Spider-Man Real-Time Aging Timeline

I’ve been asked to get on my crazy again with this, this time for Spider-Man. Well, here goes and boy, this is about to get WEIRD! A lot of this IS based on Spider-Man: Life Story, so if you are wondering about something, refer to that.

Because there’s a LOT of Spider-Man events out there, I couldn’t include them all without going totally nuts. If you have a question about them, ask! Though beware, “The writers made that up” is a possible explanation. 1946 - Peter Parker, Mary Jane Watson, Jessica Drew, Luke Cage, “Flash” Thompson, and Gwen Stacy born. 1947 - Peter’s Parents die under somewhat mysterious circumstances. His Aunt May and Uncle Ben Parker take him in.

1950 - Julia Carpenter born. 1962 - Peter Parker, 16 years old, invents a quick-drying temporary adhesive with properties similar to spider silk as an entry in a science fair (with hopes of catching someone’s eye to sell the invention to in order to aid his aunt and uncle). Unfortunately, one of the other entries was a might volatile and explodes. Peter is caught in the blast radius and injured. Worse, while on the ground an escaped Tarantula bites his hand in its panic. Peter recovers, but the incident was quite traumatic, and he associated everything that followed with that spider.

When he recovers, he finds himself stronger, faster, and tougher than he was before, and more ‘aware’ of his surroundings. Worse, he was ‘seeing’ things before they happened. He doesn’t know what to do with these abilities at first but is inspired by seeing the masked wrestler El Santo perform on TV. He hits on the idea of fighting for money with a masked identity. It goes rather well, but we know how this song and dance goes by now.

After his, he invents gloves and boots to better help him climb across surfaces, as well as web-shooters for ranged entrapment. He soon figured out web-swinging from there. And thus, Spider-Man was born! But what did cause his powers to awaken? It goes back a few hundred years. One of the greatest swordsmen of all time was a man named Zatoichi. Upon learning of this man, one of the greatest criminal masterminds of all time (Fu Manchu) attempted to re-create this man’s skills. This eventually led to the creation of the Nanjin, a sect of Warrior Monks who ritually blinded themselves to “See With the Heart”. Over time, The Devil Doctor did his best to be eugenic about the subject, but random mutation is going to random. Peter Parker his the jackpot with his genes. Upon suffering a horrendous injury, an epigenetic response kicked in and he became as they were--more in fact with an enhanced musculature and reaction time on top of it. How strong is he? Well, starting out, he was a very athletic human, far more so for his size and weight. After fighting and working out for a few years, he could give some species of vampire a go without much problem. Especially with his “spider-sense”.

And yes, Daredevil is a trained Nanjin. Obviously.

Also, this year, Jessica Drew is the only survivor of a car crash into a chemical truck that kills her family. With no one to watch her, she is kidnapped and experimented on by HYDRA. 1962-1966 - Many of Spider-Man’s classic rogues appear in this timeframe. Notable oddities about them based on what people assume are as follows: Vulture’s ‘flight harness’ was based on the old Doc Savage designed Rocket Pack, most famously employed by the Rocketeer (Cliff Seacord) back in the Late 30s/Early 40s; Otto Octavius is a Cthulhu Cultist; The Sandman is a person who absorbed a juvenile Founder/Changeling and gained some semblance of their shapeshifting abilities; The Lizard is likely tied to the experiments which created the “Alligator Man” of Bayou Landing (The Alligator People); Electro is one of several known “Electrical Mutants” -- people who were born with an electro-kinetic ability.

1964 - Norman Osborn becomes the Green Goblin.

1965 - Peter Parker meets Mary Jane Watson and Gwen Stacy.

1966 - Flash Thompson goes to Vietnam.

1969 - The death of George Stacy, Gwen Stacy’s Father.

1972 - Giant-Size Spider-Man #2 - Spider-Man and Shang-Chi team up against Shang’s Father, Fu Manchu.

Peter Parker marries Gwen Stacy. 1973 - Giant-Size Spide-Man #1 - Spider-Man tangles with (a) Dracula.

1974 - Giant-Size Spider-Man #3 - Spider-Man helps resolve a case started by Doc Savage in 1934.

Flash Thompson comes back from Vietnam with a wife, Sha-Shan Nguyen-Thompson, but without his legs.

Jessica Drew escapes Hydra’s indoctrination and tries to make headway as a hero on her own as “Spider-Woman”. It does not go well.

