Spider-man's new costume + travesty on pg. 2
Moderator: EG Members
Yeah, that's Ben Reily's costume, the-clone-who-thought-he-was-real-but-turned-out-to-be-a-clone.
Morlun did rip his eye out, but still retains his two eyes, since his old body's just an empty shell right now. WTF?

I don't think half the toilet seats in the world are as clean as I should like; and only half of those are half as clean as they deserve. - tsubaimomo, July 26, 2010 3:00 am

What are you talking about?Eldo wrote:Think about what era it was, man. That shit was common occurence.
It's not even about age.
That's completely out of character for both of them.
And then one of these twins tries to seduce Peter?
Cocoon, costume changes, ripping Peter's eye out or whatever else I've heard is nothing compared to this.
This is unbe-fucking-lievable.
Talk about raping my fucking childhood.
Good lord, were you serious? Holy crap, I didn't even know about that, nor did I know that one of the twins tried to seduce Parker. Was that some recent bullshit storyline?
What are the writers trying to accomplish by butchering the characters? And what the hell are Marvel doing green lighting shit like this?

You thought I wasn't serious?
I didn't think it was serious either when I first read it, but it's fucking true man.
I've been playing it cool, keeping the Spider-man fanboy inside me at bay after hearing all these changes, but hearing that made the nerd inside me snap.
Gwen Stacy with Norman Osborn?
No-fucking-thanks.
That's retarded.
EDIT: I've made this travesty very eye-catching in case somebody misses it.

Yeah, I don't blame you, that shit is fucked up. I'd be too angry to type too when I found that out. Goddamnit I wish that writers would stop gettign this bug up their ass that they have to take spidey and other comic books heros to a "totally new direction". Go with what works, original non-mystical had both eyes no pity sex with the green goblin spider-man characters worked fine for over 40 years, STOP FUCKING WITH IT. For example, stuff like the Ultimates I think is interesting, new takes for a new age, OK, but a lot of the key happenings, characters and their relationsships are still the same. But when you start fucking too much with it and making it into some kind of comic book soap opera, no thanks.Femto wrote:LordMune wrote:Since you've made it so eye-catching, I choose to inform you that it's "100%", not "%100". Change it before you embarrass yourself further, you silly man.
I realized it when I mistyped it, but I forgot to change it.
I blame the nerd anger that is flowing through my veins.

The problem is that it's not even about fucking up Spider-man anymore (which they are doing anyway), the stories just sound plain bad.
I mean, Gwen Stacy sleeping with Norman Osborn before dying and giving birth to twins, one of which grows to adulthood all of a sudden and then tries to hit on Peter Parker?
That's just plain fucking stupid.

I think I should read other comics like New Avengers or something just for Spider Man, they can't fuck him up anymore than it is in Avengers.

All I have to say is that is the reason why manga is slowly taking over the comic world. Manga series (except Naruto of course) know when a storyline is dead and usually just stop, not "take it in a different direction by fucking over the original".

i agree... that is an advantage of manga... the stories end... spider man has been in his 20s since the 1950s.. he's older than most of our parents... there should be a point when a hero gets to retire... let spidey hang up his number 23 jersey... let him be remembered... dont kill him off... just have him move on... after 50+ years of kicking ass in new york... you'd think the criminals there would understand.. ah fuck it... i need cereal

it's been ages since i actually read a spiderman comic. but damn talk about a big change. I have to say though that this costume isn't the worst they have done so far. They could have gone the way they did in of the side stories. THe spiderman 2040 or 2340 one... dunno exactly which it was anymore... as i said been ages. In that one he uses 4 bionical arms just like doc ock.

That is just absolutely fucking stupid.Femto wrote:The legs are mechanical, I think.
Tony Stark designed the costume, hence the red and yellow motif.
