Rant about Superior Spider-Man

Bro. You put your article in the teaser, in the actual text you have what shows up whenever somebody starts writing (u r supposed to delete the "Contributing is a privilege" etc.) I suggest you put the text in the actual article, not just the teaser. Hope it helped :)

-Ock is not supposed to be "better". the Superior in the name is tongue in cheek , he thinks of HIMSELF as superior to Peter Parker.
Nobody ACTUALLY thinks he is better than Peter, Marvel ESPECIALLY knows this.

-of course it didn't need to be done. NOTHING in comics needs to be done. No story is necessary, they're just stories.

This is all temporary. its all just one story arc, which will wrap up when Peter gets his revenge on.

Question: If the Doc ock story was told in Amazing Spiderman #698-710, would you really have given a flying f***? No. You would have been like "oh, Doc ock is in Spidey's brain, sweet!". and you'd know that it would all settle itself eventually when Peter gets back, cus of course he's not dead and gone.

They needed a number one issue, Doc Ock gave them their number one issue. and when its all over, Peter will be back with a brand spanking new Amazing Spiderman #1.

Its marketing, pure and simple. I am baffled by the protest against this, its like you guys don't know how comics work, after how many years of reading them!

Slott seeded this story through his whole run, and you have no idea of his endgame. You honestly would not buy a copy of Superior Spiderman, to see what Doc Ock would do as Spiderman? are you that jaded? its an insanely awesome concept, and i can probably name about 10,000 stories more horrible than this idea.

Years from now, people will remember this as "the time Ock stole Peter's body and ran around with it."
I, however, will remember people cracking a major naive wobbly over a completely inocuous story arc. People like this make me hate reading comments.

Yeah, why is Marvel trying so hard to ruin Spider-Man? It all went down hill since One More Day. The truth of the matter is we all have to sit around and wait for a team of editors and writers to finally come in and clean up the mess created by Quesada and Slott.

Why doesnt anyone let things play out a little bit before jumping to hate? This is obviously temporary. Probably last a year, if that. Could be some cool stories out of it. I'm not a Spider-Man reader but I would think it would be cool to see how Doc Ock acts as Spider-Man and Peter Parker. Especially when he is around MJ or other Marvel heroes. At the very least, it would be worth giving a read. If its no good, just stop buying. That's the easiest and best way for fans to tell Marvel they aren't happy.

I think it was a terrible idea to replace Peter's mind with Doc Ock's, but lets be real.

Peter Parker will be back. Anyone that doesn't think so has not read comics for very long. Every major character that gets killed off always returns. Remember when they killed Cap a few years back? What about Batman? What about Superman? Human Torch? Its not really that big of a deal, honestly.

I think they could have had someone other than Ock take his place. That doesn't really make any sense.

But that's the difference between Marvel and DC. Spider-Man IS Peter Parker, the HULK IS Bruce Banner, Iron Man IS Tony Stark. DC characters are just powers like the Lantern or Flash. Marvel is more character driven, you can't just replace Peter, Bruce, or Tony.

BTW, I think USM's death was meaningful and admirable, unlike this recent pile of poop. That's right. I said poop.

Poop.

I am inches away from hating the Ultimate Universe (Earth-1610), but this death in comparison is on par with Heroes Reborn. GFYs!
