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.

Please follow the rules regarding spoilers for the latest issues. Nobody wants to unexpectedly hit unmarked spoilers on publication day.

I’ll read Spider-Gwen when she’s on Earth 65

So probably never at this point

Man, I remember when Matt Murdock was her arch-enemy and she actually had a thing going on with the Mary Janes.

Those were actual good times. She has no mythology of her own presumably because Marvel doesn't want Sony to harvest any of that among other reasons like wanting her to be on earth 616.

Fucking hell, you can't go across a street block without running into a Spider-Person.

Last I heard of the run yeah, his company got bombed by one of the people he left widowed.

Look, I stopped following after Spider-Man got sexually assaulted by his evil clone daughter, Itsy Bitsy.

> Peter Parker is an everyman

> Peter Parker the guy with an evil daughter who is a clone assaulting him and also several clones of himself and also regularly teams up with alternate universe versions of himself and also spent a while posessed by one of his enemies and also lost a fortune of millions of dollars and also made a deal with a literal devil and also had an actual daughter deleted from time along his marriage and also lost his girlfriend formerly wife to a man from a different parallel dimension and also had his nemesis not the one who posessed him cleansed from his sins and also his best friend who was the son of that nemesis revived and also his other girlfriend was replaced by a parallel universe version of herself. That guy, the everyman, just like any of us

Please remember that, ultimately, fictional works of entertainment are just that.

Of all the things to come out of this shit with Gwen, the funniest is everyone begging Norman to come back and kill Gwen again. [lol]

Yeah. That's not funny.

I find no humor in it.

That means they've ruined Spider-Gwen, and we should not be celebrating it. And if you are, than I'm pooping right on that party.

I'll make fun of myself thank you.

Wait, wait, hold on

Didn't Gwen Stacy just get brought back as a cyborg assassin?

How does Spider-Gwen replacing her fit into that?

The universe just has two Gwen Stacys. When Miles moved from Earth 1610 there was still a 616 Miles Morales who worked for the kingpin.

Wasn't that before Secret Wars moved Miles to 616?

Alright then.

Wait, does Miles even remember his old universe and friends there?

According to that interview Miles remembers everything.

Its weird because I believe Peter cracks a joke about Miles being from a different universe so he also remembers. Miles' uncle, Aaron Davis vaguely remembers himself dying but isn't sure of it.
