Spider-Man '94 as you truly imagined it

Bump if you're reading

What?

>>150179422
>Cliffhanger resolved off screen
heh

>>150179427
Wth is that face Pete

>>150179436
He's so ugly.

>>150179436
>Ezekial is here too
I'm now wondering why they bothered getting JMD on this when it's all JMS stuff. Is it just for Kaine?

>>150179449
This art is real bad. JMD deserves better

>>150179445
>Totem
oh no

>>150179462
Why does he looks Kiefer Sutherland lmao.

>>150179449
I hate Vermin but I hate Morlun more

But of course, TAS was just too good not to have it sprinkled with some Morlun bullshit

>>150179474
>Actually throwing punches
Would've been interesting if they kept the no punches clause in the fights

>>150179480
Been a while since I saw the show, why is Aunt Anna such a cunt again? Is it explained?

>>150179485
>Teaching too
They really are just overlaying JMS's run on top of TAS

>>150179468
how did TAS Peter go from a gigachad to a cancer patient

>>150179488
Always hated that foul crone

Why didn't they bother to make it look like the show?

>>150179484
Its easier to draw I guess.

>>150179419
I would rather see Mr Negative or Janice Beetle then more fucking Morlun

>>150179514
Yeah but suppose I'm thinking about authenticity as a follow on from the show

>>150179523
Oh

>>150179523
based MJ

The art is mostly okay but the faces throw me off so much.

>>150179529
he'll be back

>>150179533
If you liked this support your LCS or whatever

>>150179523
Fucking finally

>Morlun
lame, when is Judas Traveller showing up

>sins of the father chapter xvii

>>150179436
Imagine getting cucked by your water clone.

>>150179442
>>150179533
So Morlun is Ezekiel, and the Kaines are Morlun's clones?

>>150179468
If I was the editor or JMD I would tell the artist to do Peter's face again and send as many pictures of his square jaw from the show as reference.

>>150179454
Why didn't they even try to make the art match the Animated Series?

>>150179544
Was he even in the animated show?

>>150179600
I like that Peter is shown as competent and capable in fights, refreshing.

>>150179582
More like Peter's clones, with Peter giving him psychic damage and everything. Also Kaine's hair is brown

>>150179468
The face of the guy dommed to be stuck with MJ because of the readers' unhealthy obsession

>>150179468
WHERE IS YOUR CHIN?

>>150179638
I think he's pretty happy with MJ all things concerned, far from "dommed" wouldn't you say Polish man?

Those faces are so awful it taints the whole issue, Jesus.

>>150179407 (OP)
They did all this, but they couldn't get John Semper and an artist from the show to just adapt his script for the final season? I would've went to a store and bought physical copies.

>>150179425
Come on, man. We've been waiting HOW long and you do this to us?

>>150179422

>>150179433
> A Tale we'll tell....eventually
Oh, so NEVER. NEVER IS THE ANSWER YOU J.J. ABRAMS HACK! (I will apologize if they're working out adaption rights with Semper on the down low.)

Also: I hate that they're going in this direction. It's lazy, hackneyed writing and not what I want or what the show would've done. And we KNOW that because Semper actually posted his scripts.

>>150179638
>dommed to be stuck with MJ
I know Peter and MJ are freaky but I didn't know they were into that.

>>150179695
>Man who thought he'd lost all hope in Marvel loses last additional hope he didn't even know he still had
Fuck this shitty book.

>>150179668
Apparently, they didn't even get in touch with TAS folks.

>>150179462
Finally.

Also, I have to say. I had a situation where I was told a close family member died and mourned them HARD for three days, only to find out I was misinformed and they were alive. NEVER would I react this way they do in fiction where "it's too hard to trust again" or whatever. It was like a miracle getting them back and if anything it made me feel like things were MORE LIKELY to work out because it was like they had come back from the dead in a way.

I know a lot of authors don't have a way of knowing that, but I just can't put up with storylines that go that direction anymore after that.

>>150179425
wait what?

