The Peter Parker/Mary Jane Watson Marriage Will Never Return

One of the many things that bothers me about Marvel was the removal of regular Marvel continuity of the marriage between Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. It just did not make sense to me. Marvel and then editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics Joe Quesada did not make clear their reason for doing this. When confronted with a backlash by fans due to his decision to dictate a controversial reversal of Peter Parker’s marriage to Mary Jane Watson in the “One More Day” storyline, Quesada participated in a series of interviews…

The Future Of Spider-Man At Sony

Tom Hardy has signed on to star as Venom/Brock, with established Spider-Man producers Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach on board alongside Zombieland director Ruben Fleischer. October 5, 2018, has been earmarked as a release date, so Sony is going to have to get a move on. Put that with the news that a film starring two other Spider-Man allies/antagonists – Black Cat and Silver Sable – was also in development, it raises a lot of questions how you would make movies about Spider-Man characters without the main man himself Spider-Man.…

Michael Keaton ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’

Variety caught up with Michael Keaton, who plays the villain The Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming. But apparently he’s not all bad, as Keaton alluded to in this new interview. Keaton also revealed that Marvel shifted their schedule to accommodate him, as he originally had to turn the role down over conflicts. Here are some excerpts: I do think though, in all your roles, you bring an inherent likability, whether you want to or not. It’s been a while since you played a truly villainous role. Yeah, Vulture, recently. But not…

Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows #1 Artist Variant…

Amazing Spider-Man #17 Review Dan Slott

By Matthew Mueller Someone should probably buy The Jackal a dictionary because it doesn’t seem he understands what the term Good Guy means. Writer Dan Slott continues to build to his upcoming 90’s reanimation project, The Clone Conspiracy, and the latest issue of Amazing Spider-Man adds two more characters to the dead no more pile, but we’ll get to that in a bit. First, it should be pointed out just how little Peter Parker is actually in his own book, but the upside of that is the increased screen time…

Since 2007, Dan Slott has been a major part of Spider-Man’s life as one part of the rotating team of writers on “Amazing Spider-Man” during the “Brand New Day” era.

Amazing Spider-Man 14 Review

As a whole, Spider-verse may be Marvel’s best attempt at an event comic in years. The core premise and conflict engrossing. the way it celebrates Spider-Man’s long, colorful history is delightful. Even the tie-ins tend to be well-crafted and very relevant to the core storyline. That said, there have been flaws with the approach to Spider-verse, and those flaws threaten to derail the whole experience in this final issue. Amazing Spider-Man #14 is almost entirely consumed by the final battle between the surviving Spiders and the Inheritors. Everyone’s path finally…

Amazing Spider-Man #11 Review

Spider-Verse has already gotten a great deal of mileage out of cramming as many versions of Spider-Man onto the page as possible and watching the chaos that unfolds as a result. There’s plenty more of that in this third chapter. However, more compelling than Spider-mania is the long-awaited confrontation between Peter Parker and the man who stole his body and calls himself the Superior Spider-Man. That confrontation is the highlight of another memorable chapter in the Spider-Verse saga. Dan Slott picks up from the chaos of issue #10 as multiple…
