Damnit.
 
The Hulk will just kill you, likely instantly. Spiderman and Reed Richards will make you wish you were dead.

They were talking about whom they would be most scared of and if you see this hulk just looking at you then.. well make sure you are at least wearing brown pants.
 

Facing the Hulk would be like acepting my destiny, close my eyes and wait for the inevitable.

Facing Reed Richards would be scary as I don't know what is going to happen to me, my alternate versions and posible futures. The man can truly mess you up.

Facing quiet Spider-Man would be like trying to run for your life from a predator who is faster than you, stronger than you, smarter than you, and wants to make sure you never intend to lift a finger against him again in the history of ever.
 
Is "Superior Spider-Man" worth reading? it sounds kinda cool

It's trash. Laughably bad.

You find out Kingpin has a body double who stays in the basement playing video games and eating fried chicken all day long.

Shit, I'd rather read Crapdell's Teen Titans over that.

So what are the must read spiderman runs before my free month of marvel unlimited runs out?

Kraven's Last Hunt
Death of Jean DeWolff
Carrion Saga
Original Hobgoblin Saga
How Green Was My Goblin
 
So you are just cool and calm? The very fact that you would face Hulk (who gets serious) is the scariest thing I could imagine.

As a Supermonkey, I'm ready to face my death everyday. And if I'm stupid enough to piss off the Hulk, I think I deserve what is coming my way.
 
I usually have a problem when characters(be them comic book characters, video game characters, yadda yadda) become too strong. Spider-Man isn't that bad. I think I'm more peeved at how blown up to ridiculous proportions Marvel's made Magneto over the years. When a writer thinks it is a good idea blow a character up to be capable of doing anything and everything with their powers, either you dial it back or just give up on being a writer. Overpowered characters are my least favorite types of fictional characters.

Like, if you wanted to showcase how trash you think that run is, Kingpin having a fat body double is hardly the example to use.
Comic Magneto is amazeballs
Street justice Magneto is terrifying
 
Post-AvX Magneto was pared back wasn't he?
A bit but it turned out Dark Beast was pulling a Cassandra Nova and using nano-sentinels, which made Cyclops, Emma, and Magneto's powers all wonky. Magik kinda? Her situation was a bit unique.

Dark Beast died and then everyone was back to full-power. Or close to it.

A fat body double who plays video games all day long.....

I'm not discounting the fact that he can have a body double, but at least that dude should be sort of bad ass right?

If you think that's so cool just imagine if they put that shit in Daredevil season 3....I'm sure people will love it.
 
Since the pros are in here this should be the right place to ask. I remember seeing a panel posted here that looked like it was set in some end of world scenario in the future where there was only one hero and/or mutant left still fighting. I think I remember that person being Spider-Man I could be wrong though. Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about and where it is from?

Sounds like Spider-Man:Reign to me.
 
It's plainly explained at the beginning of Superior Spider-man. Peter ALWAYS holds back. Even when fighting dudes that are equal to him, because if he were to punch someone with all his strength, their heads would explode.

Otto basically did that to Scorpion there, IIRC.


How about the Japanese Spider-man, who has the most powerful Giant Robot ever?

Yep, pretty much this.

Reed richards and spider man are the 2 that would make me shit my pants

Get torn apart slowly while he shits on you non stop about personal shit, ot get your molecules scattered across the known universe while somehow still being conscious and feeling pain. At least with the latter ill still have my self respect
 
Because the movies let him appear weak as shit.

You mean the movies where he stops a train with his webbing without getting his arms torn off? Or catches a cable car full of falling children with one hand? Or stops an entire wall of a building from falling on Mary Jane? Those movies?

A) I didn't say I thought it was so cool. Didn't even say I thought it was great. Just said it wasn't so bad or ridiculous to use as your prime example for your platform of Superior being trash.

B) We literally never see THAT body double in action. He's a body double, which means he pretty much exists as a tool. That tool was "get killed and left behind so people think Kingpin's dead." They may as well have outright stated that. Do you require silver-age tier dialogue?
 
He got so strong when the writing got so bad. Is the problem with comics, someone thinks it's cool for a character to lift a train or something, and just glosses over the fact he can never struggle to lift anything smaller again. Then next time a train is too small, so gotta go bigger, and gloss over lifting a train will never be a struggle again. Stuff I read growing up he had the strength of a few men combined, lifting a car would be about the limit.
