    Yeah I think you are reading way too much into a throwaway line

    there is no way they are getting rid of 616 Peter

    axel has done many silly things in that column

    including hiding a lot of cancellations behind throwaway lines like that.

    No plans for anything like that as we want to keep the focus on Peter Parker, the guy at the center of the Marvel Universe. 2012 is looking to be a big one for Spider-Man with a lot of big things happening -- the 50th Anniversary as you, mention, a big movie in July, and issue #700 on Broadway. Seems like a pretty good final year for ol' Pete, doesn't it?

    What the hell

    WHAT THE FLYING FUCK

    You have to expect that
    all the improvements in his life, from the job at Horizon to his membership in the FF, wouldn't last forever.

    When the dust settles, though, I do hope that he still has some kind of tech job. In my mind, he should never go back to working at the Bugle.

    Spider-Man is never not in danger of returning to square one.

    It is Peter Parker

    he is one of the most iconic characters in comics

    ASM is both a critical and commercial smash hit right now and has been for about two years straight

    he isn't going anywhere

    this isn't like the Ultimate Universe where Peter dying was a possibility due to the rest of the line being shitty and also not being bound by decades of continuity

    Clearly they're cancelling ASM, why can't you see this!

    guys

    why didn't you tell me that Kaine has almost all of Peter's powers post-The Other in Scarlet Spider

    that is incredible

    when three fifths of my books are 3, i'm wary of picking up another 4 dollar book

    i'll pick up the trade for it and venom though!

    I thought it was silly how Kaine
    discovers he no longer has spider-sense by a pigeon flying close to his head.

    After he leaps through a literal cloud of gunfire in a waterfront shoot-out and fights a dozen armed smugglers.

    You'd think he would have noticed then.

    i like electro's new costume but i still don't like what's happened to Doc Ock

    not the brain damage part, but the whole physical redesign

    plus, where's his glasses?

    He looks too much like Darth Vader unmasked.

  • AntimatterAntimatter Devo Was Right Gates of SteelRegistered User regular
    i get the need for a life support suit, it actually makes sense for him

    but i don't like how the entirety of his head has been reshaped

    i wouldn't even know that was Doc Ock without being told

  • TurambarTurambar Independent Registered User regular
    I prefer his classic look, as well
    But I can accept the fact that he's deteriorating towards death
    The old Doc Ock is already dead

    Little snip from Venom #13, about Toxin:

    I guess the original host is dead?

    This new Ghost Rider chick is kind of generic though. More Blaze instead.

    Everyone else felt fine, and Moore draws a really good Hulk.

    I firmly believe that every character's someone's favorite, and pains should be taken not to carelessly toss that character into the trash. I haven't read the issue, so I don't know that's what happens.

    But it seems like the kind of situation where Remender could have easily done a, "Oh hey, check out this symbiote I got off the black market," with nothing really changed as a result.

    I agree with this to a degree. I think things should be handled well, but a lot of fans get mad when anything negative happens to a character they like which leads to a world where nothing bad can happen to anyone.

    On this instance specifically:
    I really doubt Toxin is just killed. Remender isn't a "kill your favorites" kind of writer and we never straight up see a dead body or even Toxin's host. He will be back for the summer symbiote event thing I am sure.

    eh, probably some mini with Kaine or the comic equivalent of that recent Spider-Man game.

    It was up before CBR or Newsarama, and Comics Alliance was too busy with a TMNT action figure post.

    I hope it is not a crossover between UCSM/ASM, but if it is I'm sure it'll be well done.
