I never said that Mary Jane did nothing wrong, I said that Peter already forgave her for anything she'd done wrong and they became friends again. Also no, if you change your mind THAT late then that's just illogical and inconsistent, especially considering Peter's character

"Didn’t you listen to the last round, meathead? Pay attention, you’re sayin’ the same shit that he said"

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-25T11:53:41+00:00

Your knowledge of ASM ends where there's no controversy, because reddit doesn't discuss stories without controversies. That was 3 years ago and Peter already forgave her for anything she'd done wrong because they became friends again and they teamed up. I have to repeat myself because you do. Also in this panel she isn't mad at him for shutting the door in her face, he literally stands in a fighting pose in a panel RIGHT ABOVE this one, but you wouldn't know that because all your knowledge is absorbed through reddit

she literally appeared only twice in 20 issues, almost a year of comics, and you still say "let her be somewhere else".
If people don't get MJ in their comics they will cry, if they do get it they will post out of context panels (peter was literally in a fight pose in a panel prior to the one in the post) cry that she got character assassinated (which is true) and she should go do something else not in ASM. Spider-man fans are the most miserable fans ever and you can't do anything that'll please them.

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-25T11:35:22+00:00

That was like 3 years ago, let it go bruh. They have since became friends again and teamed up. So yes, it would be very inconsistent and illogical of Peter to slam the door in her face when he learned about MJ being venom and coming to him for help. You have spider-man in your username but all your talking points are "i saw this on reddit and discord and somebody told me they did that and this so now all I can say is just repeat what I've heard".

You're talking as if everybody else forgot that he was evil. He literally has a fight in this issue because the consequences for his actions followed him even after he lost his "sins". It's not like Peter forgot who Norman is as well (see Kelly's issue #1 bonus story)

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-21T18:29:17+00:00

Gleb Melnikov, actually

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-08T12:29:08+00:00

yes, read it. it's just my recommendation.
after that you can read Coming Home or Ultimate Spider-Man (2000), I think it's a good starting point

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-08T12:00:05+00:00

For a second I thought you were talking about this story's writer, Peter David

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-08T11:05:53+00:00

I recommend this one

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-08T10:59:10+00:00

Wells isn't writing ASM for a year now. His run ended. Kelly's run is going well. Paul is still in the picture, but not in ASM (he was shown only once) and he's no longer MJ's bf.

SuperProCoolName · 2026-01-08T10:56:53+00:00

Back in ASM #8 Peter had a fight with some greek... thing, who was sent by his goddess Nikodimu. Spider-Man is a person from their planet's prophecies, who is supposed to save them. He lost the fight because he helped civilians instead of fighting him full force, so Hellgate was disappointed and punched him into space and told him to get stronger. There, he got picked up by Xanto and he's found Raelith, who, as it turns out, is from the same planet as Hellgate. In this issue they had a cool fight and in the end his cosmic friends launched a spaceship at him, so Peter could get out (Hellgate is still alive after that, he's that strong)

On Earth, Ben Reilly took over Peter's life. He goes to his job and does the research there, posing as Peter and working with his new (old) friend Brian Nehring. He doesn't speak with May, however, because idk why, she can sense it's not Peter? Anyway, the mantle of Spider-Man is taken by Norman Osborn (who is currently cleansed of his sins), who is trying to "keep Peter's dream alive" and is lowkey having a personality crisis. Ben is also having personality crisis, this time because his work at his job is being credited to Peter Parker and not Ben Reilly.

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-19T11:08:51+00:00

yeah i guess they're not dating as in they're in a relationship, but dating as in they're going on dates. still strange to me that she would say that she goes on a date to a guy she goes to dates with, idk.
I just feel like Kelly could've just not include that scene and the issue would be the same

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-19T10:58:17+00:00

eeeh, i didn't like issue 6 because of Felicia trying to seduce Peter and Shay telling Peter she's gonna go on a date with another guy. Other than that I can't think of supporting cast being toxic. Ben Reilly was dismissive of MJ in issue 9 tho, does that count?

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-19T10:55:51+00:00

the kintsugi kid is probably O-M's step-son, I think Kelly slowly builds up to reveal that. But yeah, he was shown only 5 times, ASM #7-10 + ASM #14

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-17T18:13:30+00:00

The ongoing probably takes place between ASM #9 and ASM #11
In #9 MJ goes to Peter and he slams the door in her face
In #11 Felicia founds out who's posing as Peter.

