So, apparently it was National Superhero Day...Uh...Here are original superheroes that I made:
Tumblr media
MIGHT make something with them one day.
Also, go read Ultimate Spider-Man #106-110. It's a great Spider-Man/Daredevil story with some decent Moon Knight on the side. Oh, and Shang-Chi, Iron Fist, and Doctor Strange were there for some reason. Just a heads up that Spidey dated and then broke up with Kitty Pryde in that so...You now.
Happy international superhero day! I'm going to bed...

Honestly, with how sad Peter's life can get, its amazing this ISN'T an image from a comic.
Tumblr media
Spider-Verse really showed the truth we all knew to be true.

To be fair, that Nostalgia Critic gag DOES accurately portray what it's like when studio executives make a decision.
And I'm not saying teen Peter Parker stories are a bad thing either. And it's not just Spectacular Spider-Man. The original Ultimate Spider-Man comics is quite possibly the saving grace of that overly dark and edgy universe. And (Despite what people on Twitter tell me), I think the MCU nails what a teen Peter Parker would be. We can get great stories and fun ones too. But there's a reason why people are praising new Ultimate Spider-Man for FINALLY giving him a wife and kids. We want to see our Spider-Boy blossom into a Spider-MAN.
You know, I saw a reviewer that made a good point. The concept of Peter being a Teenager in stuff like the cartoons and adaptions....is actually relatively new? Like, from the original Spider-Man cartoon to the one before Spectacular Spider, most Spider-Man cartoons had him as a young adult, either in college or just living on his own. Him being a teenager still in high school is a relatively modern concept. Even in the raimi movies, he's only in High school for one movie...and that wasn't all that important to the plot besides him getting the Spider bite on a field trip.
I think you can either blame the Ultimate comics, nostalgic Spider-Man fans, or guys in suits going "Well, the chart says..." for that one.
The Ultimate comics came out, starting all the way back at Peter being in High School and just...staying there. He was in high school, got bit by a spider, bip-bap-boop, got killed and lived happily ever after. The end. And seeing an adaptation of Spider-Man starting out as a teenager--And a really WELL-WRITTEN adaptation at that--made people go, "Wow. Spider-Man is awesome as a teenager." And THAT spiraled into people remembering that Spider-Man started out as the very first teenage superhero that wasn't a sidekick. He was a high schooler who dealt with high school problems. And...yeah, that's true. But in the main universe, Peter Parker was in high school for, like, twenty issues or more. And people going, "Well, some of Peter's best stories was of him in high school," are likely those who remembered the Ultimate comics, where Peter lived and died as a teenager. Some of Spider-Man's most iconic stories and grandest adventures began when he was already in college.
But it was too late. Misconception started and big guys in suits went "Well, the chart says..."
People like teenage Spider-Man? Well, then we'll give them teenage Spider-Man. Even better, due his age appealing to the youths, it'd be much easier to market him to kids and teens than if he was just an adult. So it was teen Spider-Man all the way...for way too long to the point where people got sick of it. Because they didn't want a Spider-BOY anymore, they wanted a Spider-MAN. It's why recent adaptations are trying to steer away from that. Spider-Verse, Spider-Man PS4, and, ironically enough, the NEW Ultimate Spider-Man comics have given fans an adult Spider-Man with adult problems and actually has him dating and impregnating Mary Jane. It goes to show that when you flood the market with the same exact thing for so long, they'll eventually get sick of it. We've already have great Teen Peter Parker stories. An ABUNDANCE, you could say. We don't need much more of it.

Okay, first of all, this is a fucking masterpiece and I love it. Second, you perfectly captured the fear and intensity during the exact moment you're portraying.
I don't want to say WHAT you're portraying because it's a spoiler and I want people to watch that episode--SERIOUSLY, WATCH THAT EPISODE--but you captured it well.

"Midnight" is one of my favourite episodes!!
A speedpaint video of this will be available at my Patreon on may 1st

I think I'm going to spend all of Tuesday watching Amphibia and The Owl House episodes at random. Like, but Owl House and Amphibia into a random episode generator, have no repeats, and just...have a randomized marathon.
Yeah...That'll be good for me.

Firestar...And considering that Liz Allen was once Peter Parker's girlfriend AND Firestar in one universe...
If I was a Spider-Man writer:
Miles: Why does The Human Torch call you "Baby Girl?"
Peter: How about we stop talking for a while.

Change a single letter and change the word game
I want to play a game with you all.
You have to make a new word by changing only one letter of the last word.
