Comics Spiderman Sister?

[Kool-Aid]

Where did you hear that? Sorry but I have to laugh at you... Okay, I'm done. You might have seen me posting and that's where you got that idea from. In my sad attepts to work for Marvel at age 15 I made up my own character. Sorry. But other than MY comic... There's no such thing. But hell if you want to see...

This is the only Spideys Sister I know of. I did my best...

You drew that? I like it.

I've read. Spider-Man: Wanted Dead or Alive, Doomsday Book Two: Sabotage, and The Lizard Sanction..all great reads from what I can remember.

Has anyone here read the Time's Arrow trilogy that the same author wrote?

As a matter of fact, I got this trilogy to read on my vacation just this month. I'm halfway through the last book.

It had come highly recommended by Spidey fans here, but I have found that I'm not as into it as I had hoped to be. I guess "team-up" books with many characters I have little interest in are not my forte. They didn't have enough Spider-Man for me.

But I found several interesting plots in these books (written about 1998) that sounded VERY familiar...

In these books there is an alternate timeline in which super-powered being have to REGISTER with the government. (Captain America is part of the resistance here too). The ones who refuse are captured and put away... It had to have totally inspired the current Civil War.

In another timeline Peter has a daughter that discovers she has inherited her father's powers and puts on the costume when she's in high school. Her name is May and she calls herself Spider-girl.

BTW - Castro actually only wrote the 2nd one, with Tom DeFalco on all.

I read the Secrte of the Sinister Six, but couldn't find the first two. Has Pity appeared since

Spoiler

she washed up after the plane carrying the catalyst dropped her, Spidey, and the Chameleon int eh sea?

She was a great character. If she hasn't, I may pitch an idea I had for her to Marvel...

Not that I know of. She WAS a great character though...

Keep checking ebay, and those Amazon links I posted.

I hate to say this, guys, but I got "Gathering of the Sinister Six" for only 2 bucks on Ebay (in pretty much brand new condition) - I caught it at just the right time. I ended up getting it a long time AFTER I'd read the latter 2 books of the trilogy (which you can read and still enjoy on their own just fine).

As not only Doc Ock, Captivated, Symbiotica, but also I have stated many times - that is a WONDERFUL trilogy. It's only REAL flaw is the lack of grammar editing - but that is easily forgiven by me, 'cuz the story itself more than makes up for it.

Anyone who claims to enjoy Spiderman stories shouldn't be without it, bottom line.

It's like I said in an earlier thread (Ock might remember reading it) - IF ONLY the Spiderman movies could somehow lead up to a Sinister 6 movie based as closely as possible to these books. It'd be cinematic bliss if done properly.

Wow, you were lucky! I felt fortunate to get it at $15! Just goes to show you it pays to keep checking.

The Gathering had more Mysterio than Sinister Six, but I think it was my favorite of the three. LOVE the way Castro wrote Pete and MJ.

Well, Mysterio's my favorite Spidey villain anyway, so it worked out beautifully for me. All the books were great to me. And I agree - his treatment of, not just the villains, but of Pete and MJ too was VERY accomplished and well executed. Couldn't have asked for more.

I liked Revenge of the Sinister Six the best out of the three. I thought it was pretty evil and twisted of the villains to re-visit the places where people died that Spidey failed to save, like the bridge where Gwen died and the rooftop where Captain Stacy died.

Also the whole mystery with Pity was most intriguing in that book too.

It really engaged me emotionally too... I was afraid for Spidey!

But it was great to have him behaving like the hero he is... as opposed to the watered down version.

I will also add this - that story made me respect the Chameleon as a villain quite a bit more then what I did before. He always bored me before, but in this he redeemed himself quite admirably. It all depends on the creativity behind the writing of the character - one writer can ruin a character, and another one can make that same character better than ever before.

These novels did wonders for alot of characters. Peter and MJ were connected and felt like a REAL couple. Their conversations together at home were great.

The villains were all shown at their full villainous potential. It gave me a new respect for the Vulture in particular. And I looooooved how Castro wrote Ock. An arrogant, egotistical, power hungry, ruthless, and hateful man. Perfect characterization.
I'd love to see the Gentleman introduced into the comics. He was a very intriguing villain.

Aloha,
I would love to see the Gentleman, introduced as well. Not sure about some of the other novels, but Down these Mean Streets, is acknowledged as being a part of Amazing Spider-Man continuity. In the inside front pages it states that the story occurs right after Amazing #509.It would be interesting to see if Marvel acknowledges Sinister Six trilogy as part of Amazing continuity.

Not to mention they none-too-sublty led us on to The Marital Act between Peter and MJ on more than one occasion...

Rooowwrrr....