1975 - Marvel Team-Up #36-37 - Spider-Man meets Frankenstein’s Monster. Superman vs. the Amazing Spider-Man - Spider-Man is tricked into fighting the legendary Superman by the machinations of Otto Octavius and Lex Luthor. They eventually team up and stop the malcontents. 1976 - Jessica Drew decides to re-invent herself as the heroine “Jewel” since her powers really have very little to do with Spiders. 1977 - Professor Miles Warren’s plan of making Gwen Stacy his own via “cloning” is exposed by the ‘new’ Green Goblin, Harry Osborn. Unfortunately, tat technology is over a decade away, and his “Clone” is more “Human Meat Puppet” and rather horrifying. In the conflagration/confrontation, he and Gwen Stacy are killed. Harry Osborn disappears for a time... Mary Jane Watson-Osborn and Peter Parker comfort each other over their mutual losses.

Jessica Drew finds herself under the thrall of a mind-mage known as “The Purple Man.” The thrall is eventually broken, but though she manages to recover, it leaves scars.

1978 - Marvel Team-Up #79 - Thanks to a mystical malady, Spider-Man battles Kulan Gath, and things could have ended up badly for him, if not for the revelation that Mary-Jane Watson was a descendant of Red Sonja of Hyrkania. Touching an artifact allowed the She-Devil to manifest in the present and aid Spider-Man in taking down her ancient foe.

Spider-Man first encounters the blind seer Madame Web.

Birth of Samuel Thompson to Flash and Sha-Shan Thompson.

Jessica Drew takes up two new identities, Knightress (for about 5 minutes) and Jessica Jones to distance herself from what happened.

1980 - Marvel Treasury Edition #28 - Spider-Man manages to accidentally thwart the plans of Doctor Doom, to turn the monster known as Parasite into a massive energy storage device after it drained the life force from the Hulk, Superman, and Wonder Woman.

Secret War - Spider-Man is one of the many people invited to this decade’s Mortal Kombat tournament. Unfortunately for Shao Khan, so is Superman (Clark Kent), and he utterly wrecks the event, making the whole thing a wash, forcing Shao Khan to wait another decade to continue his win streak. The monstrous being known as “Venom” follows Spider-Man from Outworld. One of the people taken in by this is a survivor of “The Shop”, Julia Carpenter. Taking a cue from Spider-Man, she dubs herself Spider-Woman (II).

Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson marry.

Mattie Franklin born.

1981 - Marvel Team-Up #111-112 - Spider-Man has a time-traveling adventure featuring King Kull, battling against Valusian Serpent-Men. Marvel Team-Up Annual #5 - Spider-Man has more adventures with the Serpent-Men and their ancient enemies, Kull and Conan.

1982 - The monster “Venom” reveals himself. Its first host is Eddie Brock.

May “Mayday” Parker is born.

1983 - The Venom creature spawns, creating the horror known as Carnage. It goes on to spawn more Symbiotes. Jessica Jones has a child with Luke Cage (Daniel Cage) and later marries him. 1984 - Spider-Man and Batman: Disordered Minds - Spider-Man and Batman (III) team-up.

Kraven’s Last Hunt occurs.

Cindy Moon, the grandaughter of Flash Thompson, born.

1985 - Batman/Spider-Man - Batman and Spider-Man team up once again.

1988 - Anya Corazon born.

1990 - Julia Carpenter retires as Spider-Woman, Madame Web begins recruiting her as a replacement for herself.

1991 - Richard Wentworth jr., the descendant of the pulp-era anti-hero known as The Spider takes to the streets, and takes umbrage with the ‘pretender’ that is Peter Parker. He and Peter clash several times over the next few years, and the comic industry uses the presence of a ‘second Spider” to inflate the “Clone Saga” to ridiculous levels.

Thanks to developments from InGen being stolen when the company was liquidated in 1990, Efforts to Clone Spider-Man go forward under multiple groups. The results are nicknamed “Kaine” but artificial again technology doesn’t exist, so it wouldn’t bear fruit for many years.

1993 - May Parker Sr. passes away.

1995 - Richard Wentworth jr. goes to more volatile places around the world to sate his bloodlust.

Miles Morales born.

1996 - Gwen Stacy (II), niece of Gwen Stacy (via Gabriel Stacy) is born.

Mattie Franklin, a half-demon with arachnid affinities decided to become “Spider-Woman”. Her desire to prove herself causes quite a few problems.

1998 - Mayday Parker has her first outing as Spider-Girl under her parent's noses. After a few of these outings, she catches Mattie Franklin’s attention, who challenges her to a “Title Fight.” Mattie loses and chooses to go by “The Scarlet Spider” for a time afterward.

