Bro, just finish your spider thread

It looked like a good time

Baroque And Roll

This thread is possibly about Spider-Man.

That is more than enough for me to endorse it.

dush

does anyone else namesearch

no me neither no way

Faynor

there are a multitude of reasons on why spider-man is flawed and a lot of his recent history showcases it

i'm sorry shoe but your favorite character often sucks!!!!!!

Good enough thread to ask: Should I play Crisis Core even if I didn't care for/get that far in FFVII or is it fan service?

Fuck right off.

Hate Spider-Man? No, Spider-Man's cool in a closed setting like the movies or whatever

Hate his concept and Marvel's pathological need to make him relateable at all times, often causing inverse character growth and hamfisted plot lines, among other things?

You bet your sweet ass I do

Fire Truck

Wait what about Spider-Man's concept do you hate, Faynor?

Keep in mind I am ready and willing to start calling you Gaynor depending on your response.

Baroque And Roll

Another favorite of mine is 'Fagnor', Fire Truck.

This calls to mind Ragnorok, though, which is awesome.

I suppose I could imagine and expound upon some sort of "Fagnor-ok" where Faynor is so gay that it destroys the world?

I completely agree with lime..

I'm on the right.

Jordyn

Sometimes comics are written by shitty writers.

The most popular characters are often the most shit upon because of the company's desire to make piles of money.

Faynor

Fagnorok is the coolest thing and it's my new nickname fyi

Alright, in concept, Spider-Man is the relateable guy. He's what you would be if you were a superhero; tired, wracked with guilt, constantly being pulled in several directions, but plays it off with humour and lightheartedness even though oftentimes the situations he's in aren't humouress or lighthearted

But in practice, Fire Truck, in practice, he becomes this man-child that can never grow up, like some sort of weird arachnid-esque Peter Pan and who's constantly letting everyone around him down because none of the hundreds of other New York centered superheroes could fight Rhino this time so he could make his date with Mary Jane

Spider-Man went from being a happily married High School teacher to a single (yet not divorced!!) unemployed schlub who was living with his aunt

And his direction since then has been pretty forgettable, if not offensively stupid!

Comics, man

Jordyn

If you want to feel absolutely beaten down by the comic book industry, go to the Marvel and DC panels at the cons for a couple years.

Well yeah.

But that's because, just like any other form of entertainment, comics are by and large utter shit. That's why I stopped spending money on them. I'll still pick up a trade paperback every now and again if I hear about a good run, but if you are reading comics expecting every run to be at all good, you are setting yourself up for disappointment.

Jordyn

only buy Darwyn Cooke comics.

Jordyn

I'm kidding, you can buy other stuff.

But you should buy all Darwyn Cooke comics, or you are a shitty person.

How is thinking he does bad comics being an apologist for him?

He's just not the first or last person who has done bad comics.

Faynor

I just love the word apologist, okay

Look, I don't except every single arc to be Captain Britain and the MI:13 quality because that's unrealistic

But with a flagship character (or any character, really!), churning out pure and unadulterated shit is pretty silly

s'all I'm saying

look I asked some teenagers

and black is cooler than red

therefore venom is cooler

however, that argument is hard to prove since carnage is cooler than them both

and he is red

but he is red because he is blood and blood is radical

Jordyn

I liked the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-man stuff that Peter David was writing. Peter David is hilarious. But other people told me they thought it was "weird" and they "didn't get it."

Faynor

aw, you've fooled yourself into forgetting about the best spider-related character
