The context is different, but this page needs to be surfaced again today. Don’t let them make a liar out of her. Don’t make excuses for their bad story, demand this be kept true and Dead Language be retconned.

@DebraMessing Yes. Because the bereaucrqcy is corrupt and the media cover for Obama. Like the time Obama used executive privilege to save Holder from Contempt when he refused to answer why they gave a bunch of guns to Mexican drug lords and the mainstream media said nothing about it.

@animehunt This is disgusting. It’s also not relatable. No one hangs out with the ex that left them and the man she left you for. It’s just this huge betrayal and open wound.

@ArturoDavVan They know. That’s the part that is the most maddening. Everyone knows. It keeps getting proven. Renew your vows. The Spencer run. Ultimate Spider-Man. Everyone knows the problem. They just refuse and insist there isn’t a problem, then put out three more variant covers.

@ceydvd Yeah it’s pretty easy to READALLCOMICS if you want to, but do try and support the good stuff like Ultimate Spider-Man by buying it. Just use it for old stuff and crappy stuff you’re addicted to.

Richard confirms he’s a teen making him probably 13 here. Meaning MJ had him at 22 which means she was pregnant at 21 (all their birthdays are in August here). Which means in 6160 Peter and MJ were probably married before Peter graduated College even. Wow.

@ceydvd Sandman should have stayed good. One of the worst changes they made. Mysterio should also be retired at this point. He strangely has too close a relationship to the Parkers for him to work as a standard villain. Even though he’s my favorite.

I guess I’m supposed to take joy in him getting beat down but like. the more pathetic he is the worse MJ appears. Like Peter meant so little to her she was willing to throw him away for….this.

@RedLReviews It’s a shame that there isn’t like, an editor on the comic book that could point this stuff out and work with the writer to produce a storyline in line with the personality and history of the characters involved. It feels like a basic requirement for the business but I guess not.

@NirvanaM1nd Because no one is actually sure if she has powers anymore. These powers are taken away by Doc Strange and she’s powerless for a long time. For a while she had tinker tech that did the same thing. But IIRC she lost that too. But then she had the powers again post OMD.

This is why I miss the irrelevance of Gang war. I didn’t have to worry about Wells doing something else stupid. I don’t think you could write her worse if you tried. Like it’s just two lines but somehow both are terrible. One, she calls him Parker? Did she mind swap with Flash?

@Pemulis_ The parallels are really quite something. A hack forced apart Peter and Mary Jane (dead then character assassinated now) as part of the at the time worst run in series history and Marvel responds by launching an alternative version of Spider-Man.

@RealTruggler I mean according to people who defend this part of the story and Nick Lowe obviously they would have no choice but to become lovers. Because that’s just what happens when people are stuck together and no one has any choice or say in the matter.

The above is not an anti-MJ sentiment. It’s an anti-writer sentiment because how the fuck do you disrespect her character this badly? Like if your MJ doesn’t love Peter Parker what are you even doing? No one would even consider writing one where the roles were reversed.

@franklinsherald I honestly just find this series confusing. Why take this new character and say it’s Power Girl? PG fans are mad you’re disrespecting the character, and PG isn’t this huge draw that’s going to grab a bunch of people on name recognition but don’t actually care about her.

@vinc14654 I can’t judge him for this. This has basically been his Status since 1978/2007. He loves MJ. MJ won’t be with him and now doesn’t love him. Nothing he can do about it. So he tries to find a replacement. He cannot succeed of course, which is why OMD and now DL are shit.

@ceydvd The problem with this speech has always been timing. Peter was gone for six months…. over six months prior to this issue. Not only have they interacted since then but it’s just kinda weird to blow him up eight months after the fact.

@Exalted_Speed @ElvingJack I’m sorry that can’t be right. I was told by Dan himself that Spider-Man must remain in his “prime” for new readers. If readers had some way of reading OLD material while the current story progressed his entire argument would be ridiculous nonsense.

@dallas_comics She has a clearly established personality and has a career path she carved out herself, and she’s making decisions that align with her established priorities. That’s personality and agency.If you just don’t like her that’s fine but it’s not that she has no “personality or agency”.

Two, the woman was in love with him her entire adult life, like clearly she thought he “had it”. And three, like, it’s just kicking him when he’s down for her to comment on his love life. He didn’t even screw up their relationship, she just left him for someone else!.

@spidermanias Hospital scene and The “if you were faster maybe I’d still love you” scene from 47 are way worse. These are just maddening because they give you hope that she is trapped and he can save her and fix everything but then they’re just completely nonsensical with Dead Language.