Benjamin Parker is born to Peter and Mary Jane Parker.

Cindy Moon is identified by the Nanjin and is kidnapped for ‘training’ by them. She ends up with a similar condition to Peter Parker.

2000 - Peter Parker retires from being Spider-Man and working Biotech to become a teacher at his old High School. Mayday Parker takes over properly as Spider-Girl.

2003 - Anya Corazon is kidnapped by the tattered remains of the organization known as Shocker and partly transformed into a quasi-magical cyborg super-soldier by them. She is rescued before she could be brainwashed by Kamen Rider (Kamen Rider Spirits). She takes her new ‘gift’ and becomes known as “Arana”, though people often call her “The Other Spider-Girl” to both her and Mayday’s annoyance.

2004 - Mattie Franklin dies battling drug-runners.

2005 - Samuel Thompson becomes bonded to the “Venom” Symbiot (or a facsimile thereof) by the U.S. Government. Dubbed “Agent Venom” he works with them as he furthers his military career.

Julia Carpenter takes over formally as Madame Web on the original’s passing.

2009 - Miles Morales is bitten by a spider carrying an attempt to create a retroviral payload to make Nanjin Adepts. He nearly dies from the venom, but it works -- with an added perk or two.

2011 - Miles Morales becomes Spider-Man with Peter and May’s blessings.

Kaine Parker reveals his existence to Peter, but more out of obligation, as he’d rather be left alone. He is not, thanks to mystical shenanigans. Even moving to Huston doesn’t help in that regard. He dubs himself “The Scarlet Spider”.

2012 - Cindy Moon escapes the Nanjin order and goes to “Spider-Man” to help. Mayday Parker does her best to get her settled after over a decade in isolation.

2013 - The “Ghost Spider” appears, and is eventually revealed to be Gwen Stacy (II), niece and namesake of the Gwen Stacy Peter knew. She is ‘accepted’ by the family, but has been through quite a lot and is often chastised for making bad decisions.

2018 - Miles Morales has his mind swapped with that of the extremely aged Otto Octavius via a dark ritual.

2019 - Miles Morales is freed of Otto’s domination of his mind. However, the Grand-Nephew of Otto Octavius (name currently unknown) begins causing him problems, dubbing himself the “Superior Spider-Man.”

This album contains colorful but lonely Seoul nights. - Live에서의 즐거움과 감동을 앨범으로 Band. Me.g.un (메건)의 1번째 EP ‘서울밤’ Me.g.un (메건) 은 Merry grin underground의 약자로 이름 그대로 underground 음악씬 에서 즐거운 공연을 하는 밴드로 이미 유명한 Band이다. 메건은 연주자 모두 각 파트에서 국내에서 손꼽히는 솔리스트들로 구성되어 10년 전 재즈클럽에서 연주를 시작으로 연주 중심의 밴드로 호흡을 맞춰왔다. 화려한 밴드 구성에 특색있는 보이스와 뛰어난 가창력을 소유한 보컬리스트 난아진 이 합류하여 더욱더 개성 있고 에너제틱한 모습의 밴드로 완성이 되었다. 긴 라이브 무대의 공연을 바탕으로 고심 끝에 만들어낸 첫 번째 미니 앨범 ‘서울밤’은 서울의 밤에 일어나는 일들에 대한 이야기로 꾸며졌다. 화려한 무대 뒤에는 언제나 공허함과 쓸쓸함이 남아있듯이 메건이 생각하는 서울의 밤은 때론 복잡하고 신나고 화려해 보이기도 하지만 한편에는 쓸쓸함이나 외로움이 남아있는 모습이었다. 이러한 생각들은 메건의 연주 스타일과 방향에도 큰 작용을 하였고 이번 앨범의 타이틀이 되었다. 첫 번째 곡 취한 밤은 멤버들이 즉흥으로 코드를 쓰고 리듬을 입히고 거기에 난아진 특유의 멜로디가 얹어져 만들어진 곡이다. 멤버들 모두 술을 잘 즐길 줄 알고 많은 추억이 술과 함께 취한 밤에 쌓여있다 보니 어쩌면 이 곡이야 말로 메건을 가장 잘 나타낼 수 있는 곡이 아닌가 싶다. 두 번째 곡 OK는 화려한 모습의 서울을 느낄 수 있는 곡으로 이미 라이브 무대에서 인정을 받은 메건의 모습을 그대로 옮겨 놓은 느낌의 곡이다. 관객들과 신나게 즐기며 함께 호흡하는 무대를 만들어가는 것이 메건의 모토인 만큼 듣는 이들이 곡을 듣는 순간만큼은 신나게 즐길 수 있게끔 만든 곡이다. 특히 이 곡은 라이브에서 이미 선보였었는데 앨범에는 새로운 편곡과 사운드에 변화를 주어 좀 더 리스너들에게 들을 거리를 만들어주었다. 세 번째 곡 ‘서울밤’ 은 앨범의 타이틀과도 같은 제목으로 화려함 뒤에 오는 쓸쓸함이랄까? 공연도 끝나고 신나는 뒤풀이도 끝난 새벽 이제는 모두다 가 버리고 혼자인 시간. 즐거웠지만 뒤에서 밀려오는 공허함과 쓸쓸함 거기에 담담함마저 주는 곳이다. 절제된 보이스와 피아노 연주, 색깔 있는 악기의 소리들이 더욱더 감성을 더해줄 것이다. 오색오미 (五色五味)의 다른 매력의 6명의 멤버가 모여 한 끼의 맛있는 식사 같은 앨범을 만들어내었다. 그들의 말에 의하면 현존하는 뒤풀이가 가장 재미있는 밴드라고들 한다. 평생 즐겁게 음악 하자는 Me.g.un의 음악에 흠뻑 취할 시간이다.

