Happy Noodle Boy posted:Cover: Hulk Fighting the Avengers The best is one of Millar's issues of Marvel Knights Spider-Man where the X-Men are on the god drat cover of the book and their actual appearance is just them, in civilian clothes, on a loving subway in the background of a superhero fight or some poo poo like that.

The recent X-Men cover with X-23 kissing young Cyclops was hilarious because so many people got mad, and then nothing happened.

To be fair we KNOW the corp was pretty much destroyed, we just haven't SEEN it yet.

I wonder if the Captain Britains attempted something like what Hyperion, Thor, Starbrand and the Ex Nihilos are planning on doing and went to try and fight the cause of the incursions only to have it not really work out for them.

Does anyone remember how in the old Captain Britain comics, Roma and Saturnyne had a device that enabled them to completely erase an entire universe from the omniverse? That would probably come in handy for dealing with incursions...

Actually, I think my favorite part of that is that alternate/What If? Spider-Men always eat it, so they kept that theme going. I hope he shows up in the issue.

I like how in one of the Civil War What Ifs? he gets killed and Gyrich pulls off his mask and goes "whos this?" and his flunky says "Some kid, who cares?".

There's also the What If: Siege issue where Venom is kicking the poo poo out of Spider-Man and Osborn's like, "Wait, wait, wait. I just want to see something." *unmasks Spider-Man* "Huh. As you were."

It also happened to Spider-Man in 616, in one of the JMS era spin-offs (maybe the one Millar wrote, but I'm not sure). Electro puts him in the hospital and he's abducted from his room by the Vulture, who unmasks him and basically goes, "All these years, you've been beating me and all my friends... any you're nobody. Boy, this is depressing."

That was Millar. Who woulda thought he could write some good Spider-Man comics?

There was also the goofy scene in Ultimate Spider-Man where Black Cat takes off Peter's mask and flips out because he's like 15.

twistedmentat posted:I though Osborne knew Peter was Spider-man in recent years but didn't care. I don't know where I got that idea. Oh very much the opposite. Osborn cares a great deal about the fact. One of my favourite things that happened in Civil War was after Peter revealed his Identity and it cuts to how his different villains react. And most of them are like "huh>" Otto (who is pumping iron at the time) is just baffled at how a teenager was able to repeatedly school him. But the best is Norman. Who is watching the thing while under armed guard at a SHIELD facility. And he's apoplectic with rage, because "that's not how the game is supposed to work!" Norman is a huge control freak, and valued knowing Peter's secret. It gives him another weapon to use against him. But the more people who know it, the less valuable it becomes. After One More Day, Norman couldn't remember Peter's ID, but he knows that he's supposed to know the Identity. (which is something that is just likely to drive him even crazier.) But I took it that if he ever did find out about the Identity, he'd get over not knowing about it really quickly. Think of it this way. Imagine someone asked you who was the girl who played the Terminator in Sarah Connor Chronicles. And you can't quite remember the answer, but you can picture her. You'd be driven mad trying to remember it, but as soon as you are told the answer, then all the pressure goes away.
