In the preview Aunt May is seen lying on a hospital bed. Peter who is still running from the law (I don't know why he's a fugitive becasue he's registered) goes to Stark Tower and to tell Tony that its Tony's responsibility to take care of Aunt May because he has put Peter's family through hell. (Actually Peter you did that your self by taking off your mask) Tony, who is in costume smashes Peter out the window. Peter webs up Tony's jet boots and they fall many stories, Tony then switches power to his repulsor gloves and and fires them downward to break their fall. Tony hits the ground hard and Peter flips off of him. Tony yells at Peter that he's crazy and that he could have killed them. Peter seems indifferent. Peter tries to explain what he wanted to talk to Tony about but Tony tries to arrest Peter. Tony tries to fake out Peter with his repulsor but Peter knows from hanging with Iron Man that it's overheated from breaking their multi G fall. Peter lunges at Tony and punches him in the face and bloodies his hand. Tony tries to use his Uni-Beam at max power (Remember Marvel vs. Capcom 2)? Peter starts to wonder about what will happen if he lets loose and didn't hold back since his change in "the other". The last panel shows Iron Man all Webbed up and unable to move.....

[lightning]

This basically seems like a set up for why Peter can hit road with the New (New) Avengers without having to worry about MJ or Aunt May.

As for his fugitive status, I assume that he's not in trouble for not registering (after all, he already is), but for helping those who still refuse to register. A general amnesty was granted to those who voluntarily registered, but some people still refused and are currently fugitives (Luge Cage & the New Avengers). Spideys in trouble with the law because he's helping them.

[MAK15]

dear lord Im looking forward to this.

[xarathos]

IT's amazing how much Peter Parker looks exactly like Matt Murdock in Daredevil: Father.

I think they should stop calling it Spider-man anymore. I mean, he won't even be wearing the freaking suit!:mad:

How about Mystic Man!:)

where's his arm stingers!")

[Venom]

That sounds really cool.

Haha ha, Iron man got webbed up bad. :D

A jerk like him deserves it because it was him that sort of talked Peter into unmasking and his actions within Civil War that convince him to switch sides. :o


So in a way Tony should at least try to help out Aunt May, if not for Peter then Do it for Jervis. :(

[Arilou]

As someone put it: At the rate they're writing Iron man they might just as well give him Repulsor Horns and a Uni-Beam pitchfork.

funny!
does he give stock options if you sell your soul?

[Red Lotus]

This sounds pretty good. Can some one post some scans or do I have to go out and buy this issue,

[olympichero62]

It doesn't drop until August. I'm sure they'll have some more news and pictures in a short while.

[Red Lotus]

I was talking about scans from the preview in Wizard.

[myslead]

woooh, the other Spiderman > extremis Ironman

[olympichero62]

I wouldn't go that far. Lets just wait till the thing comes out before we start making wild assumptions like we do so often on these boards.

[Cody H]

Agreed. I mean, we've only got an out of context preview to go by here, but damn, I gotta say, Tony really seems like a hug prick these days. I'm all for an ass-kicking but hopefully we get to see some kind of redeemable quality from him soon.

[We R. Venom]

I wouldn't go that far. Lets just wait till the thing comes out before we start making wild assumptions like we do so often on these boards.

This man is a genius!

[wingsofdamnation]

didnt want to start a new thread so i figured i'd ask on another spidey thread. why has spidey gone back to the black costume? theyve been hyping it up for the past few months and then in civil war 7 its only a single panal of him in it and cage saying nice outfit.

[mrjasontodd]

thats pretty sick. spidey is all hardcore now.

[Sparda]

When spidey cut's loose with his powers, know's some of his enemies weaknesses, and has a few tricks up his sleeve, he can take down foes way out of his league. Rhino and Electro themselves as well as sandman is out of spidey's league and he beat's them. He awesomely beaten firelord in that frenzy of his, if he did the same to Tony, no doubt he'll win. But how does Peter counter act the IM senses that Tony gained though?

