Incoming obsession over young Tony from the newest issue of Ultimate Spider-Man…

outside of the fact that MY CHILDREN ARE TOGETHER AGAIN, i really like the changes hickman's made to the mythos. more than the characterisation of pete and mj, it's jjj i love in this.

jonah and ben working together's a nice touch, and ties nicely into the idea that og jonah gave pete a job partly because of the impact of ben's death on pete.

the "PARKER! PARKEEEEEER! oh hi pete" panels were a nice bit of humour, not too OTT. the fact that - outside of his vendetta against spider-man - og jonah is good at his job and has historically been on the side of minorities and civil rights comes through in jjj's reaction to events, as well as the conversation he has with ben.

and speaking of ben, i feel like 616 ben is mythologised a touch at times, so it's interesting to see hickman's take on a living ben parker who's had a whole lifetime with both may and pete, and how that would have informed his personality and his relationship with pete (and by extension, pete himself). it'd be interesting to know what the impetus for peter growing out of being an obnoxious, arrogant little shit as a teen into a well-rounded human being was, given the lack of ben dying and the lack of spider bite as a teen.

my favorite theory rn is that hobie killed the cop captain that was a part of his "canon event".

THE COMICS GIVE SPOT ABS?

oh baby.....

98% of spots iterations are absolutely JACKED, probably because he made his debut in the 80s (1984 to be specific, the good year of Footloose!) and they kinda only knew how to draw one body type, lol. maybe, despite being a scientist, he used his free time to work out?

he also dies

again

...and again

...and again!

conclusion: get some body fat or you will not be able to survive the harsh marvel comics winter.

bonus: heres him making deadpool kick himself in the crotch. lmao.

ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN ISSUE #1

Writer: Jonathan Hickman | Artist: Marco Checchetto

[into-the-spider-verse]

Coming out of the woods to talk about Across the Spider Verse, and specifically a comparison of Insomniac Spider Man and Miles that’s been made. Spoilers ahead.

People have been comparing Insomniac SM(hence force pete) to miles on the basis of Pete’s big decision to not cure aunt May and save everyone else instead as the opposite of what miles is doing and I feel like that is a gross oversimplification of both of their scenarios. I do think Pete could end up siding with Miguel(in as much as the version of Pete in the movie is probably only tangentially canonical to game Pete) but I think that his reasons would be based on the assumption that Miguel knows what he’s talking about has actually researched it, which I think may be false

Anyway, Pete at the end of Insomniac’s game is faced with the decision to save aunt May and let everyone else in New York die, or hold onto the cure so it can be spread. He knows the exact ramifications of his actions, he knows the science and that without this dose of a cure there is no chance to save anyone else. He has no other options, either save May and let everyone else die, or save everyone except for May. Pete is also an adult and professional scientist who has a full understanding of his situation.

Miles is a child, very intelligent but still learning, who has been having turmoil with his parents throughout the movie. He wants to repair their relationship, but isn’t sure how to without revealing his identity and isn’t even sure that revealing his identity as spider-man would fix things. Facing this, he also is dealing with insecurity as a spider-man. Gwen hasn’t visited him, she’s keeping secrets from him, she’s hanging out with another spider-man who may be a romantic rival, and he was never invited to join the multiverse club. Facing that, he’s told by an iteration of Spider-man he’s never met before, who treats him callously and with no empathy while explaining the situation to him, and then expects him to obey him immediately. Miles is already on the outs, has very little reason to trust Miguel, and is not really given any choice in the matter. While the other spider-people largely accept that Miguel is right about canon events, the question is raised how sure he is and it does not appear that Miguel has looked for any alternatives or done any actual research, instead just operating based on the data from the world he collapsed. Even if this isn’t true, he doesn’t give Miles any reason to believe he’s worked exhaustively to look for alternatives. Miguel’s whole vibe is “man defeated by the world, doing what has to be done based on his pessimistic worldview, unwilling to try and be hopeful again”. So ultimately, Miles isn’t choosing to save his dad and damn his world, Miles is saying that he can’t standby and let someone he loves die when there is a chance he can save everyone.

Miles is fighting for the opportunity to save his dad and his world, banking on the ambiguity of the science behind the multiverse and his abilities as Spider-Man to find a way to hold his world together. There was no ambiguity in Pete’s situation. It was a true dead end, he knew all the stakes and knew what was possible, and made a choice within those confines.

I like to think usm!peter isn't in the super secret spider society club because he

dealt with the Spider-Verse one too many times and is kind of burnt out on it and just wants to deal with his universe and his problems for a little while.

never fucking listens to anyone other than Nick Fury and Aunt May, so fat chance he would take any of Miguel's orders seriously.

has a Miles that already lost his dad, so fat chance he would let that happen to another Miles if he could help prevent it. He would immediately be on Miles' side and help him escape just with his whacky daydreams alone. Say what you want about USM!Peter but he is THE determinator.

had his very first Spider-Verse stop in Nueva York. Miguel (voiced by Freddy Rodriguez btw) is thinking about quitting because he feels like he can't do anything right and that no matter how many times he saves the day, more and more havoc keeps threatening the city. Peter inspires Miguel to push forward and use his powers to keep Nueva York a place worth living and fighting for. As thanks, Miguel essentially turns a blind eye to whatever is happening in that 'verse, so long as canon events are not greatly disrupted (and he personally helps with whatever anomalies show up there).

is very annoying with his 4th wall-breaking and daydreaming escapades that take up the entire screen and Miguel already has to deal with 100+ wisecracking Peters that DON'T talk to the audience every 15 seconds, so he never invites him because he needs to get some fucking work done!!
