I always see this joke (and as an explanation for why superheroes and supervillains don't need masks), but I have this counterargument... Internet and Background Checks!

[@michaelmcnulty5616]

Fun fact: Spidey wasn't originally supposed to have teamed-up with Black Widow and Silver Sable in this story. He was originally going to team-up with Flash Thompson/Agent Venom and Black Cat, as confirmed by double-page preview in one of the ASM issues and, later, by Slott himself. This didn't happen because Agent Venom was deep into another storyline and Mark Waid wanted to have Black Cat be a potential love interest/foil for Daredevil, if I remember correctly. This also implies that Black Cat, not Silver Sable, was the one who would've "died" in this story, too.

[@hobbes6392]

That does make more sense given the era but I’m also very happy that didn’t happen

This and Spider-Island were actually two of the first stories I read after seriously getting into comics back in early middle school and I used to reread them all the time in class. It’s been such a trip seeing my favorite comic content creators go over them.

"Wonderman sucks" - isn't that kinda the point? He was mainly created to die and be a motivation for Vision and Scarlett Witch to go on their respective arcs of the time.

[@infernaldisdain8051]

Well Vision wouldn’t exist without Wonderman seeing as he was patterned after him. Also Wonderman is cool okay… I personally don’t like Pacifist him though.

[@MrZsasz25]

Hi Sal. Just wondering: You seem to be on good terms with the "Mr. Sunday Movies"-guys (I noticed that you substituted as the host of their show once or twice). So: Have you ever considered doing a crossover with them? There perfect book for you to talk about with them (considering that they are Australians), in my opinion, would be: "Superman. They saved Luthor's Brain!". The story of Lex Luthor faking his death and coming back in a clone body (in which he has transferred his brain), with a lavish mane of red hair, pretending to be his own illegitimate Australian son.

[@endlessvoid7952]

Yes! Mr Sunday Movies / Weekly Planet crossover would be amazing. My two favorite YT channels for this comic content and such

Between slot writing amazing Spider-Man for 10 years and Spencer taking over amazing Spider-Man afterwards…there hasn’t really been a solid Spider-Man run in a while

[@TevyaSmolka]

I remember Spider-Man ends of earth it was a interesting epic Spider-Man story with Peter Parker Spider-Man teaming up with the avengers to stop doc ock and his sinister Six from destroying the entire earth. However besides that cool idea everything else in this story it’s fine and should’ve been the end of dan slott run on Spider-Man, unfortunately though as we learned that wasn’t the case and he kept going and going until he wear out his welcome and really needed to leave this book ASAP, not stay on the book for 10 years and do jack and shit.

IMO while this is far from his worst Spider-Man stories (Superior Spider-Man says hi), it does kinda showcase why Slott's run on the book was so lackluster. He was so focused on making every story "the biggest thing ever", with "things you have never seen in Spider-Man before", which "push Peter Parker to his limits", that he forgot to make them actually compelling narratives. Most of his run is made out of pure spectacle and not much else.