[lonewolf23k]

A jerk like him deserves it because it was him that sort of talked Peter into unmasking and his actions within Civil War that convince him to switch sides. :o

"Sort Of"? I was under the impression Peter only unmasked in front of a live TV audiance because Tony told him it'd be a great idea..

So, yeah, it is all Tony's fault.

[CyberCoyote]

It doesn't drop until August. I'm sure they'll have some more news and pictures in a short while.

These previews are for a book in August? Am I misinterpreting this? How long can they string the story out? That's like Days of our Lives slow..

[xarathos]

"Sort Of"? I was under the impression Peter only unmasked in front of a live TV audiance because Tony told him it'd be a great idea..

So, yeah, it is all Tony's fault.

Yeah, that made sense.... not.

[mattspideyrocks!]

Yeah, that made sense.... not.

How is it not? It's true. If Tony wasn't there pressuring him into unmasking and continually telling him how great an idea it would be to do so, Peter never would have done that. It's called peer pressure.

You have to read ASM 539 to find out more. The part in Civil War 7 with him in the black costume took place weeks after Civil War 7. ASM 539 will take place hours after Civil War and deal what happen to his Aunt May and put him back in black.

[The Shelf]

It's not Tony's fault. He pressured Peter into doing it, but he never forced him to. Peter felt like he owed him something because he took his family in. It's nice to always blame peer pressure for making us do the things we don't want to do, but ultimately we do them because we think we have to in order to fit in or because we owe someone something. Peter made the choice so it's his fault. He's being immature by blaming Tony for it, but, hey, that's okay because it makes for a good story element, right? ;)

EDIT: Oh, also, if anyone made Peter do it, it was his family, not Tony. They wanted "the world" to see how great he was. Peter was going to run away after Tony told him to reveal his identity, but his family made him change his mind.

I never bought it. Well, I bought it, I just didn't BUY it! It was done to easy, just like everything in CW. I could see him having to reveal his powers infront of people, maybe even people he knew, then they put two and two together. Doing it this way didn't really amount to anything. Plus, the whole story wasn't about Spider-man it was about other books. Amazing seemed to be just as much about Iron Man as it did about SPidey for a few months.
You had two pages of J. Jonah Jameson and Robbie Robertson reaction then it's back to the war. That's the story I wanted to read, not about some ill-defined conflict. It didn't have an affect.

I'm not saying the whole Parker versus Stark thing isn't a good idea, though.
Check out the amazing Parker-man below.

[Chachi]

So with Quesada doing art,we'll get 1 issue before the end of the year? :evilsmile

[myslead]

Tony used his influence of the dad that peter was seeing in him. it was subtle but it was there.

[xnef1025]

The craziest thing is, if one of Tony's main reasons for going ahead and fully backing the SHRA was so he could position himself into a position of being able to be the one to keep his "friend's" identities safe, what does that say about how he really feels about Peter. He helped put the idea of revealing the secret ID into the Parker family's heads to begin with. Pete could have had the press conference, announce he supported Registration because it was both the right thing and it allowed him to keep his civilian identity and his family safe. That would have brought tons of heroes around right there. "We can keep our day jobs? Awesome! Sign me up!" Doing that though, would not have led to the chain reaction that caused the final conflict and CW ending damage that cemented Tony's power position. Unless Doc Strange has a Flash-like forget spell hidden away in his cloak, Peter's ID is forever screwed thanks to Tony using him like a pawn.

Hell, Tony wasn't sure what Peter was going to do until right before the press conference. I'm not even sure if he knew going in that Pete was going to unmask in front of everbody as oppose to simply giving his support to the pro registration side.

Tony's got a lot of things he ought to feel shame about, but I think he gets a free pass on this one.

[xarathos]

So with Quesada doing art,we'll get 1 issue before the end of the year? :evilsmile

I'm fairly certain he's done with most (if not all) of it.

