    Zeb Wells dropping a good issue of ASM feels like a good episode of the Flash in its later seasons. It’s great to see a glimpse of what it used to be, and could be again but it’s too little too late to make the season/run good.

      I honestly don't think it's his fault it's sleazy Marvel executives that want him to make those comics because they're used to Spiderman being a young college student that can't ever be happy and needs to be young even though it should be better for him to be married and have a good life like what the ultimate comics did recently

      @@alexzemaitis1207I will never understand this. They want a young spider man? Miles Morales is literally RIGHT THERE! I will never get why they refuse to let Peter grow up and be happy. Like did Spider verse and Ultimate Spider man not show them how much fans would kill for a mature and happy Peter with a wife and children?

    Personally it feels too little too late for zeb wells to save this awful run of amazing Spider-Man at least in my opinion. Also side note that letters page with Nick Lowe confirming he doesn’t give a damn about Peter Parker and Mary Jane relationship and just want to have Peter have no development whatsoever, which is just dumb and just proves my point Nick Lowe doesn’t give a damn about Peter Parker Spider-Man as a character as a whole at least in my opinion.

    The past couple issues had been good actually, but no author gets a 55 issue grace peroid. He was so bad that it got to the point where he created such a bad taste in my mouth that when he does well, I can't enjoy it as much. Its like seeing a jerk get a promotion at work. There's not enough time for his run to change how I feel about him honestly.

    I do sometimes wonder if an interview with Zeb Wells could be done to explain if anything was happening behind the scenes during his run. Do you think that it could work.
    Also you are partically right about the Spider Goblin Arc as it was supposed to be the end of his run, but it was extneded for six more issues and it was decided to use it to tie up the Tombstone lose end. As far as we know the 8 Deaths of Spider Man had nothing to do with it.

  • @jonathanl-j4i
    @jonathanl-j4i Месяц назад +16

    He totally didn’t intend for this to be the end of the run. It was going to end with the Goblin stuff. Which is why it’s so weird that this is filler. I feels like he was asked to stay on for another couple of months and he said fine Nick, but only if I get to write what I want to. lol.
    I do have to point out though that Jackpot does NOT have her own comic that Marvel are pushing. She had a four issue mini with Black Cat that sank abysmally because hardly anyone likes MJ as Jackpot and everyone was written poorly. She has recently shown up in Venom War, called Peter “Tiger” but also called Paul “Baby” so it’s swings and roundabouts. People even cheered at the end of the last one when she gets in big trouble, just like when the fake kids got erased - and when people are celebrating the fact two “cute” kids got eliminated you you’ve gone wrong in your story.
    There was no need to split up Peter and MJ this way in order to make her Jackpot, and the whole powers thing has been so poorly executed being “random but not random” and dreadfully OP, so it has really not found many fans. The fact that MJ seems to be so competent for no reason and with no training is just weird. But Lowe and co can’t seem to accept that their idea is garbage so we’re stuck with it.

    • @LewisFilmsProductions
      @LewisFilmsProductions  Месяц назад +5

      You’ve got a point there! Also on the jackpot stuff, I do get the impression they were trying to push her. She’d appear in the ASM books every few issues with massive emphasis on her powers rather than her as a character, along with the fact they tried to launch her own series which failed massively.

    • @jonathanl-j4i
      @jonathanl-j4i Месяц назад +4

      @@LewisFilmsProductions oh yeah they were (and still are) definitely trying to push her as Jackpot, it was more the point that she doesn’t have her own proper comic and I doubt she ever will. Even paired with a character as popular as Black Cat they couldn’t make the mini sell.
      I don’t know if the Jackpot idea came first or the desire to split up Peter and MJ came first. Chicken or egg. The dumb thing is they could have probably done both without riling up the fan base so badly, and then maybe people would have accepted it more readily. We needed as you say greater focus on MJ and her emotions and feelings, her growth and development, than just “pew pew I’ve got all the powers now and kicking butt right out of the gate!”

      @LewisFilmsProductions I will say I did love how the writers of the Venom War Spiderman side story just had fun with Venom tearing into the new dynamic MJ and Peter had. And even telling Peter he can tell that Peter still is deeply in love with MJ. And somewhat roasting Paul was a big bonus.
      Sadly MJs powers were just handled poorly and the fact that it has no real limits to the ability is just stupid, with no cool down period and Paul just getting rid of tinks and risks. Sure we did the most powerful power it can give her in the Black Cat Darkweb book but when it showed that she became a reality warping goddess (albeit a limited range) i checked out.
      That and it proved she doesn't have every power imaginable if that was the most powerful it could give. Just 1140 different powers in an average 20 character 3 roll slot. Which is still ridiculous and just means her power is whatever the writer needs it to be. That and she just knows how every power works with no prior training and can use them flawlessly, which also makes no sense. And as for her being able to handle goons and stuff like that in h2h makes no sense as the training she and Peter had with Cap when they were married was retconned I believe.
      It doesn't help that the writing/dialogue in the books she's supposed to be the main focus on or secondary character is terrible, leading to abysmal sales. I just hope that Wells and Venom War is this characters' swan song as I've not heard of her being planned to appear in anything else aside from this Venom War tie-in. Cause at this point you can tell they just don't know what to really do with the character

      This Jackpot nonsense was the biggest heap of garbage anyone could possibly have come up with. And then they made Paul her man in the chair just so we had to keep seeing him, they are so desperate for us to like the man who stole MJs heart it's almost funny.

    One good comic does not make one a good writer and his writing on the Venom books haven't been good either to the point he was the one to pen the infamous (thankfully now of days non canon thanks to Donny Cates) Dark Origin. Like sure editorial did play a part in drastically damaging the book (heck they have a reputation for hating MJ) but Zed did play a part in this as well.

It's just pathetic to compare this to the old Spider-Man stories out there who were better written than this garbage.
