And what are you? The Hype's official ******?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The Spider-Man of the last few years seemed more "out of character" than what's going to be presented to us... so I fail to see your logic.

I don't recall ever saying anything about the last few years' worth of stories. The last time I genuinely enjoyed Spider-Man comics was about 5 years back, during JMS' early run and Jenkins' done-in-one tales that skirted the edges of Spider-Man's universe.

Also, given that you've been reading the character for decades and I've literally only been acquainted with the married Spider-Man on a regular basis, I think it's obvious that we're going to have different ideas about Peter's character with regard to the OMD changes.

The last time I enjoyed Spider-Man was the last issue of Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane.

 

[Doc Destruction]

The last time I enjoyed Spider-Man was reading Spider-Girl.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Spider-Man's pretty boring in Spider-Girl.

 

[PhotoJones]

I could never get into it.

i never picked up that comic cause i thought it was gonna be cheesy and childish....did i miss out on sumthin good???

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's very old-school Spidey. Just with May in the Spidey role.

 

[Themanofbat]

We do? I guess if you want to call you quoting my posts and freaking the **** out at some of my comments a "history," then yes, we do.

I didn't say it was huge history...

I know. It's mainly the art that turned me off. Oh, and the fact that it's in a possible alternate reality.

The last time I enjoyed Spider-Man was when he was in bed with me last night.

Tee em eye.

It's definitely in an alternate reality at this point. The art takes getting used to, but I can deal with it. DeFalco makes the MC2 universe feel really nice and cohesive, which was severely lacking in the 616 comics when I started reading Spider-Girl.

I only have 1 decade of reading single Spidey stories under my belt (well... 13 years actually), while I have 2 decades of married Spdiey reading.

Both were good in their own ways, though I may see the 70's stuff with rose coloured glasses on account I was younger.

But having said that, I wasn't too please with the outcome of OMD (which sucked donkey balls in my opinion), because more importantly than a married/single Spider-Man, I like Marvel for it's conitnuity... which at this point seems altered.

However, I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and show me how everything still "works" within the confines of everything that occured.

It's got it's little audience, which is commendable.

May as Peter is redundant. I always get tired of "replicating" a superhero's powers because its their kid. And I didn't like the concept of maiming Peter just to make some alternate universe work. Oh, wait...

What's with all the pink posts???

Well, pink's the new "tinky" color of Marvel. They tinkle at this, and that. t:

You're a better man than I, Gunga TMOB. If MJ and Peter get back together, I'll give it a shot. I feel awkward just seeing Peter cheat on her in preview images, though.

 

[PhotoJones]

So do I.

 

[Doc Destruction]

It really is freaking me out, Corp. I hate the hell out of it.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

NOW I'm suprised PJ didn't try to squeeze out a technicality there. *Crosses fingers* Post in the right thread.

 

[Miss Webb]

I dunno, in this crazy new universe Pete and MJ may have some sort of open ended "arrangement." It makes as much sense as anything else I suppose. After all, four years of dating (is that it?) gets stale in this swingin' new MU. Gotta hit that Parker luck.

Yup, I can see it now. Peter Parker. Sex Bomb. t:

 

[TheCorpulent1]

No, Peter and MJ dated, were engaged, and then broke up. No arrangements of the air-quoted variety or otherwise.

Wait, so in BND, Pete and MJ were engaged?
