Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)

[Turtletrekker]

^Sounds more like damage control.

[PsychoPere]

Yeah, doesn't seem to make much sense at the moment, does it?

We might as well consider three things confirmed at this point, then.

1. Peter Parker will still be alive.
2. Mary Jane Watson will still be alive.
3. Peter Parker will not be Spider-Man.

Edited to add: And now Fialkov flat-out says "absolutely" to whether Peter Parker will be seen in the Alpha miniseries, and confirms again that the mini takes place after ASM #700. There is a bit of wiggle-room in that "absolutely," however, because the CBR interviewer asked if Parker will be seen "in any fashion." That leaves the door open to the idea of flashbacks that Slott threw out in his interview, but still doesn't seem to entirely click with how Fialkov previously described Parker's involvement in the mini.

while i'm curious as to who the new Spider-Man will be it doesn't really matter. once Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters things will just return to normal.

[Admiral_Young]

^ That's still two years of Spider-Man not being Peter Parker, and we know how that went last time Marvel attempted to do this. This time is a little bit different. Next month's issue is going to be extremely interesting indeed.

I don't know if anyone is reading Daredevil: End of Days, but it is really quite good. It feels like Spider-Man: Reign or Old Man Logan. It's very gritty and cold, but Bendis and Mack's writing is really good and so is the art work.


Deadpool #1 was awesome. This will be the first Deadpool ongoing series that I'll be following on a regular basis.


Iron Man #1 was also awesome...except for some parts of Greg Land's artwork, particularly his depiction of Tony himself. Kieron Gillen is perfect for this book. I honestly didn't think much of it when I was reading his interviews and plans for the book, but this is off to a great start. I haven't read any of Matt Fraction's run for a good long time as I've mentioned before...but is Pepper still Rescue?

i thought Land did petty good for this issue. but Rescue...no. Pepper destroyed that suit after it tried to kill her.

[Mr Light]

Iron Man #1 didn't impress me at all and I'll stop reading... Fraction (mostly) had a good run and I'm looking to drop titles anyway.

Which only allows for a new and improved Rescue suit at some point. All that's needed is a story.

[OdoWanKenobi]

I thought Iron Man #1 was awful. The plot was dull, the artwork was stiff an ugly, and I wont't be picking up another.

[Admiral_Young]

Chris Bachalo confirms the relaunch of Uncanny X-Men (I told you guys it wasn't going anywhere ) with Brian Bendis. It will debut in Feb 2013.

[PsychoPere]

Bleeding Cool says that the Superior Spider-Man is not Miguel O'Hara.

[Captain Craig]

And Alpha's been ruled out, correct?

Start the Ben Reilly rumors....again?

[Admiral_Young]

Alpha's ruled out thanks to the mini-series announcement. I detect a lot of theatrics and trolling going on regarding both the events of 700 and Superior Spider-Man #1 myself. For once I don't trust what Rich says. He could very well be right...he doesn't seem to care about alienating people in the business or any of that stuff.

I don't think the Ben Reiley rumours have gone away. They've just been replaced by the Miguel rumours which are more popular. I'd be happy either way. I'm still trying to figure out the "it's someone we've seen part".
