This is the cover of the upcoming Previews magazine. What do you think? Is Morlun coming back? Spidey just died in 2005 during the “Other” storyline. Remember this panel on the right?

You are my hero! I have been hunting virtually all week for something like this to use in a short article I will be writing.
Ahh, it’s nothing to do with ASM. It’s another Ultimate Comics storyline.

What’s with all of these comic characters dying???
Phony death
Death of Kaine
Blah blah of editors?
Retcon?
From Steerpike:
“Do you remember a time when Marvel wrote stories that people liked instead of selling stories based on shock value? Pepperidge Farm remembers.”
I haven’t seen that particular advert, but I like and appreciate the sentiment.
Looking at the last couple of years of Spidey (and, comics in general), I’ve felt that a really good existential nightmare piece might be written based on the convulutions of storytelling we’ve seen. It might be titled “Some Great Reward,” and it would chroinicle the sisyphean struggles of a character who thinks maybe, maybe he is getting somewhere, only to have the scene be changed.
But, alas, someone beat me to it: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/218915/823695
Flinx79, you are correct. He died in Spider-Man #17 and fought Thanos in the afterlife!
I am so full of I don’t give a s***, it’s coming out of my ears…
There are other kinds of death, not just the physical…
He dies in Infinity Gauntlet.
Wasn’t Spidey killed in that Ann Nocenti issue of adjectiveless Spider-Man? Anyway, this is a stunt, and will no doubt get press coverage. Assuming this in AMS and not a “the End” book, I can see this as something engineered by Peter to get his alter ego out of a fix.
Again?
I read that OTher thing and I thought it was the worst death I’d ever seen in a book.He wasn’t killed by Doc Ock or Electro and he died for the magical story that really didn’t seem all that great to begin with. It was the begginning of the end of the book/character in my opinion. Everything introduced after that. Like new costume and new powers and new jobs and that great news making unmasking that they seemed totally incapable and unwanting to do anything with. If they had said ‘the Death of Spider-man’ 10 years ago atleast it woudl have had some credibility to it. Basically, Spider-man still seems nothing like Spider-man to me in the books.
Do you remember a time when Marvel wrote stories that people liked instead of selling stories based on shock value? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Do you remember a time when chocolate chips came fresh from the oven? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Do you remember a time when women couldn’t vote and certain people weren’t allowed on golf courses? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
I second Sir Jig-a-Lot’s comment.
Why care at all? Spider-man is still Marvel’s flagship, and the worst thing that can happen is that it is just another story that promise everything, and delivers nothing. Besides, isn’t ‘Big Time’ supposed to start now? It would be a poor start to kill the main character so soon, wouldn’t it?
Please don’t let it be like the Death of Ms. Marvel…
People might be calling this a “publicity stunt”, but look at the reaction to 4 mere words… of course it’s a stunt… all comic publicity comes in the form of “shocking news & changes”… I’m just hoping for a good story…
I’m thinking maybe this has to do with Ultimate Spider-man…..
Sales must be dropping hard on ASM for them to use a lame marketing gimmick such as this. Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is another way to ”fix” the mess started in OMD & continued in OMIT.
I call b.s. Morlun got his throat torn out in the Other but he came back in Black Panther. The fight is possible but Spidey dyin again? Who is he now? Superman? Marvel must be running out of original ideas or something.
If you count Kravens last hunt then this would actually be the third time spideys died.
Could it be that they’re revisiting The Other and how it changed for the BND continuity?
If they really kill off Peter, than I’m done with Spidey. I stayed after OMD, Shed, OMIT, but this I cant forgive. Even though in comics death is never certain.
Don’t believe it. At all.