>>150179485
She was just always riding Peter's butt. No real reason, but if you need one I think it might be because he always has to go running off and "puts himself in danger" by photographing Spider-Man.

>>150179687
Nta, MJ’s great, but the 1994 animated series is the rare case where Felicia is developed enough to give her a run for her money as a viable love interest for Peter.

>>150179507
I feel like they don't care to actually continue the show
>>150179522
Same. I feel like Semper could pull it off and 94 always had a lot of magic with Madam Web and Dormammu but it would be cool to see something else.

>>150179742
I think she had somebody she wanted to fix MJ up with, and Peter was just a favor she did for May that ended up sticking around. I haven't rewatched TAS since they first put it up on the Marvel website though.

>>150179523
Aunt Anna was a sweetheart in the comics

>>150179485
>that episode where she sicks Punisher on Peter

>>150179638
They're married, Anon

>>150179425
>>150179427
>>150179433
I'm beginning to suspect that JMS just wanted to write Pre-OMD Peter again and is just using '94 as a means to circumvent the Spider-Office...

>>150179433
What a cop out. A single page to bridge us from the series finale to now.

>>150179488
Sure, Anna could’ve been more tactful, but she’s not wrong. It’s irresponsible for a married couple to depend on an elderly relative who’s too kind to refuse.

>>150179863
did Peter ever get his own place in the show? I always recall him living with Aunt May

>>150179862
Ai does it better and the artist should feel ashamed.

>>150179488
>it still seems brand new to us.
>every day feels like a blessing
JM wrote it with his penis.

>>150179863
Yeah, it's always extra painful when the crazy old bat is right.

>>150179897
I don't think so, he never really left the Bugle either.

>>150179902
Aunt Anna is right then, Peter is a leech. Get a proper job so can support your wife and the woman who's been taking care of you since you were a kid.

>>150179638
instead of trying to feed on misery have you tried suicide?

I don't hate it, I think I know what J. M. DeMatteis is doing, the TAS ended in 98, very close to 2000s and Morlun, I know people hate him now because of Clone Saga, but Morlun wasn't always hated, he is the guy who kickstarted JMS's run. Ezekiel also JMS run. Peter mentioned finding a teaching position, again JMS run. So he's making a Spider-man TAS that mixes and matches elements of early 2000s Spider-man comics trying to emulate how John Semper was doing it at the time, he also frequently tried to adapt modern storylines along with classic ones. And right now I am fairly ok with the issue (besides artwork) and I think Morlun hate is overblown. I think it could work because it's not Morlun by Slott and trying to adapt totem storyline, the very early 2000s storyline by JMS into TAS like how TAS would've done it makes sense.

>>150179898
To be fair, this is dogshit also, bigger problem is that this artwork just doesn't look anything like TAS.

>>150179898
now its too generic and misses her high cheek bones and cleft chin

>>150179427
>>150179433
What's the point of using Spider-Chad if you're going to turn him into an ugly pencil neck?

>>150179953
I hear what you're saying but my hate for Morlun overrides logic.

>>150179953
Only their clothes are the same though. The artstyle detracts from the original so the atmosphere is also different and introducing 4 new villains in 12 pages makes it too different to consider a continuation (for me)

>>150179419
>Morlun
And into the shitter it goes. Thanks, Obama.

>>150179445

>MJ is back
>On '94
Retcon I guess? Wasn't she like a water clone or whatever?

>>150179462
Hooray!

>>150180310
>>150179433
Ah, OK. nvm

>>150179953
I'm willing to give this Morlun a chance both because DeMatteis is the one writing him and because this one doesn't have the stink of Spider-Verse and its sequels on him. That said, I wasn't exactly fond of his return in The Other despite having been perfectly fine with his debut story.

>>150180310
This is the real MJ, Peter saved her, they've deliberately ignored that story, according to JMD, they'll tell it if sales are good. Why they're willing to work backwards god only knows

>>150180342
Well the sales will probably be awful because holy ahit is the artwork awful in addition to not even attempting to emulate the style of the show.

