YMMV / Marvel 2099

  • Audience-Alienating Era: Cavalieri's firing and the ensuing Writer Revolt unsurprisingly led to this.
  • Complete Monster: See here.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • With a hint of irony. During his early Spider-Man works, Spider-Man 2099 writer Peter David, working on the advice of fellow writers and editorsnote  "revealed" that Ned Leeds was the original Hobgoblin—which several fans thought was questionable given how Leeds died and the original Hobgoblin mystery writer, Roger Stern, came back and revealed that it wasn't the case. David had intended Father Jennifer to be the (Green) Goblin 2099, but it was revealed that Gabriel O'Hara was Goblin 2099 (though this was later retconned to be an imposter). Someone had to appreciate the irony, even if (as the link shows) David himself doesn't. And much like Stern with Roderick Kingsley, Peter David did ultimately reveal that Jennifer was indeed the Goblin.
    • As "One Nation Under Doom" drew to a close, Herod created a Captain America clone as a puppet with the cover story that history had repeated itself and Steve Rogers was frozen in ice and revived yet again. Manifest Destiny reveals the fate of the real Steve Rogers; as it turns out, history really did repeat itself...
  • Moral Event Horizon: Herod crosses it big time when wipes out ALL of Latveria.
