Oh I wish my son were a little older but he’s not quite ready for the meta-level this is pitched at. But he’s a big fan of Marvel comics and in particular, The Flash. That character seems to be most teenage boys’ favourite (cf Big Bang Theory) but also a great place to start in the complex tangle of Marvel stories.

In reply to Jenny. No, I would not. I would just be sad. I might even be..inconsolable. (cues soap opera song)

In reply to Jenny. Once? The Russian Xman who could turn into metal, Colossus? He was turned evil and declared that his new superhero name was the PROLETARIAT. That was awesome. He work suspenders and a thing with a sickle.

In reply to softdrink. Same, actually. Not that Archie comics aren't awesome.

In reply to Charlie. Right? They could TOTALLY do all sorts of things with that story! There are so many ways that could go, I just can't understand how every single Marvel writer for the past two decades has just let that sit there.

In reply to Nish. I wonder if they'd ever do that movie. It would be fun but might be too wacky for the general movie-going crowd, you think?

In reply to anna. You would not! You would say "How are YOU going to criticize something for being soapy? You still sing songs from your DEFUNCT SOAP OPERA."

In reply to Kim (Sophisticated Dorkiness). My idea does not involve the baby being dead. That would be sad. My idea is sad too but in a different way. IT IS GENIUS.

In reply to aartichapati.

Errrrr, I don’t know. How really is REALLY? I am not that into them in the sense that I don’t think I’ve read any…? Marvel comics maybe ever?, in the classic serieses. My knowledge has all been picked up from the films and things other people have said to me.

Short version is this: Gwen is the AWESOME FIRST girlfriend Spiderman has, and she is better in every way. Mary Jane is the second lame one I don’t care about. GWEN is where it’s at.
