Comics Official Fans of Reilly Thread - Part 1

[JJJ's Ulcer]

God... please, please don't let that be Ben.

 

[spidey-dude]

i posted out of order a bit i think - ive corrected that now

could be ben....hopefully if it is they will reverse it and we will have ben and kaine back to normal

 

[spidey-dude]

other way round bud

 

[AgentEnforcer]

Well... there were two hints as to the identity of the original Man Spider. Jackal says "Oh like you know from funny. Actually you were quite the class clown back in the day, weren't ya." after the Man Spider says "Not funny." after a Jackal joke. Jackal also tell the Man Spider not to be jealous when he comments that Kaine is the ultimate specimen of Parker's DNA. He also calls the Man Spider "One of his prized students."

Could be Ben, could be an actual Midtown High-school student from back in the day.

 

[spidey-dude]

Are you sure... It seemed to me that the Grey one is Kaine/Tarantula...

nah he calls the brown one kaine

he calls the brown one Kaine...the brown one is Kaine

read what i posted, it even says he is "parker 3.0 failed misfit" and shows a pic of kaine

 

[JJJ's Ulcer]

spidey-dude is right. It's obvious that it's not Kaine coming out of the tube (ever remember a time when Jackal gave a crap about Kaine?). I don't see how the comic could be any clearer than it already is.

 

[spidey-dude]

it makes sense for it to be ben - the only other explanation, and im really stretching here as i think this was explained in the osborn journals already, is that is the spider smokestack skeleton

as for woman, i havent read enough spiderman recently so could guess caroline trainer but she isnt psychic as far as i know...

 

[spidey-dude]

that one was buried by Pete and Ben, no one else knows about it.
And it was only a skeleton...

it was a clone skeleton - as shown on stage by that scientist

im pretty sure the osbourn journal said he put it there just to **** with them though

 

[AgentEnforcer]

Man I totally misread that. OK so the one that was in the tube COULD have been Ben.

Please please please let it have been Ben, who mystery lady found once all of Osborn's stuff was seized by SHIELD. Also... please let him be turned back to Ben.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Anyone remember the Queen from Paul Jenkins Spectacular Spider-Man run? I wonder if she could be the psychic woman. She did turn Peter into a giant spider. Purely a shot in the dark.

[AgentEnforcer]

It would be perfectly in keeping with the use of very unpopular story line elements. Did anyone see the solicit for the final issues of Spider-Island? Talk of "Brother vs. Brother"

 

[mcg031]

I'm excited about Spidey Island. I'm hoping that thing isn't Ben that would be a downer if he's evil....That's what Kaine is for.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

We'll have to wait and see, I guess.

 

[SpideyInATree]

Definitely. I have faith in Slott and I hope that my favorite Spider-Man writer doesn't mess up one of my favorite Spidey characters of all time.

 

[AgentEnforcer]

DeMatteis chimed in with me on Twitter advocating for Ben to come back. Love that guy.

 

[spidey-dude]

tell demattis to bring him back!!!!

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Definitely. I have faith in Slott and I hope that my favorite Spider-Man writer doesn't mess up one of my favorite Spidey characters of all time.

Slott is one of the greats of today.

 

[Anno_Domini]

I thought that rumor of Ultimate Reilly becoming the next Spider-Man was accurate.

I sure am disappointed.

 

[Mary Jane Watson]

I thought that rumor of Ultimate Reilly becoming the next Spider-Man was accurate.

I sure am disappointed.

Same here. But I am pretty sure that Marvel doesn't want to make the same mistake that they did in 90's.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

DeMatteis chimed in with me on Twitter advocating for Ben to come back. Love that guy.

Nice, lol. I've talked to Dan Slott twice about bringing him back in the past.

 

[Will Nolte]

I'm kinda hoping that the one in the tube was Spidercide.

 

[Will Nolte]

hope? man i love the hoodie

I like the hoodie too, what I meant to say I hope that my guess was the right one as opposed to the alternative of what the burning hoodie meant. Though maybe there is a 3rd option in light of the ASM666 events...

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ True...

 

[AgentEnforcer]

Nothing to really spoil for us Reilly fans. A few Scarlet Spiders running around and one really fat Spider-Ben (Last Panel.) Aside from that, the possible Ben Reilly mutant has been dubbed "Spider-King."
