Obviously the amazing spider-man is trash and the artwork is so bad but I’m still not sold on an adult Spider-Man

I mean, if they undo ALL of the Krakoa era, wouldn't that effectively make this be the LONGEST Age of Apocalypse style event ever? I don't know if I like that or not.

43:52 – 44:18 : "Age of Apocalypse discussion"

It just popped into my head, and I don't think I am the first to theorize this, but I do hope I'm wrong (unless it's written spectacularly, then I don't care), but I do not think it's going to be the "Age of APOCALYPSE", but it is going to be the "Age of GENISIS", Apocalypse's wife version of that area of x-men….

Sal, are you implying Chechetto is never on his A game?

Love learning about Sal and Tiff, just contextualizes the show and you guys as people. Sending love❤️ 10/10 show as always Thank you!

"Mr. & Mrs. Cage: Til Death do us Punch"

Love issue one , I really just want a well written mj

Question unrelated to this episode: in the She-Hulk TV show, am I hallucinating that Daredevil's costume contains purple instead of red? There's a line where She-Hulk says his costume is colored like mustard and ketchup. But EVERY strongly lit pic I've seen of Daredevil has him in yellow and purple (even his posable figure). And I've never seen purple ketchup.
This is driving me insane.

RE: Ultimate Spider-Man… I'm reserving judgment, but I don't think you can get a decent Spider-Man out of a guy that comes into that kind of power as someone pushing 40. That's a lifetime of compromises, it's priorities like a wife and kids that should 90% of time result in Spider-Man saying "sorry, call 911, I'll be back after the recital/softball game/science fair." Or farming out to the nearest cape because it's date night.

Also, from MJ's perspective, it doesn't really matter what the cosmos wants her husband to be or how supportive she should be, it's a fundamentally sad position for a spouse to be perpetually neglected when their partner's justification is always "well then I guess I'll just let people die." But after 10 years of marriage… yeah, you kinda gotta decide when you want to assume that responsibility.

I'm not saying Hickman won't find a way to sell this new Peter, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I think he would have gotten more mileage out of Miles.

To be a counter to Sal's opinion, I think the Nightwing cover works just fine if Damien has been catified from Beast World, I tend to catch up after stuff finishes so I'm not sure. But that meme cover worked for me. If they dedicated a month to "meme covers" like when they do themed alt covers for the whole brand sometimes I'd be less enthused though.

No Zorro review???

Crushed is the wrong word.
Ultimate spider man, in its one issue, took the amazing spiderman run by wells and some parts of Slott, beat it up, broke every bone in its body, ripped off its intestines, buried it in a coffin and then peed all over its grave.

I’m guessing it’s no coincidence that 6160 Peter is the age 1610 Peter would have been if he’d aged in real time.

USM spoke to elder millennials in the early 00’s, and he’s speaking to us again. Unfortunately the message has changed 😢

Loved the book. Can’t wait for more.

New ultimate spiderman "eats your lunch."

Just wanted to say that Sal's interviews remain fantastic! Thanks for visiting so many interesting creators!

I just get this bad feeling that they are going to do some sort of Flashpoint Paradox time travel Butterfly Affect Comic event on Peter Parker.

On Ultimate Peter, I think what we're seeing that Peter Parker is feeling a unique depression– he's built a life he's proud of but there's still something missing and it's like he's guilty for not actually feeling happy and satisfied. Very interesting, if that's the way Hickman plays it.

He's also a Peter who never really have to step up and be fully independent, so while he had his hardships (losing his parents at 15, Aunt may), he still had a pretty solid group around him. Unlike 616 Peter who kinda had to learn to be independent and sorta isolated and self-reliant while he was relatively young

I liked the world that was set up in the new ultimate, but I really didn’t like that Tony gave Peter his powers. I wish Peter would have gotten his powers in a somewhat traditional manner, just 20 years later than it was supposed to happen, a way to have the universe say Peter will be Spider-Man, even if the maker stopped it from happening originally, it will happen one way or another. I guess there is an aspect to it being a choice and now u have to deal with the consequences, I just find one hero giving another powers very uninteresting.

I loved Issue 1 of Ultimate Spider-Man and now I’m hooked! I’ll agree to some extent that I’m not that interested what everyone else is doing in this universe but there is such sense of “what this new and strange place”. Ultimate invasion and Universe are okay, but good set ups to THIS great book. I’m all in on Spider-Man of this universe cause he’s the Spider-Man I’ve wanted to see for a while, and I’m excited to see where this goes.
