Official Fans of Reilly Thread

Picked up my lot of comics a couple of hours ago, and read Spider Girl first, Kaine whooping ass!, Venom as a supporting character!, Mary Janes bulemic cousin! It had it all!!!

 

All that and a bag of chips. It really does kick ass.

 

I liked Ben Reilly. I just wish he stayed The Scarlet Spider instead of becoming Spider-Man for awhile. But I was saddened when he died.

 

^ Me too.

 

Anyone else think the Scarlet Spider costume was one of the most badass costumes of alltime? It really reflected the difference in the two spider-men's personalities too.

 

I suppose.

 

Welcome to the OFR thread CB!

Yes I welcomed you before you even came to the thread, wanna fight about it?

 

Ben is kool. i like Peter better but Ben is kool.

 

I think Ben's alot better than Peter. I mean he revolutionized Spidey's weaponry. Mini-dot spider tracers, Impact Webbing, stingers, new costume, and even made webbing out of anything he had around the house or could afford. Such a genius that Ben Reiilly is!

 

He was a "cool" Peter. He had to get over all his nerdiness and became a street living, rough and tough, "Cool" guy. He's up on fads and what not, and due to Seward, he had alot more time to experiment. He was a dan interesting character and it sucks we lost em.

 

Agreed with the above Fathermithras; The Scarlet Spider costume is my favourite superhero outfit ever.

In other news, one of the guys that works at a comic shop near me put up his entire collection of stuff for sale a few days ago. I convinced him to put out Reilly-centric stories such as Lost Years, Redemption, and his own relaunch on the front of the shelves.

 

^I actually have that issue!

 

^ I have em all Annual, 1/2 and What If? included

Bought them as they came out

 

Me too. I basically have every comic from 99-on.

 

I have all the Spider-girls, as well as all of the original Clone Saga. Took me a while to get some, though... Beat that!

I nearly flipped a poop when that Spidergirl hit the stands... it wasn't Ben, but it was still damn good!

 

I've got the entire clone saga, the original clone saga with an ASM 144 signed by Gerry Conway and Ross Andru, the white variant of ASM 400 a NM copy of the first apperance of the Jackal, annnnnnnnnnnnd an original animation cell of an unmasked Ben Reilly/Scarlet Spider from the animated series

I win

 

Hey! I'm new here and I never really read the whole clone saga but I loved Ben Reilly! wish he comes back

 

But do you have the only Spider-girl action figure?

 

I only have 70% of th' clone saga. I'm workin' on gettin' th' rest.

 

I've been reading Spider-Girl off again, on again since it first started and this past issue may just keep me reading a little more regularly. Why? Phil Urich is back as the Green Goblin, baby! I LOVED the Green Goblin series and am still PO'd that it got cancelled after 13 issues. But now that Phil is flying high again (sorry for the pun ) I'm back for the long haul.

 

A no prize to anyone who can tell me, what power Petes daughter has that neither he, Kaine, nor Reilly's son has.

 

Reilly has a son?

 

Yeah he had a kid with Jeanine/Elizabeth Tyne, named Reilly Tyne, due to some clone and demonic related issues mainly regarding Kaine and Daredevil, Reilly Tyne/Darkdevil has full Spider Powers, All of Daredevils power annnnnnnnd spooky powers like teleportation, levetation, flaming staffs etc.
