"not you Benjamin, you're a star"

being a comic fan feels like i'm constantly trying to play catch up. sure I may have read fifty runs but there are twenty more my mutuals are always blogging about that i've never even heard of. sure I can identify most of the members of the justice league from a double page spread but i can't name all of them and certainly not all their powers. as soon as i read another comic run a new one i've never heard of takes my attention before i can conquer the rest of my to-read list and the cycle repeats ad infinitum

readcomicsonline getting nuked is bad for all the obvious reasons but also its insane considering those artists/writers confessions that they get sent pages with the readcomicsonline banner at the bottom bc dc and marvel dont have any kind of internal reference or register for most shit. shooting themselves in the dick

Crucially Norman Osborn didn’t need to do like any of what he did for basically any reason. Nobody needs to get on a hoverboard and throw pumpkins around, And least of all a middle aged father

I picture Harry as having a lot of memories of baffling interactions with his dad that read almost exactly like the "What Would Leonard Bernstein Do?" John Mulaney bit

I know marvel wants Peter in all team books possible as of the last decade or two but I just think that the guy being simultaneously the friendly neighborhood spider-man and well known as an anti-social bitch in hero circles is just delightful

Even in the most teacherly variation you’re going to get… He still… …

I love that "avengers level threats" are peters side quests. hes like yeah yeah thanos chitauri whatever. have you seen the 6 cackling freaks that have literally unionized against me as an individual

one of the funniest things about peter is how staunchly anti-psychic he is. my guy you literally have a personal built-in psychic danger sense. but of course it's fine if he does it.