>>150180342
>>150180356
Yeah, it feels like they are given just enough budget/people to test the waters. They would need Ultimate money if they actually want something more substantial.

Also,
>Morlun
>Again

>>150180374
To me it almost feels like the book has been set up to fail so they can point at it and say "See, people hate a happily married Peter Parker, especially if it's to MJ."

>>150180356
Yeah, there's too much of the 2000s woven into this, and JMD used all of his 'vanity' choices for the villains (Molten Man and Vermin were used in his famous Spec run, which is out in omnibus form now, so it's a bit of an ad), I also would have liked Bruce the Gargoyle to have shown up in the scene where MJ storms off

We're bringing back Spider-man 1994!

No.
>Are you using the old art style?
No,
>Are you using the old writers?
No,
>are you using the old looks?
No.
>What are you using?
Morlun!

>>150179668
It’s weird because DeMatteis is by all means a better writer than Semper, but I would want Semper on this book and I don’t like how this barely feels like TAS.

>>150179425
Ok where was she? what happened to her?,
last thing I remember is that she was lost somewhere and there was a water clone and by the end of the series Madam web promised Peter to help him find the real MJ as thanks for saving the multiverse or something.

>>150179425
>>150179433
Meh, I never thought the “how” of MJ’s rescue was that important. In the show, it came off as a guarantee instead of another adventure. A shame they’re using it as sequel bait.

Jmd kino as always

>>150179470
Peter will become one of the Lost Kids

DC at least tries when it comes to art in cartoon tie-in books.

>>150179488
Why is it "Freeload"? is specifically the line I hear Peter's cartoon voice in my head from?

>>150179529
So is this Kaine coming back or are we getting a new test tube baby?

Well, that was a rollercoaster. I'm intrigued.

>>150179407 (OP)
Just make it look like the cartoon faces. Peter looks like a faggot.

Having this art on a TAS continuation written by JMD genuinely feels like sabotage.

>>150182334
that stuff would probably fit well in a 67 continuation comic, vampires that specifically eat on spider people and clone shit isn't weirder then Greek Gods on mars and higher dimensional beings

>>150182627
Why does Peter look like he's about to punch her face in?
She's already dead, man. Relax.

There's a script online from Semper showing how Spider-Man rescued Mary Jane, I imagine JMD/Marvel don't want to just adapt that or do a completely different take on it. Better to just assume that's canon and continue on.

>>150182334
For people who watched it, but don't remember what happened. It's nostalgiawank.

>>150179813
It's not Strazynski, it's DeMatties, who wrote Kraven's Last Hunt. He worked on the animated show back in the day so it's not entirely divorced from the official staff

>>150182295
Doubt it, the editor on this book is the guy who worked with JMD on his Spider-Man miniseries from recent years and likely supports this. I think it's more of a budget problem
Disney gives money to Marvel but clearly not enough, which prompts Marvel to keep pushing constant relaunches and variant covers to justify Disney giving more money. Since older creators may have a higher salary they then likely have to cut costs somewhere else

>>150184239
There's a solution that would allow Marvel to make more money, but Spider-editorial doesn't want to hear it.

I'm wondering if it's an issue of the current Spider-Office being so obsessed with recapturing their own childhood nostalgia that they are incapable of comprehending any other generation's

>>150182334
For me. Also for JMD and Khazem who seemingly got their Kaine book pitch denied.

>>150184239
Man I wish the Greg Weisman Spidey book had been under this editor instead.

>>150184182
>Stan Lee
>Len Wein

>JMD
A surprising number of comic people worked on that show. I was about to say this practice needs to come back, but then I remembered WHO modern Marvel writers are.

>>150184668
Yeah like, Slott worked on the 2017 Spider-Man show (as consulting producer) and Joe Quesada, Jeph Loeb, Man of Action (Joe Kelly, Joe Casey, Duncan Rouleau, Steven T Seagle), and Bendis worked on the USM show.

>>150184698
woof. kinda explains a lot

>>150184668
That's the funny part, it IS being practiced. Wells and Ziglar were on She-Hulk's writing room. The latter even got 5 seconds of spotlight over complaining about pay.

