In 30 years of reading Spider-Man comics I can say that I have never read a "memorable" Madame Web story. She never really felt like a "character". She was a vague plot device. Pure deus-ex-machina. When the writers messed up real bad and needed Parker to get a bunch of exposition, they threw Madame Web into the story to read the note from editorial. But by doing that, they also destroyed any sense of real stakes in the story. MAR1979 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the only thing I remember Madam Web from was the 2 part storyline in Amazing Spider-man (back in the 80s) where Spider-man fights the Juggernaut.

But by doing that, they also destroyed any sense of real stakes in the story. Funny enough, while not a huge spidey reader, Madame Web is very memorable to me but not in a good way. As a kid, I liked spider-man and could follow his stories as they were usually grounded. I enjoyed watching the animated show in the 90s. But Madame Web would show up at times and throw all that grounded feel out the window, there would always be some kind of crazy angle. I really hated her showing up. There's even a meme clip about spidey making a "savage" joke to a girl by showing a young girl his face only to then reveal that it's because she's terminally ill. But that clip cuts. And the reason it cuts is because right in the middle of that there is a madame web scene that comes out of freaken nowhere. Just to say, I was never a fan of madame web, because of how she clashed with what I wanted to watch as a kid. But that also means i never forgot her. Also, I don't get why people are so thirsty for Sydney Sweeney. I mean I can see that she has nice knockers when she wears certain clothes, but if that's all one cares about there's a whole bunch of videos and photos online of ladies which are as lovely or have even bigger knockers. jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like the thing that excited him the most was providing his business sponsor details. Wow. He can be iffy at times with his comic book reviews. But not this negative about a film.

MAR1979 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) To all who spent $500, $600, $700, $800, $900, $1000-$1500 or more on ASM 210, to quote The Joker HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Prepare to get big-time hosed! I predict a plummeting to under $500 for the newsstand and under $300 for direct sale before year end and then another 10-20% off of that next year. P.S. Ain't saying I told you so, after you were scoffed at, one of life's simple pleasures Edited February 13 by MAR1979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
