If you clicked this, then you did so willingly.

So, how have you taken the death of Peter Parker and Doc Oc taking over as Spidey?

the current one. It is 616, and Doc Oc is "The Superior Spider-Man."

We should know better, because we are better.

I don't read Marvel, but killing of Peter Parker seems like a bad move. That is like killing off Batman and replacing him with Joker (I know Bats did die, but at least Nightwing took up the mantle.). I think Doc Oc will be Spider-Man for a few years, then Peter will come back and take over his body again.

Seems a bit short, but much of the reaction I have seen to this change is negative.

Off topic: do you read any Valiant series?

I haven't. Good?

NON FACET NOBIS CALCITRARE VESTRUM PERNǢUM

Really? That's a bit odd, however I haven't kept up with any comic series in a while.

It's actually Doc Oc's consciousness in Peter Parker's body, so it'll look the same. Just a different personality, and different motivations, I think.

He threw down a glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up now you're gone
The choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.

Haven't read the comics since around 2004, but seems good if they bring Peter back.

I have never read a Spider-Man comic in my life, but I do know that Stan Lee turns 90 today.

I don't know, because I never followed Marvel. However, ten months does seem rather quick to go back on such a big decision (that is only around 20 issues, right?). How they get Peter back is another matter entirely, but maybe Peter's memories overpower Doc's. Wasn't there also one line about a character having a device that can talk to the dead?

Yes, Valiant is great. Archer and Armstrong and XO Manowar are the two I am reading and they both have great moments. A&A is the only comic that can use kung-fu N@zi lamas and pull it off well enough that you laugh out loud.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

This is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen in any comic book ever. That's like Lex Luther becoming Superm-

Oh wait that's happened. Never mind.

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

Sounds like when they killed off Chewbacca.

But I can't see this sticking around for too long, especially given the movies and the general nature of comic books. Probably a year or two at the latest.

My troll sense is tingling.

You're kidding, right? *sigh* Just when I started wanting to get back into Marvel they pull -blam!- like this.

Didn't they make him a Black Spider Man now? What's all this Doc Oc nonsense?

  • 12.28.2012 8:01 AM PDT

I saw the spoilers weeks ago, and I still think it's -blam!- stupid.

I love Spider-Man, and Dan Slott was doing a pretty good job, but this is just dumb. To think that he ended ASM on issue 700 with that is kind of annoying. But I guess he wanted to do something to get people to talk about his writing.

And for the record, I didn't think One More Day/Brand New Day was that bad because at least it had positive effects on future issues (ASM got a lot better after it).

Glad I took a break from ASM after Spider-Island.

Pick one.

Slott totally put in a free way out of this one too. They can just say "well both of their personalities are in their, Peter's just took over" or something. It's obvious there wasn't much confidence in the decision, and that's kind of annoying.

I dont know if I'd put this on the level of One Moment in Time or 90s Spider-Man stuff yet, but it's pretty bad. I wonder if Scarlet Spider is any good, I could always read that for my fix I guess.
