Seriously I think that's the best way to describe it. Only Shakespeare could come up with such a hilarious clusterfuck of happenstances, affairs, murders, and going-on. You heard it here first folks. Sins Past is Shakespeare.

Tobey returning is what caused the Brothers to fight

...does this mean we get to use Batman in a movie to save everything? Cause if so then its worth it...

 

[Voror]

Fuck.

I'd gotten Sin's Past out of my head.

Fuck.

I can't help but wonder at what the reaction would be if they somehow put this plotline in the Spider-Gwen series.

Marvel finding creative ways to take massive dumps in Spider-man's mouth as Shakespearean art. That's actually amazing when put like that.

 

[Green Mamba]

Sin's Past was a terrible idea even without the Norman Osborn garbage.

Maybe Aunt May will get rimmed by Scorpion whilst the excavated corpse of Uncle Ben is used in a puppet show by Carnage.

Well alright that would be something.

I honestly think JMS' original idea, that Peter knocked up Gwen, would have been even worse.

Just got unbanned.

Came by to say all hail the king. The one true Lord and Savior of the Marvel Universe.

Pretty much agree. I don't actually have a problem with Peter being a dad, but doing it in that manner would've been a bad idea I think.

Having sex with his girlfriend?

Sort of related question...

Is that Spider-Gwen comic series starting up this month, is that in 616 or her home reality?

You need to add "How about ERIC BANA Hulk?" when Ruffalo makes his suggestion

 

[Prompto]

So why exactly did Gwen Stacy have sex with Norman and cheat on Peter?

 

[Voror]

Having sex with his girlfriend?

Poor choice of words. Having it come out years later that Peter had these kids who were like 10 years old or however old they were out of nowhere. Even weirder if it was always the plan to have them be aged up like they were in the actual story.

 

[Neoxon]

This is honestly the best way to explain it.

Magnetism? What kind of explanation is that?

 

[Neoxon]

Magnetism? What kind of explanation is that?

She was turned on by Norman.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Magnetism? What kind of explanation is that?

She was just attracted to his charms, and was basically weak willed.

 

[The Silver]

Norman is Magneto

 

[guek]

Yeah it's one of the worst cases of character assassination in comics.

 

[Prompto]

This is honestly the best way to explain it.

I have no words...

 

[EightBitNate]

What a strange way to justify cheating

"He turned me on"

lol

 

[munchie64]

Magnetism? What kind of explanation is that?

Norman Osborne has been Magneto the whole time.

 

[Spinluck]

So why did they destroy Gwen's character?

Straczynski later stated he originally wanted to make Peter Parker the father of Gwen's kids but the editors vetoed the idea. They felt it would age Peter Parker too much if he had two adult children. The whole creative and editorial team then decided Norman Osborn would be the father.

 

[Spinluck]

O'Brien and Lerman would downgrades from Garfield, but if I had to chose I'd go O'Brien and it's not even close.

Sucks we are still getting a young HS type.

 

[shira]

It's better than a 30 year old trying to play the young HS type

why even have the idea of Gwen kids who've been artificaially aged in the first place

goddamn its so fucking stupid, I can't.

This is the usual problems when you have franchises, where the people arent allowed to age the natural way.
Since the 1960s, about 10-15 real time years have passed in the Marvel Universe. Gwens kids should be 10 at most.

Beyond that, Gwen having twins and never telling Peter about it is absurd no matter who the father was.

Remember, that this wasn't destroying the character of Spider-Man, it was totally his marriage to Mary Jane.

Now we can truly get amazing stories where Spider-Man bangs out Silk, his waifu of the week.

It's only a matter of time before Peter finds out Aunt May wanted a divorce and had Uncle Ben killed... after he walks in on her and Mary Jane in bed...both are pregnant with triplets... from... T-Rex Venom.

Then Peter screams "TTTREEEXXXVENNOOMMM!!!".

Give me a job Marvel.
