This thread's for the Spider-Man comics and spin-offs, whether they're decades old or brand new.
- Apart from the main Marvel Universe titles, Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Man "What If?" stories, crossovers, guest appearances in other books, Alternate Universe tales and things like Marvel's manga adaptations are all on-topic here.
- Spider-Man 'family' books are on-topic (as are their own crossovers, guest appearances etc.) - e.g. Spider-Man 2099, Miles Morales, Spider-Woman, Silk, Spider-Gwen, Venom, Carnage, Black Cat, Red Goblin and Spider-Verse.
- Characters and comics that originated in Spider-Man but are no longer directly connected to the spider-franchise (e.g. Punisher, Silver Sable) are not on-topic, unless you're discussing historical connections and crossovers. If in doubt, check before you write a long post. If this isn't the right place, there's a more general Marvel Comics thread
which covers them.
Technically, Marvel's Infinity Comics (and their predecessors, Infinite Comics) are webcomics, not comic books, but it's fine to talk about their Spider-Man stories here.
Discussions that are only about Spider-Man adaptations in other media (films, video games etc.) are off-topic, but discussing the differences between the adaptations and the original comics is fine - as long as spoilers for the adaptations are tagged.
Please follow the spoiler policy rules - tag spoilers for the latest issues, for any previews or content leaks, and for off-topic comics. When including spoiler tags, try to write so that tropers can make an informed decision before viewing them (e.g. which series and issue will they spoil?).

Jessica has a brother now, and the brother has a daughter, who inherited the Drew family bad genetics. The brother is currently all hopped up on Psycho Serum, and they are going to try and stop what he and his evil girlfriend are doing and save him.
Is Jessica back to her old costume?
The Head of the Hydra
Yes she's back in her classic attire.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
Damn guess those alternates didn't last lmao
The Head of the Hydra
Really the 2nd costume was pretty fine for the most part but the 3rd one was awful.
Way too much black.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
My opinions would be switched on that 
I actually liked the third costume, the second costume just didn't impress.
The Head of the Hydra
I like that the 2nd one has some color even if the pants are too much of a solid shade of a black.
By contrast the 3rd one is way too much black.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
Amazing Spider-Man#875 preview
"The end of the Kindred saga...and more"
We begin with Harry's death from Spectacular Spider-Man#200, and what happened afterwards from Harry's perspective. Harry awakens to find himself in hell confronted by Mephisto, who reminds him that he passed without telling Peter about his parents or putting into motion the Gwen/Norman deception. Harry holds Mephisto accountable for his curse over the years, Mephisto calls Harry a fool and that it was never truly about him, he was but a victim of circumstance, and a soul that now hangs in the balance. We cut to Peter in Paris battling Kindred

Man, I really fucking hate how Spencer linked everything with the Osborns back to Mephisto.
The Head of the Hydra
Huh I was reading Mike Costa's Venom page and noticed this bit.
Wait thats why that happened, oh my God. Huh you'd think they could have made an exception for Andi as the female symbiote wielder.

Agreed.
The Osborns are one of the most influential members of Spidey's cast and now everything they did was Mephisto's fault. Are they trying to make Mephisto into the real Big Bad of Spider-Man?

Hey, enough fans already see him that way. ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}
Team Rocket Boss.
In a meme sort of way, because of how infamous OMD is.
Now Spencer is making Mephisto the greater scope villain of some of the best Spider-Man stories.

It’s kind of funny that a story which was intended to return spider-man to his “Everyman” status has sort of accidentally made Satan his arch enemy
Ok, is signature worthy.
Funny but not helpful
But isn’t satan the worst enemy of every man?
Forever liveblogging the Avengers
Team Rocket Boss.
What about those of other religions besides Christianity?
But seriously, it's never a good idea to add magic to Spider-Man's lore. But they keep doing it.
Might as well make him sorcerer supreme.

"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you."
Given all the Spider-Verse stuff I'm surprised we haven't gotten a Sorceror Supreme Spider-Man yet.
I've been waiting for them to go full magic with Anya.
If there's a character in the Spider-Man lore that fits better to explore the mystic side of the totem mythos is Anya.
Oh totally, that's kind of how she started off before they tried to make her more "uniform" during BND.
The Head of the Hydra
Shame how they generalized her.
It’s a weird habit like what they are doing with Gwen.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."

Caught up to Extreme Carnage.
Is Cletus basically a symbiote now? Guy no longer has a body and is straight up possesses people exactly like a symbiote.
Where does the Carnage symbiote end and Cletus begins?
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
the very very many carnage stories told in the last few years have made it clear there is no distinction. I think ever since he came back after sentry sent him into orbit. the symbiote is cletus and vice versa. so when his body died for good and turned into dust he lived on in the symbiote
Is that a new Spider or someone making a comeback?
Wake me up at your own risk.
