In The Mind of Spider-Plush

When you hear about the death of your favorite characters, your stomach sinks a little bit, it's like hearing about the loss of a loved one, but much, much worse. This series continues, the first issue was less than stellar, but I did say there was room for improvement... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. That's all I've got, this is Gwenpool '25 #2 by Cavan Scott and Stefano Nesi. BUT LET'S ESTABLISH A NEW RULE: - I have to be brutally honest, the covers for this series all suck, so we're reviewing variants. This is the infinitely better variant cover . This one was drawn by Lesley Li, and it looks great, actually. It depicts Gwen (Stacy) in a cool pose about to murder you. Main cover shows a spoiler, so... "Rated T+", I don't see anyone over the age of 23 picking this up.  I just felt a sharp pain in my chest from picking this up, looks like this post is about to turn out to become the tragic death of the original Spider-Plush... ...

This is the uncensored version. For the censored cut without all the swearing and the mentions of sex, click here. There are only 4 certainties in life: Death, taxes, Burger King messing up my damn order and having a Spider-Man review site look at Sins Past. You've seen everyone's reviews, you've seen everyone making fun of it (including Marvel themselves) and you even lived long enough to see it get retconned (Thanks, Nick Spencer). The story has it that in 2004, J. Michael Straczynski wanted to write a story about Gwen Stacy and Peter Parker's secret children that eventually tried to kill Peter... Odd, but okay. This is where Marvel's then editor-in-chief Joe Quesada comes in... So, Joe tells JMS that making Spider-Man have children would make the character seem like an old hag, and that would turn off new readers... Joe, I love you as much as I love my own son, but that is total bullshit, and you know it. You may be wondering, what happened last time? Well, Ezeki...

Look at me, looking at 60's Spidey. Oh, and then 2000's Spidey. Why don't I look at something more modern? Something that was released... 2 years ago? Well, let's have a look at The Amazing Spider-Man (vol. 6) Once again. I mean, it's appropriate, we're on vol. 7, and scarily close to issue 1000. First of all, a little context for a little detail in the story: Spidey is wearing a suit that was made by Norman Osborn, it sort of resembles the suit from the All-New, All Different era. It has all sorts of fairly cool gadgets... But it doesn't sit right with me, why is Spider-Man wearing a suit that was made by his worst enemy? Odd. LAST ISH: The Amazing Spider-Man (vol. 6) #26 was... Less than amazing. Peter and like 700 other guys fought Rabin, and it cost the life of Ms. Marvel. I wasn't very thrilled reading it. Now, of course, that wasn't my last Spider-Man comic, as I managed to pick up issues 21 and 22 from Panini's Spanish translation, which c...

This is AVENGERS 500! The beginning of a big storyline called "Disassembled". It looks promising enough. I only know about this story because of 2 different things. 1 is that I opened a Linkara video a few days ago, he was reviewing this comic, and he was like "OMG THIS COMIC SUCKS AAAA". Which is how all of his videos go nowadays, c'mon, cheer up. 2nd is the Spectacular Spider-Man storyline called "Changes", because it was somehow tied to this event.  AVENGERS: DISASSEMBLED. By Brian Michael Bendis and David Finch. How bad could this be?  First off, this storyline had a lot of tie-ins across various titles. Here is the list: - Iron Man. He does... Uhm... No clue - Thor. He fights Ragnarok. - Captain America. No clue. But Falcon was there - Fantastic Four. They fight the FRIGTFUL four- - The Spectacular Spider-Man. We'll get to this later. Right now, it's time to look at part 1 of CHAOS.  The cover looks okay, the Avengers are all rushing into ...

One thing I didn't want to admit is that I am not a fan of how the recent Amazing Spider-Man comics have been going lately, it seems that the series is not in good hands and that nothing is going to get better... So, why exactly did I not want to admit this? Well, because I try to be optimistic when it comes to Marvel comics, I really have hope that Amazing Spider-Man is gonna be good again, I have hope that the comics about my favorite character will have good storytelling, so what the fuck is going on? It all started in 2006, with a little comic called Civil War, Spidey had his identity revealed and it led to a lot of chaos in his stories, Aunt May was dying again (this time because of a bullet wound), and no hospital will do anything because apparently Spidey is a criminal or something like that. This led to One More Day, where Peter just cannot let go of Aunt May and in order to save her life, he sells his marriage to Mephisto. This comic was shitty, not the worst, but it was a...

Originally posted on August 26, 2024 via Wix.  Some of you may remember my review of Gwenpool Strikes Back #1 from way back in June of 2023. I remember it because of that Atop The Fourth Wall joke at the beginning of the post, I could tell you what else I said about the comic but I am definitely not looking back at my old shit. but the most important aspect of the review was that i didn't like it. Some others may remember the 17th Birthday Special, in which I did a short review of issue #2. and I really fucking hated it. But I didn't go too much into details and pretty much just wrote about how much I hate that stupid-ass character Deadpool. Well, I'm here to tell you why this comic sucks by giving you a PAGE-FOR-PAGE, PANEL-BY-PANEL (ok maybe not panel-by-panel) ANALYSIS. While also reviewing issue 3, because a little birdie tells me that this issue is not as bad as the first 2 hell spawns.  Comic is written by Leah Williams, and the art was made by David Baldeon. THE COVE...