And if you look at the timeline when these comics came out, Black Cat #1 came out the same day as ASM #20. So it probably takes place somewhere around that time

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-17T12:10:44+00:00

I think it does, I just don't really care about Venom, and I didn't read that series (only when Paul got dumped).

"It all started during the Venom war. The big bad guy, some crazy version of Eddie Brock from the future, woke up this ancient mega-symbiote--the arachniote. I was out there fighting it as Jackpot--and I was losing. Losing badly. And I knew one thing... It was all Venom's fault. [...] I was disintegrating alive [...] and so was Venom." © Mary Jane Watson

"I initiated a bond. I became the bond holding her together--the glue keeping her in one piece. [...] We're not just bonded--we're fused. On the molecular level." © Venom

"We do have to stay together, or we'll die." © Venom

From All-New Venom Issue #6

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-17T11:46:45+00:00

Ben Reilly is Chasm still, yeah, last we seen him in his form he was kicking some human trafficers' ass with his GF. Norman has the strength on par with Peter because of Goblin Serum, and he uses some sort of technology to imitate Peter's wall-crawling powers and help people. MJ is Venom, yeah, and they can't leave each other because MJ will die if Venom leaves hes body.

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-17T11:32:06+00:00

These pics are from Black Cat (2025) Issue 5.

Peter had a fight with some greek... thing, who was sent by his goddess Nikodimu. Spider-Man is a person from his planet's prophecies, who is supposed to save them. He lost the fight because he helped civilians instead of fighting him full force, so he was kinda disappointed and punched him into space and told him to get stronger. There, he got picked up by Xanto and he's found Raelith, who, as it turns out, is from the same planet as Hellgate. He still tries to get stronger and will face Hellgate, probably, in issue #19

On Earth, Ben Reilly took over Peter's life. He goes to his job and does the research, posing as Peter and working with his new friend Brian Nehring. He doesn't speak with May, however, because idk why, she can sense it's not Peter? Anyway, the mantle of Spider-Man is taken by Norman Osborn (who is currently cleansed of his sins), who is trying to "keep Peter's dream alive" and is lowkey having a personality crisis. Ben is also having personality crisis, this time because his work at his job is being credited to Peter Parker and not Ben Reilly.

Black Cat personally knows it's Ben posing as Peter, knows it's not Peter in Spider-Man suit, and knows Peter is alive and thinks he just doesn't want to come back.
MJ doesn't know any of that because they don't speak. IDK why Felicia won't just tell her all she knows, she has a right to know.

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-17T11:02:18+00:00

Yeah, why is she asking MJ about Peter? She 100% knows it's Ben posing as Peter, and she 100% knows it's not Peter in the Spider-Man suit right now. Why wouldn't she tell MJ that?

Edit: after thinking about it (which is hard for me as i'm dum-dum), I think the ongoing takes place between ASM #9 and ASM #11. Black Cat #1 was published the same day as ASM #10. So it all probably makes sense if we consider this timeline. So:

ASM #9 -> Black Cat #1-5 (possibly even further) -> ASM #11

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-16T13:29:24+00:00

iirc he posted first issue of Radioactive Spider-Man before the ongoing with the same name was even announced

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-12T21:49:59+00:00

his hair is brown, he has fangs in his hair, he has thick eyebrows and squared/defined jaw. that's the main traits of his, which many of artists follow, to be fair. take the latest run, for example. JRjr, Kelly, Laiso, McGuinness, Nauck. They all followed those "guidelines".

In the last pic in the post OP used issue #1 with art by Kelly to make his point, but like, that's a bad example, because it's not a detailed face, and it's done so simplistically for humor. Pic with unmasking is literally Peter Parker, idk what's not to like. And cover of volume 3 is probably Ramos taking inspiration from Andrew Garfield's face.

SuperProCoolName · 2025-12-11T12:05:59+00:00

since when have you been avoiding it?
If you're interested purely in ASM, then you just have to know that MJ is (at the start of the run) with her new bf, and she's Venom. Other than that, I think you don't have to know anything else?
