rid of her.

*KEEP* the marriage. It's not really saving it in the sense of "rescuing" it.

This is one of the stupidest ideas Marvel has ever come up with. Shame on Joe Quesadilla.

yeah, sorry. didn't know where it should go.

and i believe your KB answer is still perfectly acceptable.:)
 
Also, May is old, and dying is what old people do. It's like their biggest talent.
I disagree.

George Burns was much better alive than when he became dead.

In fact, when he died, the first thing I thought was, "sell out."

This poll is unfair.

Because you're right about the marriage, but I want to vote for the retcon Joe Q option just 'cuz, too.

*Remembers being a mod*


Oh wait.... :twisted:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: that like the third time you've called him that this week.
 
wow. we don't usually get a lot of Les Miz references on this site.:)
 
I thought this thread would be about Klondike bars. Disappointing.

Retcon Joe Q. Because I can't remember a time where I liked a decision he's made.

Ever.

Seriously.
 
Y'know - I don't think ONE MORE DAY is written or illustrated particularly brilliantly. It's okay. For example, I really liked the future Parker's, even though I got annoyed that they spent two pages 'explaining' it. Really, all they needed was a line or two, not two pages.

But the idea of the storyline - I'm all for it.

Let's bypass the part of me that just thinks it's wrong to stick magic, Dr Strange, Mephisto and the rest into the world of SPIDER-MAN, the fundamental idea of the comic is: Spider-Man has to pick to save either Mary Jane or Aunt May. If he picks one, he loses the other (granted, MJ may not be 'dead', but she won't be in his life anymore).

There's some stupidity here: I don't see the need for Mephisto when all you really need is Green Goblin holding them in his hands, holding them over a bridge, and drops them both. Spidey can save only one. (Yes, it's been done before, I'm just making a point here that you don't need magic to create this situation). There's no need for the "you won't remember" bit (or retconning as it were).

But fundamentally - this comic has a really superb emotional core to it: MJ or Aunt May. It's a brilliant idea - because giving Spidey the OPTION to save Aunt May (through Mephisto) increases the emotional pain of guilt he's already feeling. Yes, it's his 'fault' Aunt May was in the firing line: but now, he can choose to kill her or save her. It's the correct emotional place to go.

I'm really impressed by that moment of crisis, and support it fully.

While I'm upset with the fact that it seems obvious that the marriage will go and Aunt May will be fine and as a result, "This will never have happened" (since they won't remember it), I don't really care. Yes - as part of the mega-continuity that is Spider-Man comics, this is rather... unwise, I can't help but feel that as a single story, it's very powerful.

So much so, that if I put myself in Spidey's shoes, I honestly don't know what to do. I can't vote.

Great stuff, Marvel.

I'll vote the Bass option anyway as it is, "Get them both! Yay!"

Exactly my problem. with the whole thing.

OMG BAAS TAHT HAS BEEN DON B4 SO MANY TIMES THAT IS SOO STUPID WTFBBQ!!!!!1111