>>150184698
JMD also wrote for the 2017 Spidey cartoon. I think he may have been the one behind the decision to bring in MJ and give the show it's happy ending

>>150184769
That picture speaks louder about about She-Hulk series than any words can.

>>150184276
It was funny seeing someone on twitter get upset over Spider-Man 94 being a nostalgia fest days ago while being blind to how ASM since OMD is basically a nostalgia fest to 70s/80s Spider-Man and to shit from even BND and Slott and Wells' runs

>>150179529
>Man-Rat
Of course JMD worked Vermin in somehow.

>>150182009
I wouldn't put it past JMD to have this Kaine come back later but I think the implication is that there are extra Kaines>>150182009

I'm a zoomer and JMD is my favourite Spider-Man writer

>>150180797
>I never thought the “how” of MJ’s rescue was that important. In the show, it came off as a guarantee instead of another adventure
Same here. I never once thought that was any kind of cliffhanger, but simply Peter finally getting a well-deserved "Happily Ever After" after all he's recently been through.

>>150179695
CLEARLY theyre working on spidey 94 behind the scenes assuming Spidey didnt eat it in Xmen's war

>>150179638
they hate you because you speak the truth

>>150179638
>>150190104

>>150179407 (OP)
Why is the art so shit?

>>150179695
Semper made some Spider-verse faggotry with bullshit like Spider-Gwen tacked on. All post-hock shit (which is here too, which can also fuck all). If he wants to run with his ORIGINAL plans, that'd be great. Right now there's nothing very '94 coming out of '94.

>>150190325
He’s not even a good writer these days. His Rebirth Cyborg run was mediocre and the Green Lantern movie he co-wrote was awful.

>>150190202
It's a nostalgia mini, no budget for a good artist.

>Totem shit

Couldn't fucking resist, could they?

>>150179415
Yeesh, didn’t even give Semper a call huh?

>>150191012
Do you think JMD really asks that much? I dunno. If I were editorial and I knew JMD if he tried hard would put out something decent and inoffensive (maybe not as good as he once was) so then if you put more into the art that means there less risk overall and it would probably sell better, and this is combined with revisiting the TAS cartoon for nostalgiabux showing even less risk.
But nah they skimped out on the art and JMD is also forced probably to leave the MJ story for later which just hampers both the punchiness of starting right where we left off and also signals to the readers that there is probably another series coming that will do this story if I read that blurb correctly. It just kinda rubs me the wrong way. Like I guess they're scared because it has been so long that if they start there they won't be able to live up to that cliffhanger?

>>150191603
From what I've seen Marvel really doesn't give a fuck about their veteran writers

>>150191525
It will forever be something that irks people but totems are still cool to me. Spider-verse stuff beyond TAS isn't.
The way JMD is presenting it here is fine because as of right now it is not any Spider-verse shit. Maybe it will happen in the last issue and yet again they will do another shitty event except with TAS Spidey there but as of this series they are presenting Morlun, Ezekiel, and Kaine as just science stuff run by an evil corporate vampire with cloning tech.
Not all that different from Norman and Morbius. Maybe kids in the 90's would call him a rip-off of both if they did it this way but if JMD slowly starts making Morlun in this, more of JMS's version and with some new elements as well, I am interested. Morlun will start mentioning totem stuff more like with Vermin in this issue and Dormammu magic has already been presented in this universe.
Totems will be just a natural extension of this story TAS has been creating. Ending the series with Peter confronting Morlun who is an amalgam of these villains and one that has ties to his origin could be a good send-off.
>>150190325
Semper made a script with Gwen?

>>150191603
JMD isn't taking up much of the budget, he's an over-the-hill writer who hasn't worked on an ongoing in years. Critically acclaimed, but his name never drove sales. Khazem just doesn't have much budget overall.

>>150191696
That much is obvious. But I was trying to think from a corporate business decision-making perspective. It's a wonder none of these more modern comic book creatives haven't villified these companies. But I guess people don't care about comics and they don't have enough power like Todd did to start their own company and make their own living without Marvel/DC.

