Spider-Man General Discussion

Go To

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?).

     Original Thread OP 
Since everyone likes talking about him. I know little about him(Ironically,I got nearly all I know about him from a Batman thread),but he's apparently important so I made this thread. Enjoy.

I think someone was talking about it a bit ago but I just got the judgement day free comic day free comic, and robot Moira Mactaggart definitely kidnapped Mary Jane to make her into a skin suit.

I don’t love that.

Can someone remind me why Professor X's ex is doing this exactly?

I think that between Inferno resulting in her depowering and X Lives/Deaths of Wolverine turning her into a part Sentinel, Moira X has decided to get revenge on the X-Men. Apparently MJ is going to be an ambassador for Krakoan products in exchange for medicine for Aunt Anna.

Huh I reading about Gwenverse , and wow looks like they completely did away with Gwen being an interdimensional exile.

Aborted Arc: Ghost-Spider (2019) ended with Gwen being forced out of her home dimension to Earth-616 for the safety of her loved ones, after being blackmailed by the Storm twins. This is never followed up on, with the first issue of Gwenverse showing that Gwen is back to living in Earth-65 and openly performing heroics without any worry.

Well alright Gwen's back home, that is pretty cool.

[up]Who do you think will take it?

Gwen is technically Spider Woman in her world, Spider Gwen to the fans, and Ghost Spider everywhere else.

Cindy Moon is already going by Silk (and I'm not sure how old she is, so she may not fit the girl part).

Mattie Franklin is dead, and was Spider Woman before hand so...

[up] Maybe the Spider-Girl teased at the end of Spencer's run or the MJ version glimpsed in Timeless?

I guess. I'll have to check out Timeless.

Also, MJ was a Spider-Girl? Not Spinerette instead?

Be funny if the older MJ was Spider Girl while a younger version of Gwen was (kinda) Spider Woman.

[up] The Spider-Woman glimpsed in Timeless looked like MJ from the back. Could well be someone else though

Oh, and not yet mentioned, but...yeah, Dan Slott is back for this one

@Akirakan Yo congrats she's finally back in her original name and similar first suit, that's boss.

Also oh wow another Spider-Verse title. I assume the Inheritors are back for this one as well.

So now the entire holy trinity of Spidey love interests (MJ, Felicia and Gwen) all have incarnations with spider powers.

Anya's new costume is really nice. I vastly prefer the OG costume to her black and white one, and this updates it to be really awesome.