Check this out..

'My eyes are HUGE!'

MJ & May told Peter what he wanted to hear.

[The Shelf]

MJ & May told Peter what he wanted to hear.

But Peter didn't want to hear that... He was going to bail on them even after they told him to unmask or whatever it was they told him to do exactly. Peter didn't give in until the next morning when May handed him his old costume. Tony's guilty of a lot of things, including deceiving and manipulating Peter, but I just can't see how it's his fault Peter unmasked.

[xarathos]

I was talking about scans from the preview in Wizard.

Yeah, I have some.

[Cody H]

MJ & May told Peter what he wanted to hear.How so? I don't think Peter wanted to unmask at all, he didn't want to put them in danger.

[ManSpider]

It's not Tony's fault. He pressured Peter into doing it, but he never forced him to. Peter felt like he owed him something because he took his family in. It's nice to always blame peer pressure for making us do the things we don't want to do, but ultimately we do them because we think we have to in order to fit in or because we owe someone something. .

isn t that the deffinition of peer pressure?

[xarathos]

Here's another one.

There's two more pages, I didn't scan those though.

[The Shelf]

isn t that the deffinition of peer pressure?

Woops, good catch. I guess I lost track of what I was saying. My point is that it's really impossible to blame peer pressure for anything since ultimately it's our choice to make and no one else's. Peer pressure is only as influential on us as we allow it to be.

[Kefky]

Two things... First, as much fun as it would be to see Spidey hitting Tony again, this seems a lot more like a dream sequence then something that's actually happening. ;)

Secondly, I think a lot of people are remembering the conversation between Tony and Peter in 532 wrong. Tony tells Peter that he wants EVERYONE on his side to unmask. He gave him a choice. Either you unmask and come to my side, or we'll never speak again. He even gives him a day to decide. If you look at the issue, he seems positively shocked when Spidey shows up at the last minute, right before Tony's about to speak to the president. If any "manipulation" took place there it's the same kind of manipulation he used on pretty much on all the other pro-regs to get them to come to his side. And to me, at least it seems a lot more like the acts of a desperate man then anything else. And that fits pretty well with the way he's been written during the crossover.

Either way, it was still Spidey's decision, and HIS responsibility. If you're gonna blame Tony for any shit Spidey gets now, you might as well blame Cap for Goliath's death too. These people were fully aware of what they were getting into when the whole business started. If their decision turned out to be a f*ck-up, it's essentially their fault, and nobody else's.

Okay, end of rant. ;)

[Dougy]

This might sound overly harsh, but May really has to die here. This thing has been hyped up SO much by Marvel that is something big like May's death dosen't happen I'll throw the comic across the room in fustration!

[Cody H]

This might sound overly harsh, but May really has to die here. This thing has been hyped up SO much by Marvel that is something big like May's death dosen't happen I'll throw the comic across the room in fustration!Nah, go check out the "Aunt May Must Die!!!" thread for overly harsh. Seriously, they're pratically dancing on her grave over there. ;)

But how does Peter counter act the IM senses that Tony gained though?


Lol. well if he can take them out it's not out of his league. I get the impression the "Other" stuff will be key to Spidey in the future as once again "SPIDERMAN'S WORLD IS ROCKED IN A MANNER WE HAVE NEVER SEEN AND HE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!" for the like, 11,000th time. :D

As far as IM goes, Petey can always open him up like a can of tuna with the stingers. I know Tony's armor is enhanced but it has a crush point and ol Pete is mystically enhanced. I look forward to Spider surprising himself.

[BooCoo]

So with Quesada doing art,we'll get 1 issue before the end of the year? :evilsmile

It will likely be grandiose and 'overwrought.' ;)

[BooCoo]

Yeah, I have some.

Cripes, what ugly artwork. Peter looks like a bug eyed, homely freak with no body definition under his clothes. His limbs look like a twisty ragdoll. Will someone tell these people to lay off all the black ink???

