hahahaHAHA EXAMS ARE DONE

TIME TO REPLY TO OLD THINGS THAT PEOPLE HAVE STOPPED TALKING ABOUT

@Badge: As a Catholic who is in support of the homosex and actually bases this on his beliefs, feel free to chat to me at any time I guess

@Chris:

implying they can't tell Miles's origin story in the movie

That's the thing though. Miles' comic origin story actually sort of requires Peter. The reason he decided to actually fight crime was that he saw Peter die and was all "oh shit I could have helped him" and then a lot of comics afterward are him dealing with people going "Yeah but you're not REAL Spiderman the costume is in bad taste how dare you". Of course, this isn't anything immutable, and they could clearly change it for the movies but I guess I just like nitpicking about comic books I like.

Like, don't get me wrong, I'm all for Miles Morales in the MCU, especially considering how this was the perfect time to do it given a lot of people's feelings of "If I have to see Uncle Ben die one more time..." I was hoping for it myself. Just not expecting it.

But they would have had to change his origin story to do it.

At least now we get to watch Uncle Ben once again try to mangle the "Responsibility" quote until it's barely recognisable for a second time.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

The reluctance to say that line straight-up has always bugged me. It's Spider-Man. It's iconic. You can say it.

Although actually from what I've heard Marvel are planning to skip the actual origin story.

I got an idea.

A version where Uncle Ben defends himself.

Yeah, the best thing they can do, short of introducing Miles Morales, is to skip the origin story entirely. We all know it, let's move on.

The spider-bite reverses his aging until he's like 30 or so.

And he punches Kingpin in the dick.

My favourite way of approaching origin stories that everyone knows is still All Star Superman.

Lookit

[up]I am actually shocked that this has not been done in any what-if comic at all to my knowledge

I mean you have actual canon comics where Aunt May becomes a herald of Galactus, and yet this doesn't happen

i'm sad

i didn't grab at least one win in a set so i couldn't tie the scores

this was the end result by the way
