So I've always liked the synthetic symbiote suit from the 2017 Spider-Man show even though it didn't last long, so I decided to mix it with Tom Hollands Spider-Man, which he is one of my favorites Spider-Man so I decided to see how it looked and this was the result of my drawing.

Video Games Is it crazy to say that I think Kraven in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is the best adaptation of Kraven in any form.

Yes, the game's story has flaws in regards to Venom and the symbiote, but when it comes to Kraven I think they made the greatest version of Kraven ever. The whole thing about him dying and wanting to go out to an equal is unreal, inspired by Kraven's Last Hunt, his actual design/appearance is awesome, and his dialogue (ESPECIALLY IN THE AUDIO MESSAGES WITH HIS FAMILY) are spine-tingling

Discussion Villain Exchange: Kraven for Bane! For they are somewhat similar...

I mean people used to compare Bane to Venom when in reality Kraven was more of a match for him.

Both where on a quest to break their enemies Batman & Spiderman. And study them.

Both used a serum to advance strength.

Both had messed up childhoods Bane in prison and Kraven trained to hunt.

Both stole the identity of their enemies Kraven buried spiderman alive and wore the black suit.

Both have buried their enemies alive.

Both killed a loved one of their enemies Alfred and Kaine.

Both have clone children.

Both fought dinosaurs.

And somehow both become mutant cats at one point.

All in all if they where to switch enemies how well would they fare? If Bane fight a spiderman I think it should be Miles he needs more enemies and not some of peter rogue gallery.

As for Kraven it be prep time with him stalking Batman until he ready for the hunt should he bring his army like in the game?

A Brief Review of the Timeline of Peter's Marriage

7 Upvotes

Okay so... here's the thing.

  • 1963 - Spider-Man's comic starts. Peter Parker struggles with balancing his life as a hero with his life as a student and a dutiful nephew for Aunt May.
  • 1973 - Gwen Stacy, who up to this point had been strongly established as Peter's true love, is killed during Peter's fight with the Green Goblin. In the aftermath, MJ and Peter work through their grief together and eventually become an item, though for a long time, Peter continues to conceal his secret identity from her. (The background for this was that killing someone was seen as a way to reset Peter's status quo, and Gwen drew the short straw because the writers were struggling to find stories to tell with her.)
  • 1984 - MJ reveals that she's known Peter was Spider-Man since almost the very start of his career.
  • 1987 - Peter and MJ get married.
  • 1994 - The Clone Saga begins. It's been made clear that a big motivation for the Clone Saga was to reset Spider-Man's status quo by having Peter retire with MJ and their oncoming baby, while the clone of Peter (AKA Ben Reilly) takes over, with the reveal that he's actually the REAL Peter Parker and the one married to MJ is the clone. Over the course of fan backlash and editorial changes mid-production over the next THREE YEARS, this doesn't end up happening.
  • 1997-1999 - After the Clone Saga debacle, Ben Reilly becomes the Scarlet Spider, Peter and MJ's baby is stillborn (really kidnapped by Osborn, but not really) Aunt May dies (turns out this was an impostor and May was really alive, really a shell game by Osborn AGAIN) and all of this leads up to the reboot of ASM with Vol 2, where Peter has retired from being Spider-Man but is promptly brought back into the game because of Mattie Franklin masquerading as Spider-Man (which in turn leads to her getting her own solo book after Peter puts the webs back on, which takes like a couple months tops).
  • 2007 - OMD happens and Peter and MJ's marriage is erased by Mephisto.

So look: Gwen's relation with Peter was always fraught because he never revealed to her that he was Spider-Man, and she hated Spider-Man because of his role in her father's death. The writers spent the better part of ten years milking that story and then ran out of ideas on what to do with the situation. So they killed her and then unexpectedly reaped the benefits of causing comic books' big coming of age moment.

Over the next TWENTY YEARS, Peter and MJ go from grieving Gwen's loss to being married, and a good portion of that is spent with them being happily married, with MJ at least partially onboard with Peter continuing to be Spider-Man. But by 1994, editorial had come to the conclusion that they already wanted out of that situation so they could reset Peter's status quo AGAIN.

They tried to have it both ways with the Clone Saga, and for a bunch of reasons it didn't work out, and it takes them years to finally find an exit ramp that DOES work, which is OMD.

They knew they couldn't just kill MJ -- 1999 was when Gail Simone started writing about Women In Refrigerators and it was clear that they couldn't get lightning to strike twice -- so they needed another exit, and eventually they found it. And we've spent the last TWENTY YEARS arguing about it.

Here's the point: who's idea was it to let Peter and MJ get married if it was evident, seemingly from the very jump, that editorial was not going to be interested in letting that be Peter's new permanent status quo going forward? What changed that made them decide that they NEEDED to reset him to being single and constantly shit outta luck as his baseline state? Have the last twenty years of him BEING in that state (after twenty years of being steady with MJ) resulted in more stories about Peter Parker strugglebussing with being Spider-Man?

