Spider-Man: [OMIT] Nothing - It's Big Time!!

cardboard delusions

Brand New Day is coming to an end and that means it's Spidey's next big thing in Big Time. Regardless if you love that Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man or hate the Web-headed Menace, Spidey begins an all new bi-monthly format hopefully healing the wounds of past and your wallets at the same time. Headed by Dan Slott and art by Humberto Ramos, Marcos Martin, and Stefano Caselli comes the next saga for Spider-Man...

Dan Slott:
"Do you want to see Peter Parker get a job?" -- he's going to get a career. He's finally going to live up to the potential of who Peter Parker should be... If he doesn't give the world everything Peter Parker can, that's being irresponsible."

Big Time will move from 22 pages to 30, either of story or backup such as Spider-Girl featured in ASM #648 and continuing in her own title from Paul Tobin and illustrated by Henry Clayton.










There will be several mini-series such as the five-parter "Carnage", from Zeb Wells and Clayton Crain and "Osborn" by Kelly-Sue Deconnick and artist Emma Rios.

I'll be picking up Big Time as I loved alot of BND. And there are so many good artists I can try and look past some of Slott's quirks

But I really do think ASM should have been given to Zeb Wells. Which is also why I'm torn on Carnage.

Did you read Wells' fill-in issues on Peter Parker: SM back in 2004ish? Those were some good issues, the Mahfood Sandman stuff and the Boomerang story about people placing bets on superheroes beating up villains.

I have that whole run around here SOMEWHERE, I got a discount on the whole thing and got it for the Cooke issues. I'll have to did those up.

Linespider5

That Bucky Cap in the second image has...issues.

Antimatter

I'm not Humberto Ramos's biggest fan

Kyougu

I like Ramos on Spidey. He captures his movements really well.

Furu

OP is missing information like the rotating art teams and stuff on Osborn and Spider-Girl

If you want I can do a write up and you can edit it in!

TexiKen

Furu you were supposed to make a Spider-Man thread weeks ago.

MastaP

Is Osborn an ongoing or a oneshot? Because I'll be honest, I'm dreading that even more than Carnage.

Gank

Are they keeping the rotating artist thing? I thought that was scrapped with the weekly release schedule. And I've always loved Ramos, although for a long while i confused him with Bachalo. Kyougu hit the nail on the head, he just draws the frenetic spider-man pace so well.

They're keeping rotating artists. The difference is that Slott is the only writer.

And yeah, I've confused Ramos and Bachelo alot in the past as well.

mini-series, and I don't see why you should be dreading it

The Lovely Bastard

can't wait for the next carnage story after the mini

MastaP

Sorry TLB, Carnage is the third worst Marvel Villain.

And Furu: It's because I think Osborn is the fourth. Petty reason to shortchange creators like that, I know, and if it's good, then it's good and I'll give it a shot.

I'll edit in everything you want, I was just waiting for this to be made.

I might be interested in ASM by November when the new direction starts but I doubt I'll get the single issues, just trades.

The whole, "... even if it isn't Peter behind the mask," thing isn't very compelling.

Yeah, it doesn't make you go "wow I wonder who it is," it more makes you go "whatever."

cardboard delusions

At least whoever it is won't be hurled into the sun... unless it's Carnage, but even he gets to come back.

Solar

Hurling people into the sun is fun. Just as much fun as tearing motherfuckers in half.

cardboard delusions

We both know Sentry will be back, I just hope he doesn't get One More Day.

CorporateLogo

He'll come back and drive a rift between Gambit and Rogue

cardboard delusions

I forget who mentioned it in an article, but they were saying some of the characters you could place as 'Friends'. The girl in the first picture under Spidey's crotch looks like Monica (I'm guessing that's Betty Brant).

Robos A Go Go

Oh no, David Schwimmer is the new Spider-Man.

The Lovely Bastard

MastaP

you have pretty bad opinions

Furu

Peter isn't getting replaced. no one has said that. That line shouldn't even be in the OP so people can stop complaining about a thing that isn't happening

Anyway, a 90's spider-man villain everyone forgot about gets a redesign in Carnage #1!

The Lovely Bastard

I never forgot about Doppelganger

Robos A Go Go

Yeah, Doppelganger's alright. I also liked the idea of a warped Spider-Man whose costume had merged into his flesh, and it looks like they're pushing the character further in that direction.

TexiKen

I remember his webbing was like barbed wire, I always thought that was a nice touch. Crawling in your skin, these wounds they will not heal, all that jazz.

I think I can figure out what comics Zeb Wells read as a teenager. This has got me a wee bit more excited for the mini because it seems this is what he really wants to write.

Do you mean the betting story,

where Rocket racer shows up in part 3 with the nipple suit?

if so, that's been one of my favorite spidey mini arc's in a long time, that 3 issue arc was filled with solid gold.

TexiKen

Rules of the Game? Yeah, it really made me wish Wells was writing a Spider-book full time back then. Jenkins had a good run on PP:SM, but around that Green Goblin arc with Ramos it fell apart, and his Spectacular run wasn't very good. Very decompressed, and Peter and MJ's neighbors were all annoying.

I'm glad Wells is finally getting his due now with more big name books, I used to think he would be Joe Kelly 2.0.

Maybe the only good thing to come out of Infinity War.

Haha, that calvin and hobbes thing is awesome.

Solar

Panel 2. Stay classy Pete.

Preview of #648 up:

I can't tell if that's a new villain or not, kind of reminds me of Steel Spidey. (Does anyone remember the premise of him or was that just some costume in a video game?)

TexiKen

I like Ramos' art there.

I thought all the Avengers know his identity though?

cardboard delusions

I'm pretty sure they do, at least according to NA when Jessica was telling Peter how she used to have a crush on him. I just think that he doesn't want random people in the streets of NYC knowing.

edit: I re-read that from Cap, it may just be an error - who knows who knows anymore right?