About Zhang Zhaohui: Comments and Resume

Richard Vine Art Critic, Managing editor of “Art in America” Author of “New China, New Art”

Zhang Zhaohui’s signature accomplishment is to bring all these varied, and often conflicting, associations together in solidly composed abstract works that have an eidetic effect on the viewer’s mind. Quantum physics and Song Dynasty landscapes, fleeting impressions and enduring substructures, the cosmological and the microscopic, nature’s linear changes and its cyclical stasis, diffuse illumination and focused, penetrating beams—all these and more are encompassed in Zhang’s art. This painter considers ink art a key contemporary mode of artmaking. So what does he depict? Only infinity—and its minutest details.

Robert C. Morgan Art Critic, Art Historian, Curator, Poet and Artist

Zhang Zhaohui’sLight Infinity Series opens our visible consciousness to a type of abstract visual vibration, elegantly mannered and focused on central imagery. His grids buckle, twist and turn through space, directing our eye toward a central source of light. Inevitably, Zhang’s ink paintings rest on his expertise in constructing optical forms through linear patterns that suggest “infinity” insofar as these grids might open new doors to perception. His work focuses on the geometric in contrast to the intuitive, or possibly an overlay between the two. I have never quite understood why geometry should not be used in an intuitive way. Zhang appears to understand this. That artist’s use of geometry has the option to follow its own logic or to move into realm of the imagination. On the other hand, they have the option to do both. His ink paintings do precisely this

PING JIE ZHANG Art Critic, Curator, Scholar and artist

If we reduce Zhang Zhaohui’s work to minimalism’s hard lines, even if it keeps the purity of gray, it becomes a third party, indifferent from lacking its spiritual and emotional components. Zhang’s works have built an entanglement ofdivinity and humanity, an integration of sensibility and rationality, and a convergence of abstract space and inner world, transcendingthe consensus of culture, geography and race.

Compared with the optical effects of rational light, that is often straightforward, dazzling, solitaryand stimulating, Zhang’s light is richer, more delicate, multi-dimensional and Oriental. Look at its modality: sometimes as solemn and silence; sometimes as flyingbetween construction space; sometimes as lingering gentle; sometimes as sharp and direct; sometimes as a meteor passing by; sometimes as undulating ripples.

This is not deliberately showing or depicting light, but a sequence of gray and a spatial tracethat different rhythms and dimensions left behind. In respect to aesthetic characters of Chinese art, it is necessary to have both water and brush in the gray. Water marks by a brush are essentialelements to a painting’s structural frame, structure is not ink, but strokes. In the New York school of painting, strokes and ink (black) are confounded as one; in Eastern ink, light ink (gray) strokes can alone become the mainstay of a picture.

— On the wicked wings of time, thy kingdom comes

Meet [ Kim Namjoon ]

He is a [ twenty-four ] year old [ owner of allure nightclub ] currently residing in [ nanjin duplex, #401 ]. Visit and greet him today!

