Suitable love interests for Black Cat

[midnightshrink]

I think Carlie Cooper deserves a stand up guy like John Jameson Jr. or Sam Wilson aka The Falcon. I just noticed there aren't any stand up guys in Marvel really.

I like Morbius/Hardy in the cartoon and I think he needs a love interest

She had one but he died in Punisher

Why are you so insistent on Spidey trading his former romantic partner to someone else in exchange for their ex-lover? That's really not how it works, unless your in a swingers club or perhaps some culture which treats women like property. What do you have against Felicia anyways? Why can't he "exchange" Carlie Cooper or whatever?

I feel that Black Cat should be in Daredevil/Hawkeye's world as she could make some of their solo adventures interesting as a frequent guest that promotes the story. Black Widow and Spider-Woman would do well in Spider-Man's world as a guest in some of his story arcs. And I am talking about Peter Parker having a platonic relationship with Natasha Romanoff and Jessica Drew, who should have been two of Peter's closest friends from the very beginning prior to the introduction of the Black Cat.

Spider-Man doesn't have any other super heroines(with the exception of Carol Danvers) as a close friend in contrast to Wolverine, Human Torch, Beast, and Thor. Thus, it would be nice to see Peter get to know Natasha and Jessica outside of the Avengers social cycle and into their respective social settings and vice versa. And he has done that with Carol Danvers. So an expansion along those lines wouldn't hurt regarding Spider-Woman and Black Widow.

Hawkeye isn't really a solo book though, it's about Clint and his relationship with his protege Kate Bishop. That's what makes it interesting. Adding Felicia as a 3rd wheel could possibly ruin that dynamic.

Well, I didn't get the platonic thing, because the thread is talking about suitable love interests for Felicia and the poll is asking for a good Black Cat "replacement" for Spidey, who has always been seen as a on-again off-again girlfriend. I don't really see why Spidey should be specifically BFFs with Jessica and Natasha, just because they all dress like spiders. If anything, they'd probably be more likely rivals, accusing each other of copying their styles!

Personally, I'd like to see Spidey team up more often with Emma Frost, those X-Men issues where they battled the Lizard were really funny, and the "Marvel Adventures" version of Emma Frost had a crush on Peter Parker to boot.

I also wouldn't mind seeing Spidey team up with Firestar more often, even if it's only "platonic."

I'd say Venom/Flash Thompson.

They used to date for awhile back when he was plain old Flash. Now that he has spider/symbiote powers, and given her attraction to spiders? She'd be in heaven. And remember, she was so into the symbiote back in the day that she sewed several spare copies of it for Peter after he ditched the real thing. Venom all the way.

Not sure if Flash will want anything to do with Felicia at this point. And remember that Dan Slott originally planned to kill off the Black Cat. Whatever happens, I doubt that Felicia will be in Flash's social circles anytime soon.

I didn't think this was a serious thread. More like if Felicia was picking out her next guy from a catalog, or something. Flash wouldn't have a say in that case. Like cats in real life, the Black Cat picks you, you don't pick her.

Yeah. But we're talking about Felicia around Daredevil, Hawkeye, or Mystique because they would fill the void that Spider-Man left behind.

But that Hardy was hardly "Hardy" and more "Stacy" when she was with Morbius. ..which makes me want to ship Morbius/Gwen for The Amazing Spider-Man 2!

[rob fleming]

Marvel should totally publish a one shot titled "Blackcat does the marvel universe". Make it like Punisher kills the marvel universe only funnier.

and sexier.

I also like the idea of her and Flash. She wanted to marry him and was clearly affected by the breakup...

However, between Betty and Thorwomangirl and Sha Shan being his physical therapist (although I suppose no longer when he goes to Philly), adding Felicia would give Flash a harem. I still would like to see a Flash/Felicia reunion even if it's a platonic one.

Felicia would have to move to Philly. If Dan had the chance to use Venom and Black Cat for the Ends of the Earth story, we might have seen some Flash and Felicia moments. Although, I feel that Black Cat would be better serve around Daredevil and Hawkeye than with Venom/Flash with the creepy symbiote hovering overhead. Imagine the travesty with the Black Cat dies at the hands of Rhino if the original version of Ends of the Earth was published? Flash would have been devastated and would blame Spider-Man for her death.

Hi Hambone,
I agree with you statement. I asked the writer of Hawkeye about a possible Black Cat appearance. He said that the Black Cat is not going to appear in Hawkeye anytime soon as the book is about accessibility to the readers.

As for you concerns regarding Black Widow and Spider-Woman as BFF of Spider-Man. It has nothing to with their Spider-Theme costumes at all. I focus on their respective personalities which sometimes contrast to that of Peter Parker. I like the dynamic between Spider-Man, Spider-Woman, and Black Widow beyond their costume identity.

Not Doc Ock. The 1st time they met he put her in the hospital for months. Remember that old PPTSSM storyline in the 80s? That a great basis for starting a relationship.

I'd have to go with Galactus.
