>kills Spider-Man after 133 issues
>brings him back and renumbers the series
>MJ breaks up with Peter for literally no reason just so Bendis can do a pornhub step sister plot
>kills Spider-Man again after 25 issues
lol what the frick, why didn't Bendis just wrap everything up with Ultimatum?
That whole period was so weird, Bendis didn't know what the hell he was doing
>Human Torch and Iceman now live with Peter in a quasi-Amazing Friends adaptation
>Peter is dating Gwen for some reason
>MJ is dressing like a hipster
>Mysterio is being set-up as Peter's new nemesis
>Kitty became a vigilante and can now harden herself (???)
>Peter is about to be trained by the Ultimates...
And then Bendis just felt like killing Peter off. It felt very last minute.
Even weirder how Gwen ressurected and was Peter's sister figure and then just went over Peter for sex
for the rest of the Ultimate universe, they just don't mention the fact that she's a clone
>they just don't mention the fact that she's a clone
Because she's not a clone - she's Ultimate Carnage and simply remembers Gwen's life and thinks it's Gwen
So a clone, you can count hairs and say "she is Gwen's mental template on the body of a shapeless shapeshifter" but it's a clone and was introduced as the new Gwen in the clone saga: clone.
Between this and Doc Ock suddenly being Magneto 2.0 because Bendis wrote himself into a corner, Ultimate Clone Saga was kinda moronic.
That was an amusing twist that you could only get away with in an AU.
>Bendis didn't know what the hell he was doing
His entire career
>And then Bendis just felt like killing Peter off. It felt very last minute.
To whatever extent Bendis ever plans things, this wasn't something that had been in the works for long. When the Amazing Spider-Man movie was announced, "who will be cast as the new Spider-Man?" blew up on social media, there was a campaign for it to be Donald Glover, and got a lot of attention and inspired Bendis to kill Peter and replace him with Miles, which became such a big publicity stunt for Marvel that it shaped the entire direction of Alonso's time as EiC.
Who THE FRICK had the idea of casting that talentless homosexual as Spider-Man in first place? Everyone wanted Tobey on the ride again, Drake Bell whom came to voice him later, or the Kid from Journey to the Center of the Earth.
Donald Glover was pretty much going to his 30's at that time.
God i fricking hate the obongo administration.
Community was very big at the time
Plus he was blowing up in the Cinemaphile scene with the early Childish Gambino mixtapes.
And people still knew him from Derrick Comedy. Mystery Team had come out the year before. And Bro Rape was still being referenced.
They weren't brother sister she just lived at his house.
man what was Pichelli thinking with that hairstyle
I thought David Lafuente did the hairstyle and Pichelli just had to follow that
It was the style at the time.
No way. In fact they realized it was a mistake which is why one of the issues started with a scene where Gwen and MJ drag him into the bathroom so they could give him a haircut.
conditioning
>They weren't brother sister she just lived at his house.
I didn't mean literally, I meant that Peter considered her his sister, when Gwen resurrected and he went to Tony Stark he called her "she is my sister"
It was back around May 2010

FRICKS SAKE...
Heh. Every time.
Is he? I didn't found it on his wikipedia, but I want it to be true to lols
Kitty can harden my penis, if you know what I mean
Damn I forgot about how Bendis had Kitty frick his self-insert
I have never been more attracted to Kitty than when she was wearing that costume with the mask that covers the top half of her face. I'm not sure why but it instantly activated my neurons when I saw it. Too bad no one else draws her with that outfit on.
I'm sure he tried to throw ideas at the wall and when he realized all of them were too much shit to work with he killed him and tried a fresh new start with Miles
He couldn't. Ultimatum was initially gonna be the reboot button though.
>just so Bendis can do a pornhub step sister plot
A what?
I thought USM ended after 133 issues because Bagley took that DC contract. He was on JLA with Robinson.
>my step-spider-sister
>gone clone saga'd
>gone sexual
the teen hero homestay arc was fun, i don't care what you people say