>>150191744
I haven't read his non-comics stuff but can you say that for sure? We can debate forever but we don't know if he would write better if they actually paid him well and we don't know if he is being paid well. Probably not.

>Morlun
I preferred the John Semper script treatment where Spider-Man is stuck in Victorian London fighting Jack the Ripper Carnage.

>>150179468
If they don’t care why should I

>>150192025
I trust JMD to at least make Morlun decent in this.

>>150179953
I'm fine with Morlun so long as it's the original intent; a vampire with a specific taste for super people who dress up like animals. Keep it like that and he's fine but the moment the Spiderverse shit gets pulled in the character goes to shit

>>150192025
ngl, i thought that was really lame, and even less tied to tas's actual tone.
>>150179638
You know JMD likes it right? And that he wrote last hunt?

>>150179523
Should have been detective Terri Lee. And I wish Peter were wearing his more recent outfit from season 2 onward. Could we not get Alex Saviuk to pencil this or something?

I loved how the early issues of the original tie-in comic looked

>>150191726
It doesn't mention Gwen a lot, but it's there. He released the script back around 2016/2017, and it had a section where Peter went back in time to work with Sherlock Holmes to catch Jack the Ripper, who was secretly Carnage.

It ended with Madame Web showing Peter a bunch of the different variants of Spider-Men through the Multiverse to show how important being Spider-Man is, making particular note of Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales.

Putting aside the fact that such an ending is an inferior retread of the final season, it just shows that he pulled the 'script' out of his ass (what's available seems more like a plot outline than a script) to fluff up the rewards of an unrelated Kickstarter he was running (long story). It obviously wasn't what he'd originally planned, and that's if he even had a plan at the time.

>>150179462
Along with what the other anon said about relief around something not resulting in reluctance to accept good things, I also feel like the more spirited Peter of TAS wouldn't do this whole woe-is-me melodrama comics like to jack off to but instead just plan to have one of those private wedding ceremonies in Vegas or something. In his head he'd joke that if she turns out to be another fake out he still had a good time and no one will know or care but him. Cartoonish as it was the most endearing thing about him was how he bounced back to his good natured self within an episode or so despite what happened.

>>150179898
Semper would be proud.

>>150179897
I think he briefly might have lived with Harry for an episode. I think it was when Baron Mordo and Carnage attacked their college campus. If he did, he moved back in with Aunt May right away, though

>>150179863
>>150179902
>>150179920
Oh, pish-posh. Aunt Anna and Aunt May would've been Silent Generation women who lived through the Great Depression. They literally got married and then moved in with their parents while they were popping out kids and stayed there either until they could afforrd their own place or until their parents passed away and they just inherited the house. Previous to them, every generation that had come before them that they had heard of as besides in ancient history just lived in multi-generational households. While it was the norm at the time, it's not out of place for them to expect Peter and MJ to just live there and inherit one or both of their houses, especially since they live in FOREST HILLS. I'm sure they were more affordable then (I actually tried looking for a good while and couldn't find anything that went back farther than 2005) but it would have still been well above the national average.

>>150180374
If they're that nervous about it they should have just adapted the EXISTING SCRIPTS for the final season of the show. Y'know, the only thing that would make sense and be an actual continuation? Then, if sales were good (and they would've been) they could keep going.

Honestly, I can't see this as anything other than a cult tactic i.e. act like they're giving you what you want but make you accept ONE ridiculous, unreasonable thing that seems innocuous. If you to go along with that, then you're statistically more likely to accept another unreasonable thing in the future, and they just keep escalating what that it is until you're groomed to eat crap with a smile, not getting any of the things you want.

There isn't any reason to do this - they own the right to Semper's scripts. That's why he had to do his whole League of the Rocket Men thing to get them out there (because having the OG cast do a dramatic reading of the scripts and then giving that away as a bonus gift to donators wasn't technically selling Marvel's intellectual property.) So they could've just adapted it 1:1 with no issues. With the way the episodes were structured each one would lend itself to a single issue that's a self contained story with overarching continuity, except for multi-parters, which more often than not were still rather self contained between episodes. Even without the art that would have been exactly what everyone wanted and would have sold like hotcakes, but there also isn't any excuse not to match the art. It's not overly stylized or difficult, it was streamlined for animation.

