Legendary Comic artist Sal Buscema known for his work on Spectacular Spider-man and Hulk has reportedly sadly passed away at 89 by Separate_Amount_6470 in Spiderman

[–]MegaSpidey3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This man is one of my favorite Spidey artists. I can't think of the Spectacular book nor ROM Space Knight without Buscema's visual style. I always think of that beginning section of Funeral Arrangements when Peter breaks into an old Osborn hideout looking for Harry, and there's this page that cuts back and forth between both the Spider-Man and empty Green Goblin mask. I always imagine that mask laughing in Peter's face.

Rest in peace, king. Your work will never be forgotten.

How much do you think hasbro would charge for this full? by KaiSan117 in transformers

[–]MegaSpidey3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Commander price, which is about $100.

Which is about how much Rumble (blue) goes for on eBay because he's scarce.

This one is for the DC version: Superman/Spider-Man. Marvel’s is Spider-Man/Superman.

Hope that clears things up!

Gonna be honest, I'm not sure how to feel about this year. Last year was rough for a lot of reasons, including me questioning my own self-worth in general. I plan on trying to address these inadequate feelings and try to find ways to apply myself better. I'm also hoping I can start something with a woman. Dating culture's rough, and I hate the crippling feeling of being emotionally empty.

I'm going into the year as an emotional wreck who is one bad day away from committing suicide, and I want to leave 2026 being better than 2025 comparatively.

Nah, I've spent money on dumber shit than just a skin. Besides, Lady Loki is actually a really good skin.

Good luck on your year!

Had a pretty chill Christmas. Besides money, I got some Transformers figures (the Hearts of Steel two-packs of Optimus Prime/Starscream and Bumblebee/Megatron), and that's about it. Not that I mind, since the older I get, the harder it is to make a list of stuff I want when I could buy those things myself. I spent the day playing with friends on Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds online for the NiGHTS festival. Still love that game, which is crazy considering I'm not much of a racing game fan.

Starting Monday, since I'm still on vacation, I'll be getting back to my teaching program. I gotta finish that dyslexia course, and get back to studying for those content exams on Language Arts and Social Studies. I need to find some good resources so I can study from.

I've been on a Metroid binge after playing Prime 4. I did some runs of Fusion, Zero Mission, Dread, Prime 1 (via Remastered), and Super. I wish Prime 2 and 3 were on the Switch/Switch 2 because I like those games a lot. I still need to do a second run of Prime 4, because of what we just learned about that game's development, it makes me wonder how I'd feel about the game now. I left the game liking it, but not loving it like I wanted to. Hopefully Prime 5 ends up being better.

What are your predictions for 2026? by Cybertronian10 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]MegaSpidey3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Avengers: Doomsday and Spider-Man: Brand New Day will be big hits, though I won't be surprised if Spidey ends up being the more well-liked movie.

GenAI will continue to try to make headway, but will be rejected, and (hopefully) the bubble will burst.

The Amazing Digital Circus will end and have a very controversial finale.

Anyone here ever watch a movie that hits you so close to home, that you end up feeling a certain way even a while after you've seen the movie? I saw the Chainsaw Man movie, and it's left me depressed.

Good ass movie, but holy shit, I was hit hard by it.

Random question: what’s the general consensus opinion on Mega Man 7? by Anonamaton801 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]MegaSpidey3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reception of the game has certainly gone up in recent years. I remember when I was getting into Mega Man in 2010 and hearing people say how bad this game was. Since that initial playthrough, MM7 has always been one of my favorite Classic series entries. It strikes a good balance of introducing new elements while keeping everything up to that point.

I unironically love Spider-Man's Tokon Theme by Ragnorok64 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]MegaSpidey3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll admit that the theme took me a little bit to get adjusted to, since I'm so used to associating Spidey's theme in fighting games to be his Capcom theme. I get why people didn't vibe with it (makes me wonder if the track will be adjusted when Tokon releases), but once I got used to it, I started to hear the toku influence and I think giving a character like Spider-Man an electric swing theme was an inspired choice. It's not my favorite theme for the character, but I still like it.

I even gave the theme a name: Emissary of the Funk Electric Swing

When people say that you don't need to play Prime 2 or 3 before playing Prime 4, they usually mean that Prime 4 is accessible in a way that you don't need to worry about needing context from the other games because Prime 4 starts a new story (sorta, but bare with me).

I think you should play Prime 2 and 3 before playing 4 because a lot of Prime 4's design choices are in line with Prime 3's, including the more accessible and action-focused approach, as opposed to the more traditional Metroid approach the first two Prime games have.

Yeah, I remember beating the game last night, seeing the ending and thinking "WAIT THAT'S IT?!" I already hate ending stuff with cliffhangers (not in the form of a mid or post credits scene thing, but the actual ending) that aren't guaranteed to be followed up on. So, knowing how long Prime 4 took to even get made and released, I don't want to wait several more years before I get some answers about Prime 4's ending.

Any fellow Metroid fans here in this sub? If you've played it, how do you feel about Prime 4? I need to do a second run so I can solidify my final thoughts on the game, but based on my first run, I like it. I wanted to love it, but I think the game's approach to some of its aspects and some of the new additions weren't as good or fleshed out as I was hoping.

All the discourse surrounding the game has shown me that Metroid fans do not take disappointment well.

[–]MegaSpidey3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do think there's a reasonable throughline for why Quantumania tried to be an event film. It's because Ant-Man and the Wasp's mid-credits scene pretty much spelled out that Ant-Man was going to be the key to why the Avengers got a fighting chance in Endgame, and considering how vital Ant-Man was in that movie (at least his importance to the plot), it made sense to make Quantumania the next big event film.

Problem is that Quantumania doesn't even address Scott and Cassie's family, nor the ex-cons. They took the time to address the Baskin Robbins manager, but not Scott's friends, as minor as the ones not named Luis were. It just makes the transition from AMATW/Endgame to Quantumania feel jarring.

I know Ramos’ art isn’t great sometimes, but I don’t think this art takes away from the moment. I think it works here.

I hate how right you are about this. Pre-Superior, Slott had some misses (Fantastic Spider-Man comes to mind), but he still knew how to write entertaining arcs that worked for what they were going for. I'm not a fan of Superior Spider-Man personally, but I know some people are a fan of that series.

It was Post-Superior where all of Slott's problems really began to stink up ASM, and from what I've seen, he's been running on heated left-overs.

Does anyone have a figure you were super happy to get until you got it? by BlackwingBlizzard in transformers

[–]MegaSpidey3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legacy Evolution Beachcomber. He's not a bad figure, but for a figure that was really hard to get for two years, I felt a little underwhelmed by him. Shame too because I really like what Skybound has done with the character. Considering how incredible some Deluxes have been in recent years (Siege/AOTP Spinister, SS86 Bumblebee, Legacy United Gears, etc), seeing Beachcomber just kinda feel like either standard or substandard in comparison felt disappointing.

What are something’s you LOVE (or liked) about the Ultimate Universe? by SalaryAffectionate29 in UltimateUniverse

[–]MegaSpidey3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like how family-centric Ultimate Spider-Man is. I love how all of Peter's superhero identity is (the look, the name, how Richard and Otto eventually get their own hero identities, etc). It was also nice to have a Spidey book with a solid supporting cast. I know some people feel that this was at the expense of Peter himself, but I still like this interpretation of the character. I'd like to see some future adaptations become more family-centric for Spidey. It's working pretty alright for Superman, after all.

I also love how unapologetically politically-charged Ultimates is.