[SnakeEater]

In the preview Aunt May is seen lying on a hospital bed. Peter who is still running from the law (I don't know why he's a fugitive becasue he's registered) goes to Stark Tower and to tell Tony that its Tony's responsibility to take care of Aunt May because he has put Peter's family through hell. (Actually Peter you did that your self by taking off your mask) Tony, who is in costume smashes Peter out the window.

i think that alone proves this is horsde crap. not the spoiler, i havent read the wizard issue yet, but the fact that Tony did in fact FORCE Peter to make such a desicion, and then when it came down to it in the end, didnt even bother giving Peter one of those immunities he is obviously giving Sue Storm because she is bascially sleeping with his partner in this matter - Mister Fantastic. peter stuck by with Tony throughout the whole thing and only pointed out what was wrong with the REG, and then in the end he is going to let Peter's life go down the toilet anyhow? This story is going to suck and this whole thing just ruins spider-man

[The Shelf]

and then when it came down to it in the end, didnt even bother giving Peter one of those immunities he is obviously giving Sue Storm

Everyone on Cap's side was offered amnesty (if that's what you meant by immunities) at the end of Civil War. The New, New Avengers refused it. So once again, it's Pete's fault, not Tony's.

[CMBMOOL]

I being reminded of the argument that Captain America and Iron Man had within the ruins of Avengers Mansion during that CAusalities one-shot, how they argue how Iron Man used Peter for his own purpose.

Iron Man KNEW that Spider-man had a record with the Feds, so what better way of him for him to gain more heroes within the war then having the most wanted hero unmasked during a press confrence in front of the entire nation for all to see.


Iron Man may have given the idea for Peter to decide, and while it was Peter's decision, Tony WAS the one who thought of it and told him of it after all he done for his family.

[Red Lotus]

Yeah, I have some.

Thank you very much.

It looks pretty cool. Can't wait till it comes out.

[JonathanSK]

Okay, sorry if this has already been covered, but I just got my March Marvel Previews, and I don't see any mention of ASM or SSM.

Are they not being released in May?

Thanks!

[xarathos]

OH here's the last couple pages and another pic of Spidey. He gave Spidey stick arms for some reason.

[mushroom2703]

Well, I gotta admit, I haven't cared about spider-man in a LONG time. I loved the clone saga. I thought Ben Reilly was a great character. And I don't like or buy JMS' work. Is that jus because I don't like his direction, or is it because i don't like marvel editorials direction on spidey? I don't know. In fact the only spiderman I've read and enjoyed in the last few years was been MK 1-12, and Bendis' take on him in NA. Yes, I sais Bendis. However, I don't @!"£ on good work when I see it. And this looks great. I've wondered to myself if there is anything interesting that can be done with Spider-man anymore,but I'll definetely check this out. Hopefully back in black will put my money and enjoyment back into his books.

[BooCoo]

OH here's the last couple pages and another pic of Spidey. He gave Spidey stick arms for some reason.

Weird!

I guess arms take too long to draw...the last one is frightening. You almost wanna squeeze spidey's legs so some bulk will push up to his arms!

Nice to see IM all trussed up like that, tho...at least Peter didn't poke him with a stinger and eat his head. ;)

[Red Lotus]

[handOFfate]

I've been saying it since the beginning of Civil War. Iron Man is the new Green Lantern. He basically burns and falls, then a new storyline is set up where he slowly redeems himself.

[JonathanSK]

So if we're to believe it's Aunt May who is close to death, why do they keep mentioning his marriage?

I'm still placing my bets on the theory that somehow Peter will choose to wipe his identity as Spider-man from everyone, including MJ. That somehow she will not remember anything about the marriage, but he will....

Call me crazy... :rolleyes:

[Dusty.]

Those pages look sweet as hell! They ruined Spider-Man by unmasking him, and I fear what's ahead with MJ, but I'll be getting this for Quesada's art.

How many issues does this run for?
