There has been nearly THREE DOZEN articles from comic sites condemning Spider-Man's One More Day in 2025 alone (I'll archive them all after December). So long as they keep calling it out, I'll keep sharing.

While I might run a Spider-Man community, Nova is my favorite Marvel character.
And while one issue is too early to judge a full story, I’ll honestly say Nova: Centurion #1 gave me everything I love about the character.
“It is critical you pay attention at this time.”

I just learned that the first issue of The Amazing Spider-Man: Torn debuted at #15 out of the top 200 in sales (just 6 spots behind the main ASM line) and at #14 in sales (just 3 spots behind ASM). And issue 2 is even better. Still time for new readers to jump on board.

My little mini Spider-Man rant of the day; I am bored to tears by the concept of “interchangeable love interests” and the idea that committed relationships lack drama. A reason MJ stands apart is she DID fight with Peter, but it went somewhere. It mattered and challenged them. 1/5

I received my issue a day early. I REALLY enjoyed it. It's got some surprising subversions of what you might expect, backed up by amazing art, some very strong character moments, great twists, and a genuinely painful wait until December.
Yep, this comic still ROCKS.

I’m more optimistic than most about Ultimate Spider-Man’s future.
However, I’d like to present this journey in 4 Parts. I can only laugh.

Welcome back, old friends.
Spider-Man ‘94 may bill itself as a continuation of the show, but it’s got classic Spider-Man comics blood flowing in it as well. It’s a mix of the familiar and fresh, expected and surprising.
So far, I’m enjoying that cocktail.

I’ll pound the pro-marriage drum for 616 Spider-Man comics any day, and take any chance to boost articles and comic professionals advocating for its return.
We’re 18 years in, and fans are LOUDER than ever to fix “One More Day”. It’s heartwarming to see.

What I love about Spider-Man and Mary Jane.
Real love isn’t easy. It’s hard. It’s painful. It’s messy. It would be easier to quit and walk away. Simpler to harden your heart and deny your soul.
But then they’d only be half-alive. No matter what, they’ll make it work. Eventually.
