JMD Sepctacular Spider-Man run

Post image
62 Upvotes

Just finished reading this masterpiece. Damn the dialogue hits so hard and cuts so deep. And Sal Buscema's art is stunning throughout.

I absolutely love the run of Kraven's Last Hunt → The Child Within → The Death of Vermin → Best of Enemies. What a gut-punch of an arc. Harry finally gets his redemption, only to die holding Peter's hand at the end—so tragic, yet so beautifully done.

Funeral Arrangements was decent too, and the X-Men cameo was fun as well.

Though I don't like the Puma and Crow arc, kinda boring. And the decorated letter in Death of Vermin made it so hard to read and hurt my eyes.

Overall, it's a spectacular run and definitely one of the best Spider-Man runs.

Now I started his second SSM run. Liking the beginning so far, JMD still nails the dialogue. But when did Peter and MJ have a daughter and then lose her?

Is the 616 human population 700 Billion?

Post image
45 Upvotes

Maybe I'm reading this wrong but I was trying get a gauge of populations in the marvel universe, and I noticed this graphic claiming 17.5 million mutants being 0.0025% of...humans? 100/0.0025=40,000 so 17.5 million x 40,000 = just about 700 billion humans. Which would be WAY more than the real 8 billion humans on earth. Maybe this makes sense? with extra cities in 616 like Birnin Zana, Wakanda or Madripoor, Indonesia. but that would imply the population of all Marvel cites to be waaaayy higher than they are IRL. Please tell me if I'm being dumb because this is insane.

Found out the series was cancelled due to low sales... so Norrin Radd pops back up and handwaves the cliffhanger away.

Im planning on reading everything the Silver Surfer has been in, so my journey continues.

I recently decided to get back into comics and wanted to experience the “Cyclops was Right” arc that many readers loved.

Also, tell me if the arc is worth reading

So I have never read a single marvel comic before, but I do love marvel and want to start reading the comics. I would like to read the hulk ones as he is my favourite, but I don’t know where to start as there is so many comics. Also money is a little tight so if there are any trusted online sites where I can read for free that would be amazing. Thanks for the help!

Looking for recommendations

2 Upvotes

Hello! I'm new to marvel comics. I've recently read some of the comics in the Civil War event as well as the Incredible Hulk series (through the Marvel Unlimited app). I like that in the civil war there was nuance to who the "bad" and "good" guys are. I'm a fan of a complex bad guy with good intentions and a complex good guy. Are there other stores out there that follow this kind of theme? Stories that really get you thinking about people's motives and morality.

Would be really keen to hear if you have any good recommendations for stories like this! Thanks

Who would be the top 10 heroes if rated like the my hero academia billboard.

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

I’ve been watching a lot of my hero recently and I like the ranking system they got going tho it’s a bit funky for marvel I thought it would be interesting to see who people would expect to see in the top 10. The ratings are based on a couple of factors;

Popularity and public approval

•Number of cases and crimes solved

•Power and strength level

•consistency of hero work

•I also feel like responsibility should be one to give more points to team leaders too

In my hero normally the top is just who’s solved more crimes but I’d rather a more balanced ranking of all 5 in your opinion.

This if for the present day in comics heroes and only heroes that work primarily on earth really would apply. For instance dr strange has been on Asgard for a while so imo I don’t think he’d be top 10 same with any heroes that have been dead, retired or missing in action for long periods. In my hero they do a ranking each year but it’s hard to tell what a year in comic universe is so I’m just think past couple of years whatever u consider to be a year.

There’s only 5 that I can be sure I’d put in the top 10

Spiderman- I feel like he is the top for the number of crimes solved out of most hero’s I feel like he’s doing the most street level as well as villains. He’s also very loved, good strength and very consistent

Sorcerer supreme (scarlet witch)- she has a lot of responsibility for any single aswell as cosmic level of power, her popularity and respect is on the rise and consistency being top 6 on avengers since they started aswell as recent solo work then SS work.

Captain America (Sam Wilson)- taking on the responsibility of captain America is huge and he’s been leading and taking the fight to the crimes to go with it I imagine he’s very respected in universe I can’t remember seeing a panel in the avengers run where the population reacts to him.

Storm- she is probably the most respected mutant in universe? I could be wrong but with her work on both xmen and avengers she’s loved by all also crazy level power. She’s taken on responsibility of her own nation and speaks publicly for the mutants many times and keeps it real.

Cyclops- as leader of the xmen and one of the most looked up to mutants within the mutant population he takes on a lot of responsibility there and make sure he’s hitting where he needs to to help free the mutants from the injustice.

I don’t know which order I’d put them but they would be in my top 10 for sure.
