->Given Slott's less-than-stellar relationship with the fans, that does a lot to get long-time Spidey readers back into the book. [...] But in order for my analysis of [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManNickSpencer Spencer's book]] to make sense, I better give some context regarding why the book is so out of line with [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManDanSlott Slott's vision]]. Dan Slott isn't an inhenerently bad writer, in fact I've loved a couple of his stories. But he's made a lot of decisions to deliberately piss off fans of the book because he has this mantra: 'It's good to show contempt for your audience, just ask Creator/MichaelBay!' He was never afraid to challenge the status quo of Spider-Man or try new things. But the irritation with Spidey fans came from his decisions usually having [[StatusQuoIsGod no lasting effect]] or trampling on established and consistent ideas to fit his own.

->What especially stands out in the footage of GG’s shows is his relationship with his audience. With your average rock show there’s a sense that the band is being placed on a pedestal for fawning adulation. Punk broke down the barrier between the musicians and their audience and allowed the bands to present themselves as part of the crowd, no better or worse than the people they were playing for. But GG was actively at war with his audience. He cursed them, hit them, threw objects at them, and in the case of women ([[AnythingThatMoves and some men!]]) attempted to rape them. And they fought back, throwing epithets, fists and bottles at GG while he was onstage. Watching the pit at a GG Allin show was like looking at some curious rite of passage of an obscure Africa tribe where only the bravest are willing to get close enough to the stage and risk either bodily harm or the possibility of receiving a fistful of shit, piss or blood. (It's strangely ironic that after all the shows GG did with no concern for his audience’s safety, Great White is the band that ends up killing a hundred of their fans.)

->This hatred [towards ''Series/{{Sherlock}}'' fans] doesn't just manifest in insulting wankery like having it turn out to be a fucking ''boomerang'', or deliberately re-writing one of the first proto-feminist icons in crime-fiction to be a sexy kung-fu dominatrix in love with the main character, but in how the show directly tells you that, if you're a fan, you should personally go and ''fuck'' yourself. [...] Season 3 features several characters whose sole job it is to [[ThisLoserIsYou portray fan theories and theorists and make fun of them and call them stupid for bothering to try and figure out what happened based on the information given to them by the show]]. [...] People trying to figure out the ''mystery'' in a ''mystery-story'' are presented as a little club of weirdos being weird together. The creator of the story appears to be so fundamentally ''incapable'' of recognizing how to tell a mystery, that he's perceived people ''treating'' it like one as ''insane''.

->[[Creator/RobertHolmes (Robert) Holmes’s]] interest in continuity has always [[NegativeContinuity been virtually null.]] He jettisoned everything we thought we knew about Gallifrey in [[{{Recap/DoctorWhoS14E3TheDeadlyAssassin}} the Deadly Assassin]], and in bringing the Time Lords back as peripheral figures in this story he basically scraps all of that for a whole new set of technology and explanations of things. Tat Wood accuses this of being [[TorchTheFranchiseAndRun the point where Holmes starts to believe his own reputation]], but I think nothing could be further from the truth. This is the point where Holmes loses patience with being put on a pedestal. It’s much like the classic story of comics legend Creator/JackKirby being told that someone was drawing one of his characters 'Jack Kirby style' and remarking that Jack Kirby style would have been to create a new character.