Personality:

Namjoon lives up to his spirit, Peitho, goddess of persuasion and seduction. He’s flirtatious, overtly so. He’s known as the cheerful, happy go lucky and carefree. He lives for the thrill of life and doesn’t care for much else. He’s got the tough guy exterior, never letting anyone see what’s underneath. Underneath he’s a hopeless romantic, soft, caring, trusting, and vulnerable. He hates being vulnerable, so he hides behind the empty flirts, the crooked smiles, the raised eyebrow, the seducing voice. He hides behind all these mechanisms to make sure no one sees the truth. Although he’s a hopeless romantic, he doesn’t believe he’ll find love. He’s afraid to look. He doesn’t think he deserves love, so he avoids it. That doesn’t mean he can’t flirt and have his share of hookups, but he keeps everything short and pushes everyone away as soon as they start to see the true him. He’s truly a dork, secretly hoarding romance novels and romantic comedies. However if you are able to get close to him, and he doesn’t exactly push you away, then he trusts you. He’ll protect you with his life and won’t hesitate to help you. The ones he trusts are few. He’s kind and loyal at heart. Spirit: Peitho Power: Persuasion

Namjoon can compel people by speaking, the victims are unable to disobey; the seemingly cogent commandment is far too compelling. At high level, Namjoon can even persuade people into hurting/killing themselves or even flip around sense of logic, but can never cause victims to achieve what they are not capable of. This also carries over to when he sings, which is called a Siren’s song. His music can compell people to do the things he wants, draw them to him, or feel the emotions he wants them to feel, but only for a few moments. However they have to hear him for it to work. Those who are deaf will not be effected, and if someone has headphones on or when they cover their ears.

Biography: From a very young age, Namjoon heard the whispers about his mother. The whore. The slut. The seductress. Namjoon knew very well what they meant. When Namjoon turned nine, his family (him, his father, and his younger sister, who was few years younger than him) went on vacation to Hawaii. But there was something missing. His mother didn’t come. No matter how many times Namjoon asked his father where she was, there was no answer. Namjoon’s father was a powerful politician. He had appearances to keep up. Besides the aching suspicion that something was wrong, Namjoon and his sister had a wonderful time in Hawaii. It wasn’t until they returned that they learned of the true horror of love.

Namjoon’s mother, a stay at home wife, had left. She had packed all her bags and had left without a note. She ran away with the man she had been secretly seeing. In public, Namjoon’s father’s expression ever changed, he looked like he never felt a thing. However Namjoon knew the truth. At home his father would drown himself in alcohol and bury his head in his hands and just cry himself to sleep. Often, when the cries became too loud, Kimi would crawl into Namjoon’s bed and he would sing her to sleep. Whenever he sang her a lullaby, she would fall asleep instantly. He learned to hate his mother for the pain she caused his father, and he learned to fear love. To him, love was a dangerous thing. Something that seemed sweet at first, but slowly turned toxic and faded into utter sadness. He vowed to never fall in love with someone, so he wouldn’t hurt anyone and no one could hurt him. He only cared for his father and sister.

In high school, his fear of love became worse. As he grew older, his hormones began to become unbalanced. Like every other teenage boy, he experienced lust for the first time. He lusted after one of his close friends. She was popular in school, and he hardly got to spend time with her. But when he did, he felt his body yearn for her, and his heart wanted her to. Unaware of his powers, his desire for her caused him to use his powers. He used his words to get what he wanted. Well, one thing led to another and she was his first time and he was hers. However his conquest did not quench his thirst, and he released how poisonous lust could be as well. After they slept together, he ran, leaving her naked and alone. He ran as far as he could, to an unknown part of town. When he finally slowed down, he vomited. He was disgusted with himself. Disgusted in love and disgusted in lust.

For a while after he became aware of his powers, he avoided everyone. He began to drink heavily in high school to drown his self-hatred and hatred for the world. He lost most of his friends in high school, and rumors started that he was just a flirt that dumped girls after he slept with them. His first love began to hate him, and they avoided each other ever since. Slowly he learned to control his power. But too much lust was dangerous. Sure he could persuade a girl to love him, but deep down she wouldn’t really. His power could never make someone truly love him. After college, he purchased a bar and began to live out his days, alone, usually with a drink in his hand and an ache in his heart. His pain only got worse whenever he was around couples. Deep inside he yearned for true love, but he knew that he didn’t deserve it. Not with his powers. Not with his demons. Namjoon can usually be found at Allure, Ahnjin Health & Fitness, or Dim Share BBQ. Always alone. Always giving sly, smirks and winks to the people he found attractive.
