Spider-Man: Ve Haf Vays of Making You Talk
Jun. 4th, 2012 04:15 pm So this page from an earlier issue of Amazing Spider-Man (#685 to be exact) is causing some controversy as seen here in which Spider-Man goes along with some...erm..."enhanced interrogation techniques". I figure I'd post the page in question and let you decide.

DO NOT DEVIATE! -- Fairy Quest #1
Apr. 24th, 2012 09:00 pmPaul Jenkins and Humberto Ramos are self-publishing an independent comic series called Fairy Quest using fan-funding methods. Fairy Quest #1 was sold on a limited, convention-only basis a year ago, and the two creators want to reprint it so they can bring it to a wider audience and continue the series.

( We don't want to be in our story anymore, and you can't make us! )
Paul Jenkins calls this the series Humberto Ramos was born to draw, and I agree. Beneath the cut you'll find their officially released six-page preview (I also got permission from Paul just in case), and here you'll find links to their Kickstarter (fan-funding project page) and FQ homepage if you want to help!

Amazing Spiderman 684
Apr. 19th, 2012 08:46 amLast issue, Otto Octavious has created a protective shield that can magnify or protect Marvel 616 Earth from Global Warming. He intends to use it, as a last act before he dies. Enter Spiderman and the Avengers, who plan to stop him.
The Sinister Six take on the Avenger's, and both groups have prepped for one another.
Surprise! Otto has better prep-time than Peter Parker, and the Avenger's get their butts handed to them. With Spidey left at his mercy.
We now rejoin the Ends of the Earth.
( A grain of sand. )

Ever since "One More Day," it seems like Marvel has done everything they can to diminish Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson as a couple, and not just in ret-conning their previous marital status and giving Peter various other love interests to pursue. But then along comes the finale to "Spider-Island" to suddenly remind us why fans loved these two as a couple in the first place.

Most of the trends I am not happy with... BUT the last one shows a glimmer of promise.
I suspect this topic will rustle some feathers.
( Marvel taketh away, Marvel giveth. )
