Spider-Man Amazing Spider-Man general series discussion (spoilers)

[E]

Plus, it's not like Marvel has never de-aged a character before if they wanted to, Magneto and Juggernaut come to mind.

Tony Stark.

 

[Iceshadow]

Tony Stark.

Yeah, what's the deal with that anyway? I wasn't really reading comics at the time.

 

[Captain Canuck]

Waid's Electro arc was terribly boring.

Van Lente's Sandman arc is already leaps and bounds better!

If they ever go back to once a month with one writer, I hope Van Lente is it.

I agree completely, also that gag with Betty was hilarious.

i don't remember, which gag with Betty?

 

[Iceshadow]

i don't remember, which gag with Betty?

She's talking to him and turns around but only sees an open window:

"Spider-Man?"

"I'm over here Betty." *cue Spidey standing on the other side of her the entire time*

"AAHHHH!"

"What!?"

oh, right.

 

[Iceshadow]

So the Sandman arc ended on a decidedly melancholic note, but it was still a great two issues overall.

 

[Captain Canuck]

oh it's only a two-issue arc?

i haven't read it yet.

[checks marvel.com]

and next is Joe Kelly on Rhino.

...how much you wanna bet Joe K makes a 'horny' joke?

 

[Iceshadow]

Dammit! Didn't he just do the Electro arc!?

 

[Captain Canuck]

Dammit! Didn't he just do the Electro arc!?

Nope. That was Mark Waid.

JK just did the Deadpool arc.

 

[Captain Canuck]

Just read Issue #616

wow! Fred Van Lente is amazing.

This story was so sad!

 

[Captain Canuck]

Spider-Man: Mysteries of The Gauntlet

 

[E]

Yeah, what's the deal with that anyway? I wasn't really reading comics at the time.

I wasn't aware of it before Extremis, mostly because I didn't read Iron Man before Extremis. There it was specifically changed to Gulf War and not Vietnam or whatever it was before.

If you haven't read Extremis you should check it out. It's really good.

 

[Ice]

According to his blog, Paolo Rivera is already working on Amazing Spider-Man issues #637-640.

 

[Captain Canuck]

Just read ASM #617

wow wow wow

These past three issues have been SO good!

Again, I think Marvel needs to up the rating from A to T+ (at least when Joe Kelly writes)

Spoiler

New Rhino grabbed a horse by its neck and broke it over old Rhino's head. It was bloody.

 

[ProjectX2]

I loved the latest issue. This is a big deal because I don't like Amazing Spider-Man at all.

The Rhinos are awesome.

 

[Iceshadow]

Very good issue, who's writing the Mysterio arc next?

 

[Zombipanda]

Kelley and Van Lente should be the only two Spider-Man writers.

That is all.

 

[Captain Canuck]

Dan Slott

Kelley and Van Lente should be the only two Spider-Man writers.

That is all.

Yep.
