WTF?? I'm glad i don't buy spider-man...
Man wth was the other? Nothing, nothing changed...okay he ate a dude, so what? Everyone does that once in a while in Marvel. He died and he got back the same way, it was just gross. He is the same way... just had a little trip and saw a giant spider... Even DirishB does that!! It was lame, very very lame.

It wasn't just any spider, it was The Spider. Is he a spider wanting to be a man? or a man wanting to be a spider?Ultimate Quicksilver said:

It does. The Other has been terrible. So many things unexplained (and that's a MAJOR pet peeve of mine), things just thrown out, the lack of the proper emotions, awful story telling (mostly on Hudlin's part. I mean really, AUNT MAY AND MJ IN OLD IRON MAN SUITS FIGHTING DOOM BOTS?!?! WTF!!!).UltimateE said:

It was one of the most retarded things I've ever seen in a comic book.
To be fair, I think it was in MK Spidey, not Amazing. It wasn't written by JMS anyway.

Then there are stupid scenes in the artwork, too, like MK:SM 21, when MJ goes into the bathroom. She leans against a bath that is about the same height as a small boot. The tiolet is the same, too. Is everyone in the MArvel U really small, bar MJ?
No, they aren't Pat, so wise-up.
Even tho JMS wrote, it #21 was a complete waste of an issue, now that I get round to it. We spend a whole issue with MJ crying. What a crock of ****.
If Aunt May ever really got into a suit, I'm sure she'd ahve a heart attack. Seriously, what a load of crap.UltimateE said:

Hudlin wrote that, remember, you started a thread about it? But each writer wrote all the titles for a month, so JMS wrote the last MK:SM.UltimateE said:

Yeah, in the preview, that's not "gliding", like JMS said it would be. A person that's gliding can't fall 20 stories and then pull himself into a horizontal drift five feet above the ground. That's flying. Spider-Man doesn't fly. What's the point in web-swinging when he can fly?

HAHA. Preview pages reveal Spider-Man can now fly as a result of getting a new costume... Cool, huh? :lol: Marvel tries too hard, I think.

Re: Amazing Spider-Man series discussion (spoilers)
It would seem logical for him to have rocket boots. After all, it pretty much is an Iron Man suit minus the rocket boots, so he should have just thrown them in. But that would reduce the spider quality (as if it hasn't been reduced already, right, Joey? :roll: ), so naturally the rocket boots aren't included.
God, I hate Civil War.

Re: Amazing Spider-Man series discussion (spoilers)
hm.
I read the most recent issue, and I have got to say the following....
a) I may disagree with the directions JMS takes in the series, but he never loses track of peter's character. He ****s around with what the series should cover, and how his supporting cast and his life mess around with his mind... He may retcon meaningless sex into a meaningful relationship... He may turn Peter's powers into magic/psychic whatever-the-**** they are now nonsense... but whatever crap he's thrown in the Peter's way, Peter has always been Peter. He's always been characterized really well under JMS, and this new arc seems to be shaping up to be a good read, since the plot isn't in JMS' hands.
b) I love that Peter is becoming Tony Stark's personal assistant. It fits very well with Tony's current characterization, and it also provides a good explanation for Peter's new costume. It's essentially beefing up Peter to be able to back up the kind of threats Iron Man can face... Its also a bribe of sorts... In other words, its temporary. Like, planned into continuity temporary. Marvel is pulling the same sort of crap DC did with Superman... they'll pull out the classic costume at the proper moment for dramatic effect.
c) Peter Parker is still the most likable character in 616

The suit ideas are kinda interesting but not really.

I really hate the suit now. Saying it can change colors to look like other costumes or camoflague, okay. But making it turn invisible? No that's just dumb and too unbelievible. Cause if that happened his hair would be right up nagainst his head, it just... no.

Re: Amazing Spider-Man series discussion (spoilers)
This is really ****ing dumb.
There's a scene in #529 where Spidey asks Iron Man how come MJ's arm was broken by Morlun, yet she was fine straight away. Iron Man then says, "I fixed it" (with a proper explanation) and then Spidey and Iron Man LOOK AT US. Basically they're saying, "Stop being so nitpicky".
So where was the scene where Iron Man asks Spidey, "So... what about that terminal illness?" and Spidey goes, "Er... I wrote Babylon 5. Leave me alone."
Sorry, but this pissed me off so ****ing much, it's not funny.
Also, in #530, there's a moment where the Editor's comments that go, "Check out #456 for more information" argue with itself (a yellow and blue one).
This with the above tongue-in-cheek is fine for say, Nextwave, but horrifically inappropriate here. It. Just. Doesn't. Fit. At. All. In fact, it's detrimental, since the issues is continually trying to point out how dark and serious things are going to be - even though we have editors mentioning Quesada and arguing. Seriously, it's reading like JMS doesn't care what happens anymore. It feels like he's just making it up as he goes along.
It's terrible.
And the new costume has even more powers. I can't remember most of them anymore.