The only possible excuse is this is either a dishonest attempt at selling an different story masquerading as Spider-Man '94, or it's a cult tactic designed to get us to stop complaining and just accept whatever they throw at us since we complain so much and so loudly. If they can get you to swallow this, once it's over it won't be as hard to pivot you back to ASM and expect you to do the same.

He may be a "better writer" (debateable) but he's not going to be a better Spider-Man: The Animated Series writer because Semper is what made that series what it was. That's like trying to get Grant Morrison to make a Batman: The Animated Series continuation.

>>150180769
She was trapped in another dimension with Dormmamu, Baron Mordo, Venom, and Carnage if I remember correctly and Madam Web opened a portal for him to go after her. That was the big cliffhanger. Semper actually wrote out the entire season and knew exactly how he saved her and brought her back, so there's no reason for this.

I wish, I wish someone had a link to the audio drama of the final season.

>Madame Web would have taken Spider-Man to 19th century London where he would have found Mary Jane who had amnesia. While in 19th century London, Spider-Man would have fought Carnage who was revealed to be Jack the Ripper.
>Mysterio would have been revealed to be alive and in possession of the Time Dilation Accelerator. Mysterio would have used the Time Dilation Accelerator to rob banks. However, one of the portals would have accidentally taken Mysterio to the another dimension where he would have met Dormammu. Mysterio would have then become Dormammu’s new servant and would try to bring him into our world. Spider-Man would have then teamed up with Ghost Rider to defeat both Dormammu and Mysterio.

>Since James Cameron's Spider-Man film was canceled it is possible that Sandman would have appeared in season six.
>Betty Brandt would have been introduced as Joe "Robbie" Robertson's assistant and she would have had a crush on Peter Parker. Character designs were created but she was never introduced. Her name was also spelled Betty Brandt instead of Betty Brant.

According to John Semper Jr. on his Spider-Man: TAS Facebook page he would have done an updated version of Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends as a more serious version. The episode would have guest starred Iceman and Firestar, and he would have tried to get Frank Welker and Kathy Garver to reprise their roles from Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends. According to John Semper Jr. at the end of the episode, after the villain was beat, Spider-Man, Iceman, and Firestar would have all looked at one another and said, "Hey, maybe we should all hang out together and be FRIENDS. Wouldn't that be AMAZING?" Then, after a short silence, they would all shake their heads and go, "Nahhhhhhhhh" and take off on their own separate ways.

>>150179953
>JMS
After 20 years I still do not get why it is /co/ favorite run when some of the worst moments in the character's history took place in that same run. Sins Past, Civil War and officially ends with OMD (Not written by him). I am pretty sure I am missing one more stinker that took place during that time.

>>150193662
>making particular note of Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales.
BOO!

>>150195986
JMS excelled at characterization and small character moments in particular. His Peter, MJ and Aunt May felt like actual people and not boring cardboard cutouts they have been ever since OMD, so the book was at its most engaging when it focused on that. Peter growing up while retaining his charm is also something no modern writer can replicate (not even Hickman with USM, his Peter is kinda bland. There I said it).
While I find totem stuff to be questionable and his new villains to be hit or miss, most of the pitfalls are just examples of bad timing and luck. Or outright shitty editorial.

>>150179425
What the fuck was the point of this if you’re just gonna hand wave what people wanted to see?

>>150179433
Why is Peter Eric Forman now?

>>150196129
>Or outright shitty editorial.
This is definitely confirmed with Sins Past in that Quesada put the kibosh on having the kids be Peter's and Gwen's, and then suggested to have Gwen do the affair with Norman

Like a better editor would've just rejected the story in general. Keep in mind though that at this time Quesada was EIC and Alonso was editor on ASM

>>150180412
Well hey at least JMD didn't break out his Osborn toybox for this

Wtf is with peters face! Jesus Christ.

