Okay wait, so...does this mean I'm supposed to cry or...? I'm so confused!

 

[venom892]

Spectacular Spider-Man and Friendly Neighborhood were the only spidey books I was reading.Sucks I enjoyed them very much.The amazing teams are hopefully good.{Slott and Fraction please}

 

[PhotoJones]

I actually support this decision. A Dan Slott written Spider-Man 3 times a month? Count me the hell in.

 

[venom892]

Actually it's heavily implied it's three different writers.

 

[BrianWilly]

Then...what's the point...?

Actually it's heavily implied it's three different writers.

Right. But it suggests that each writer does a year's worth of stories. Therefore, for 4 months out of the year, we'll be getting Slott written Spidey 3 times a month.

And actually, if you wanna spilt hairs, it doesn't say that a writer couldn't be the writer for 2 arcs (8 months). Only that the creative teams will remain entact and no one finishes someone else's story.

I could see a writer swinging 3 issues a month. Bendis seems to write like 5 or 6 and others do something similar. They just need a bit of a headstart. And, like most everyone else here, 3 Slott Spidey comics per month = joygasm for me.

 

[Zaptoitnow]

But Slott openly admits he can't write more than about 2 titles a month, and he's definitely on the Initiative for quite a while, what with it being his brainchild and everything.

Slott wouldn't be bad on spidey. I haven't enjoyed everything i've read from him, but his free comic day issue was fantastic. that and I would love to see Fraction on Spidey as well.

I like Fraction. His Spidey Annual was a great read, and I like his Casanova, Iron Fist and PWJ.

 

[LouFerignoDemon]

I just may be interested.

 

[Sebastos]

I have no problem with this, i'm all for it.

 

[The Dude]

This is how it should be done IMO.

Same here.

 

[Redwoods Wolf]

Good-bye, Sacasa.

On the other hand, I do love Slott.

I'm confused, and now I feel sick. What's happening? and isn't it Sensational?

 

[IFryKids]

Now if only they can do this with the X-Men comics.

Why, so we could have three issues a month written by Chris Claremont or some such misery and none of that sweet sweet Whedon ever again? Your words are madness.

 

[BrianWilly]

Yeah, basically.

So wait, did I miss something or was it officially confirmed that Slott was writing this title?

Get whoever you want to write it, just cut out some of the fat in all of the X-Men series.

 

[Arkady Rossovich]

I wonder..how many Spider-Man books are still being made then?

 

[venom892]

Spidey will appear in Amazing,New avengers and guest star in books with slipping sales.Also I thought it was a 52 type thing with a writer each writing an issue per month.

 

[Sebastos]

Isn't just Amazing Spider-Man and Ultimate Spider-Man now?

 

[The Shredder]

Well thanks for the memories.