When those twenty years include the Ultimate Spider-Man, the NEW Ultimate Spider-Man, the Superior Spider-Man, a half-dozen Spider-Verse events where Peter is but one of hundreds of Spider-Mans, not all of whom are variants of Peter? As well as NORMAN OSBORN becoming Spider-Man while Peter is off-planet for a year? The Beyond storyline where Ben is a corporate Spider-Man while Peter's in the hospital? Did resetting the status quo with OMD even WORK?

Did Marvel's editorial really get what they wanted in the first place? And did OMD really facilitate all of that happening? Or could it all have happened without OMD happening AT ALL?

To be clear: this isn't to say that OMD was the right move, or a good story, or a bad story, but instead, it's about how insisting on a single unbroken continuity over SIXTY-PLUS YEARS introduces constraints that you wouldn't have if you let folks just tell the stories they want to tell and don't insist on a status quo that everything needs to return to before the next creative team comes onto the book. Especially since every creative team is going to tell their own stories regardless, and that's been true ever since 1963.

Anyhow, there's the timeline review. Who knows what the hell is gonna happen in ASM 1000 that'll top all the nonsense we've already been through.

Movies Looking at Norman's and Otto's inventions they are actually quite impressive for MCU standards

Norman's goblin formula made him far stronger than any MCU super soldier and yes it has the insanity side effect but it's not guaranteed given Harry didn't become crazy (and MCU super serums also have a similar effect where they enhance bad traits of the subject)

Otto on the other hand created his mechanical arms which are so strong they were evenly matched with Spider-Man wearing the Iron Spider, a suit created by Tony Stark himself

Not to mention both are knowledgeable in nanotechnology which in the MCU was only available until Infinity War (Banner didn't know what nanotechnology was when he saw Iron Man suit up in IW while Otto immediately recognized it in NWH) so all in all Raimiverse was actually quite advanced technologically speaking

Spider-Man is a prime example of how being one of the most popular and commercially profitable characters ever isn't always a good thing - Marvel Comics get lazier with publishing quality comics for Spider-Man the hero when it's assured that Spider-Man the brand will sell those comics anyway.

23 Upvotes

This is just an honest observation - I stopped reading Spider-Man comics consistently since Dan Slott's run ended so I cannot personally comment on the quality of more recent Spider-Man comics, but being exposed to this fandom as much as I am there's no need for me to read them to conclude that Zeb Wells's run was so awful it pissed off many fans.

I pondered on why Zeb Wells's Spider-Man comics were allowed to be continually written and published if they were as bad as you lot have said - the logical conclusion I drew was that Marvel Comics will put in little effort on fixing Spider-Man comics so long as the cash are still flowing in, they are a business at the end of the day and they don't care if you love or hate what they publish so long as you pay.

From a fan's perspective, I also don't understand why you would continue reading Spider-Man comics when they are awful, let alone pay for them to essentially support what they do. Why not take a break and read something else that you actually enjoy? In my case, I started reading Fantastic Four and became a fan; that way the Marvel editorial is more likely to go "oh shit! we are not selling well on the Spider-Man front, lets actually make changes to bring readers back".

I ironically think Marvel Comics is still more rational with how they are handling Spider-Man comics than fans who complain about the comics while continuing to pay for them - like a drug dealer who stops putting in the effort to make their drugs potent because the hopeless addicts can't refuse them anyway, a bad fix for an addict is still better than no fix and to the dealer it makes no difference so long as he gets paid.

Discussion Are some of Marc Webb’s plans for The Amazing Spider-Man being used in the Spider-Man video games for PlayStation?

Post image
10 Upvotes

In Spider-Man 2 (PS5), Harry Osborn has a disease just like his variant in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 does. In this Game, his father Norman Osborn is completely unaffected by the disease. (For Now?)

Also, The Sinister Six was a project that Sony Studios have been trying their luck at sticking the landing for years. In Spider-Man (PS4), there is a brief fight scene with the entire Sinister Six who’s lineup differs but includes some of Webb’s vision: Rhino, Vulture, Electro, Doc Ock and Scorpion.

Even Kraven The Hunter took out the entire Sinister Six on his own in Spider-Man PS5 and then the following year he received his very own Solo Movie. Kraven was also rumored to have been a planned feature in Andrew’s Universe as well.

By the way, Webb cut The Symbiote out from TASM 2, and the alien is a key plot point in the PS5 sequel.

Discussion I think people take the self-insert aspect of Peter Parker a little too far. He’s meant to be relatable, but he’s not supposed to basically be you. Peter is his own character with his own personality, flaws, experiences, and characteristics.