It's just desperate marriagefags who were thirsty in the desert.
>>150196248
When JMS first signed up he boasted about how if they ever edited a line of his work, he'd walk off the title. But after he wrapped up his Ezekiel storyline, that deal was done, at that point he was desperate to stay on to keep writing it.

>>150195986
I personally divide JMS era into JRjr period and post-JRjr. The only divisive moment during the JRjr period was introduction of totems, which I personally was ok with, I do not mind introducing mysticism into Spider-man and it was interesting angle, JMS had a story to tell and he told me and there are a lot more individual storylines that make it great no matter how you feel about totems. All example you posted are post-JRjr and majority of the issues could be traced back to shitty editorial decisions. Probably the worst thing I can blame JMS and only JMS for is that Sins Past was a horrible idea in its conception even before switch with Norman, that story just shouldn't have been made. But Civil War wasn't part of his plan, it was forced on him, and he tried to work around it, but you can get how your writing would suffer when you write for a character whose secret identity is paramount to him and Mark Millar decides to unmask for shock value.

Kinda weird. We already knew she was okay thanks to that cameo in X-Men. I kinda figured they'd show what happened.

Seems like kind of a big thing to just gloss over.

He was with Harry in an episode where Hobgoblin attacked them. Probably short-lived, all things considered.

Why is Anna such a bitch? Holy shit.

Couldnt you have hand waved that Spider Man Unlimited happened and he saved MJ there?

>>150198575
Holy shit an Unlimited fan!

>>150198575
Unlimited was never fully confirmed as the sequel but it references TAS

>>150198427
>Seems like kind of a big thing to just gloss over.
It already happened with Hydro-MJ, why bother again? It'd just be a repeat of the same thing, they were both the same person.

>>150179407 (OP)
I suppose we're just in the nostalgia cycle of the J. Michael Straczynski run right now, but even as someone who's formative comic book experience was with that part of Spider-man I find the retreading of it really tedious, especially for what is supposed to be a continuation of the 90's cartoon.

this was really bad and not like the show at all that had Peter act like a chad.
Just more of the amazing emasculation-man agenda.

They're probably saving that for when they make a cartoon for Spider-Man set in the X-Men 97 universe.

Secondaries will keep whining about what they heard is bad all the way through, huh? Annoying.

You're a non-canon story

>>150198575
But then you'd have to handwave how Spider-Man got back from the other Earth (and how MJ's saved is still handwaved away).

Mayday is here to save the day!

>Quote isn't "You're name is Mayday Parker and you're the daughter of the original Spider-Man!"
Missed opportunity

>>150201705
I recall some anon said it was a stylistic intention to have Spidey's colors used as Venom's highlights while very rarely black would be used for shadows on Spidey in night or dark scenes.
It seems likely since Symbiote Spider-Man uses just blue without red >>150182582.

>>150204143
Indeed. I think they just took the description for Mayday off of ComicVine and called it a day.

>>150204143
Why was it written that way anyway?

i like TAS

>>150184769
I still find it hilarious that they never bothered to hire a writer from law and order or something so they’d have SOMEONE with experience writing court room scenes

>>150206084
Does he have children?

I don’t know his wiki doesn’t say anything and his website bio is literally just the wiki bio.

>>150206057
JRJR is super expensive.

>>150195114
Marvel can raise a legal battle for the scripts, but they don't actually own the scripts since Semper didn't publish them. It's glorified fan-fiction at best.

If the comic is successful enough, I could see Marvel and Semper playing nice and bringing him along for an actual adaptation of Peter saving MJ. I hope someone co-writes with him, though. Semper's lost his writing talent.

>>150179433
>a story well tell eventually

Nigga it’s been 31 years, the kids who grew up on this are middle aged

It was advertised as a sequel, but they did it in a sneaky, non-committal way. I remember watching Good Morning America with my Grandma right before it premiered and they showed a teaser of it and said it was a sequel to Spider-Man: The Animated Series.
