    Case and point, Legend of Korra is a kids show and it drew in 4.5 million viewers and took the title of top animated show. Yet it doesn't rely on the same childish gimmicks as Ultimate Spider-Man.

    And most importantly: It treats it's fanbase, whatever young or old with respect. Like the quote again, a show like Young Justice makes references to famous sci-fi writers, while Ultimate Spider-Man thinks that children do nothing more than play video games and watch MTV, while alongside being all ADHD wackos.

    Oh Bendis... Not that hes to fault, this show is his job.

    The funny thing is the very first Spider-Man comics were written for 8 year olds and yet 50 years later there are grown men who like the stories enough to spend hundreds of dollars to get them in meticulously restored hardcover books. The ultimate proof that being "for kids" does not equate to "being stupid."

    I do hope Marvel learns from this.

    At the very best Jeph Loeb will get fired from his job after Ultimate Spider-Man and Hulk: Agents of SMASH gets canceled. I really wish they'd get Joshua Fine back, i don't think Christoper Yost is avaiable anymore due to his promotion to work on Marvel Cinema world.

    The sad thing is I saw Jeph Loeb getting made head of TV as a way of him being kicked upstairs so he couldn't do anymore damage in the comics world. But hes just inflicting his same cancer in TV Land.

    His son died of bone cancer.
    Anyone who doesn't like Miles Morales is a racist.

    And then he ruined The Ultimates, almost beyond repair, his son's favourite comic book.

    PS: I thought Sam Loeb died in a car accident.

    Not to mention The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes and The Spectacular Spider-Man being so superior to this show and still being FOR KIDS! Having a show and making childish and saying "IT'S FOR KIDS" is no longer an excuse. Sorry MARVEL...

    Believe it or not, you're the second person in a month to make a Loeb cancer analogy without knowing about his son.

    Sam absolutely loved The Ultimates. I'm not making anything up, I honestly swear to god thought he died in a car accident.
