Me too.

That's why I play Bridge, with all the rest of the shnooks.

I don't know what "jake" is. Is that from the same dialect as "macking"?

Different worlds, daddy-o.
You "mack" with a "honey".
You're "jake" with all the cool cats and kittens, dig?
You hep now, junior, or do I need to lay it down on the rebound?

(Someone's going to pull me aside now and beat the cr@p outta me, aren't they?)

Ever see that soap and towel scene from Full Metal Jacket?

It's not just going to be some.

OMD stunk ROYALLY, which everyone mostly admits...YET it leads into and IS what BND continues.

So it is not OVER...it is like a bad disease.

And OMD/BND changes continuity in a much larger scope than Sins Past (Again, a story i despise)...but at least we weren't forced to read it either, because we had CHOICES back then in spidey comics.

Now it is either Ultimate Spider-man, or Ultimate-Ultimate Spider-man.

And now, we're reading Pete in situations that are inevitable to copy what's gone before, just as Ultimate has in spots. PEte living with Aunt May again, finding a job again, dating (pointlessly NOW) again, Aunt May finding out he is Spidey again, Aunt May getting sick or attacked again...Pete stressing over hiding things from Aunt May again.

All meanwhile, MJ is in the picture, where we will remember she IS his wife except for the fact that they dealed away everything good to the devil to save a dying old lady, whom no one else in the Marvel Universe could save from a bullet wound conveniently. YEH, REMEMBER THAT POINT next time an x-men, or fantastic four member, or avenger is healded from worse.

GREAT POST, probably the best I've read regarding OMD. The choice between Ultimate Spider-Man, or Ultimate-Ultimate Spider-Man makes me want to puke. Of course, the third choice is "none of the above." Re-hashing single Pete living at home does nothing for me. I don't care how many lame new villians they throw at you hoping one will stick. Jackpot? Really? Bookie Joe or Bookie Bob? Really?

Finally, have May die and Peter moves on and grows from this as a person and finally have Peter and Marry-Jane be together.

THAT is where they should have gone. Losing May would have been brutal and far more meaningful. Those of us who have lost a mother knows how difficult and how life altering it can be. Spider-Man writers could have ridden that emotion and angst for years. Peter bravely moving forward without his moral compass in place is far more interesting then re-hasing the 1980's. Ben being gone followed now by May would've provided the ultimate (NO pun intended) test for Peter. It sure would make him more relatable as the Marvel everyman always drawing bad luck but fighting through the toughest of times. Isn't THAT what Spider-Man has always been about?

i have stated this same thing a few posts ago and i agree completely. Having lost a mother a few years ago i could have related to the story and peter parker which drew me to the character in the first place

Forgive me if this was posted, but I came across this. Compelling stuff.

One would think if Joe Q & JMS had this much turmoil, it would have been worth rethinking why OMD "had" to happen in the first place? But, oh well.

Dread, where have you been for the last week?

Avoiding this topic. I did say to forgive me if it had been posted before.

There's only so much OMD I can take in a week.

It's been debated to death. At this point, the only left to talk about is whether or not Slott cheats at bridge.

Yo yo yo yo, be rollin' with da dawgs...

crackin' dat chicky lick.

Meanwhile, in other news...tried to get onto the Hype Boards half an hour ago and guess what came up? A huge, lovely blue graphic icon and

"DATABASE ERROR....ADMINISTRATOR MAY BE NOTIFIED."

lol. I just thought everything had crashed from the OMD threads...and if you think its bad here, its even uglier at CBR Forums. I have no idea if internet posters represent the readership at large, but Marvel better hope not. And their main site is in editorial lockdown with warnings about Joey Q...you know its shot when posters are threatened about how they post.

whenever Stan Lee waxes about how Peter Parker was supposed to be a reflection of the everyman (or everykid as the case was), i tend to agree. for all the outlandishness that goes with a superhero comic, the character went through real-life experiences. This would have been another one to grow from, but now, the stories will lack a resonance with the actual readers of Spider-Man (not the "numerous" readers that Q seems to think have been calling for an end to the marriage for years).

I marvel that you guys can go on and on.

I admitted that I'm split on this because of the story,... and who will be writing it.

All I can do is wait and see.

And a lot of the time, what he does say, makes very little sense.

Hahaha. Here in Detroit, we "mack" on "broads".

Thanks for the new lingo home-skillet.

I really hope somehow they find a way to fix this! Also I always though Mephisto was an alien creature from another dimension who pretended to be the devil to make humans afraid but he was not ACTUALLY the devil!? So is he the REAL devil or just a hoax with powrs?

 

[Ion Kenshin]

i think he is the real marvel version of the devil...there is that whole bio on him in the back of the OMD issues describing his rise to power if you will....that may help ya out

Like I've said, any married couple with sick elderly relatives better watch their backs now that Mephisto the anti-marriage fairy is on the scene.

Why thank you,.. I've been reading a few of you who have made it an art form and an occupation in threads you really have no interest in.
