In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Shailene Woodley revealed that scenes she had filmed for Amazing Spider-Man 2 will not be in the film. It seems her introduction has been saved for ASM 3.

Quote:
"Of course I'm bummed," said the actress. "But I'm a firm believer in everything happening for a specific reason....based on the proposed plot, I completely understand holding off on introducing (Mary Jane) until the next film."

Personally, I think the narrative works much better this way and, while I understand Marvel/Slott's decision to "ease the pain of transistion" with Ghost Peter for the first 9 issues of Superior, I think it would have worked better without it.

What do you guys think? Was it a "necessary evil" to ease some readers into the idea of SpOck? Or was it an unecessary narrative device that distracted from the overall direction?

So I've wanted to get into comics for a long time but have never been able to financially.Now that I'm able to I'm still finding myself very overwhelmed by the fact that my favorite super hero, Spider-man, has 700 issues. I've asked multiple friends and they tell me they just jumped into the current stuff and looked up everything online that they didn't know. Now as a completionist I cant stand the idea of not starting from the very beginning. I've read both the wiki on Spider-man titles and the sticky thread on where to start but it seems that there are a lot of different collections that cover the same things or include things others do not or are collections that have yet to be completed or never were completed. Is there a series of reprints/collections/omnibuses that everyone agrees on? I just need a "what to buy" list. Thank you and I appreciate any and all help. ]]> Spider-Man Mr.Sixter http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?457811-Still-not-sure-where-to-start-I-read-the-sticky-I-swear! <![CDATA[Bunn Targets the Philly Underworld in "Venom"]]> http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?457802-Bunn-Targets-the-Philly-Underworld-in-quot-Venom-quot&goto=newpost Wed, 19 Jun 2013 14:58:02 GMT "Venom" writer Cullen Bunn discusses the series current arc, which finds the title character targeting the Philadelphia underworld and leads to the debut of the newest member of the symbiote family: Mania.

I reviewed it with pictures here if anyone is interested.

As a double shipped book there isn’t a comic on the stands that leans more on the reader to keep up with every single issue than this series. It’s the epitome of serial comics, which is fine and dandy if you’re reading every issue, but if you come in cold you could be at a loss for why the comic is so good. I think Dan Slott knows the reader isn’t stupid, so he doesn’t hold your hand but instead hearkens back to previous tidbits dropped or character developments that push the story forward. Which is one reason why it’s so hard to review this book and give it a high grade. The reader going in blind, even with the opening summary, won’t really appreciate what we’ve got going here. This is a series that, if read through completely, is going to be remembered as a classic. Christos Gage wrote this, but it's Slott's plot that keeps me coming back for more.

The sweeping nature of this ongoing story is an amazing thing. A lot of folks get burned out on a story, or the story gets old and boring. Just look at Scott Snyder’s Court of Owls storyline and you can see a story that overstayed its welcome. This series however continues to slowly drop details and plot with merciless patience.

spoilers:
When J.J. tells SpOck to kill the slayer, and we see a spider-bot seemingly watching, we know that's going to be used against J.J. later. I suspect some fans are going to cry foul when we get the Dark Knight plot twist at the end of this issue. Spider-Man must choose between saving J.J., a group of bystanders, or kill the villain. Am I the only one who thinks this is an awesome way to show how far SpOck is willing to go in his evilness?
end of spoilers

This issue is going to be an important one for major later developments, which makes it all the more profound and interesting. When J.J. gets a close up that takes up a third of the page you know it means something and it looks as if we’re entering a world where it is widly known Spider-Man kills. Yipes. Of course, now that Superman kills (in the movies anyway) I suppose audiences won’t be taken aback so much. The fact that there’s so much gravity brought down on this issue of Spider-Man killing though, it’s pretty clear Marvel is handling it much better than Warner Brothers did with Man of Steel. A good thing. ]]> Spider-Man nosocialize100 http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?457791-Superior-Spider-Man-12-Spoilers-Discussion A spiderMEN title http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?457764-A-spiderMEN-title&goto=newpost Wed, 19 Jun 2013 06:10:51 GMT With all the crazyness that's going on in the spiderman corner of the MU, and all the spiderMEN that are coming to town. Would you like to see a spiderman title consisting of all spiderMEN? I'd like to see some sort of big event that brings them all together

Amazing spiderman (if he returns)
Superior spiderman
Spiderman 2099
Scarlet spider (Kaine)
Scarlet spider (Ben)
Ultimate spiderman (if he eventually comes across)

I think an all spiderMEN title would be great fun. Written by yost and art by stegman...

If u don't like the idea, what do you think should be done with all these spiderMEN? I think it would be a little strange to have them all floating around the MU joining different teams. Or having there own solos. There's too many of them now with the introduction of Ben and Miguel.
