Of all the crisis Spiderman has had in his career of a super hero (boy, theres been a lot!) which one do you think was the worst?

Personally I think its the death of his Uncle. It shifted his life around to become the person best to his abilities. He thinks of him constantly and never let go his death, but did not let his death swallow him.

Spidey's worst crisis? Facing and enduring his 1994 - 2008 period of continuity.

Seriously, though, I think it was the death of Gwen Stacy. Uncle Ben could have been saved if Peter had acted. Gwen died specifically because she loved Peter Parker.* She could only have been spared if he never knew her and loved her as he did. It transformed Spider-Man, in Peter's eyes, from a noble mission.. into an ever-present curse on the lives of all those close to Peter Parker, as well.

* As far as Peter knew.

The events of Revelations is my pick, maybe even the events of Maximum Garbage as well

We need a poll here

Revelations. Finding out the one responsible for the Gwen thing WhiteSpider mentioned is in fact still alive when you thought him dead... having your best friend and brother be killed in front of your eyes by said person....losing your baby girl... and oh yeah, finding out the last year or so of your life has been a total mind ****.

Definately the Clone Saga and the events surrounding it (Osborn, robo-parents, Ben Reilly, symbiote madness etc..). Easily.

I dont know, I personally think the whole Venom thing was pretty bad. I mean, Venom when he was first introduced coulda pretty much ****ed up Pete's life hard.

Pretty much until Venom turned all "good" you know Parker had to be thinking "wow, I could go back to Aunt Mays house and see her, and MJ slaughtered". If that isn't a crisis...

^^^^

He had alot of allies than, and a few people knew his identity already, plus Brock had the whole no "innocents" clause in his super villian contract.......

..........Imagine what he felt during that brief time period where the Goblin first cornered him outside Aunt May's house(ASM 39) :eek:

I think his greatest crisis has been having to endure his origin being rewritten so that he could stab people and eat their heads and junk...then when he had to die and be reborn....then get a new costume so that he can fly...and then he had to deal with his Uncle ben coming back from the dead....

Pretty much, he's currently going through his biggest crisis: CRAPPY WRITING.

Spider-Man's worst crisis was being betrayed by "fans" and "writers" and being perverted into something he's not by these small-minded, selfish trolls.

It's a crisis he didn't survive.

You're right....you're so much better than us because you don't post on comic-book message boards....

Wait a minute....you are posting on a comic book message board, aren't you? I guess you need to shut the hell up, then, huh? :D

Wow, more name calling in this forum too? You're pathetic man...seriously.

Spidey's biggest crisis WAS named here. His total destruction of concept by CRAPPY WRITING and Editors.

Well, then, junior, I guess the stories in the comics being utter crap for the past five years or so would fall into that category, now, wouldn't it? Moron.

I know someone who's post could use some..."editoring".

I guess I do need to share some of the blame here though. During my five year stint at Marvel, I had my fair share of bombs. Peter finding out that he was the lone survivor of an alien planet; Uncle Ben returning as a lovable leprechaun to help teach Peter valuable lessons at the end of each issue; and let's not forget Spider-America, when Spider-Man was killed, resurrected, and then taken under the wing of Captain America, his "father figure" for that arc. You have to admit, though, the "Stars-and-Stripes-Spidey" costume was awesome!

Dude, the fanboys just didn't understand your work. I mean the sales were huge for the Stars and Stripes Spidey arc. Plus we had mutiple printings with multiple covers for the survivor of a lone planet issues. ;)

Ok, I confess I'm to blame too. I never should have written that arc where its revealed that Peter borrow a time machine created by Iron Man and travelled back in time and is in fact the father of Flash Thompson. I mean it was shocking and turned Spidey's world upside down (plus the sales jumped by 3000) but it was wrong.;)

:eek: That was you? Man that story did suck, the art was great though :up:. And it still was better than that other arc where Spidey becomes an herald of Galactus and travels in space by web-swinging on comets.

You should see what I did during my run on The Fantastic Four. That arc where I revealed Sue to be a Lesbian and that she was divorcing Reed to shack up with the Black Cat (our special guest star) almost caused fans to burn down the building.:)

Yeah, I remember that one. when I first read it, I shocked the whole crowd at mcdonalds by yelling "I knew it! I knew it!" or was it because I was spanking my stinger over the artwork again? :D Anyway I always knew Sue and Felicia were meant for each other. I mean, you made it so darn obvious that they're truly soulmates.

And I did the "editoring" of that arc and I'll tell you, what Larry wrote that I had to take out, because of the comics code at the time, is still in my sock drawer, and you're not getting it back Lar, you probably wouldn't want it back anyway. :D

HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAAHAHA!!!

Thanks....it's not often that a troll verbally beats himself into submission!!! You need to go back and do some "editoring" to your posts so as not to fall "under the affect" of your blatant stupidity!!

Yeah....I remember my Spidey story that my "editoring" totally messed up...

It was the one that had Peter unemployed and washing dishes. He then broke a magical Bettie Page Shot Glass, and was then given the totemistic powers of Bettie Page....but not just her, all the Bettie Pages that had come before her!! He grew two very round and voluptuous stingers out of his chest, and he donned a new Spider-Man costume which incorporated the "Spider-Stilettos" and the "Spider-Bra"!!

He then started working under the...er....wing of Black Cat, and learned how to make his new "stingers" the most effective weapons possible. She then made him a new costume and called him "Breast Spidey". Spidey remained her sidekick until Black Cat's silicone breast implants ruptured, and the silicone formed a bizarre creature called "the Gatekeeper", who was a mystical being that hunted all the Bettie Page Totems and killed them slowly!

Only after Peter used his stingers to smother the Gatekeeper, and then transferred his totem-powers to Black Cat, restoring her bust and her usefulness in the Spider-verse, was he freed of this curse!

I can't believe people hated it....especially after I had the variant edition with the cross-dressing Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham!! :(

pEEpuLL fEER chANGE!!!

I had Dotson do the artwork of course. I think the best part of the arc is the two issues which had the threesome between Sue, Felicia and Emma Frost. I know deep down the fanboys loved it, I mean sales were huge. So what if we had to hide the issues in brown paper. :D

Does anyone remember that issue where Spiderman was raped by Dr. Light?
That was a brutal issue. I honestly believe that is the real reason why Spidey is wearing the armored costume now.
