I'm not that enthralled with the whole "Rebirth" thing. It is better than "The New 52" but really is not great yet.
On my way to Spiderman Homecoming.

I really liked Homecoming. But once again I really like when secret identities were, oh I don't know, SECRET.

While we're at it,I still have a copy of that 1960s catalog, and wonder if anyone else does or at least remembers that catalog. |

On a sad note Joan Lee died two days ago. Stan always said she was his rock.
They were married for 69 years!! In fact she was the one who encouraged him to write the story HE wanted to write. He wrote Amazing Fantasy 15 and the rest is history. He was on the verge of quitting comics. Good thing for all of us she was there.

On a happy note, DC can catch up with Marvel by supplying Marvel superheroes with marijuana.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Has no one mentioned Jim Steranko in this thread yet?

What about him Tommy? I love the guy because aside from being a fine creator of comic books the man was also legitimately an escape artist.

I just thought it odd that after all this time a bunch of magicians of all people, talking on this subject had not yet mentioned Jim Steranko.

Spider-man homecoming.... Another winner for Marvel.
Aunt May's last line in the film may or may not have been designed to get a laugh, but it got a big one in that theater. I thought the line was very appropriate for the situation and not all that funny. My daughter and the rest of the audience did not agree with me.

I guess I'm in the minority but I was a bit disappointed by Spider-man. Maybe it's because they want to show him grow as a super hero but Spider-man was truly the most incompetent super hero I've ever seen portrayed in the Marvel universe. He caused so much unnecessary damage to everything around him, was almost completely inept at catching any villains, and gave away his secret identity 3 times in one movie. Also, if this is supposed to be immediately after Captain America Civil War with Tony Stark as the big policeman of the Sokovia accords, why does he allow Spider-man to run around fighting crime without getting approval from the appropriate govt agency every time he decides to suit up?

It is his "origin" in a way. They have regressed him since he came back to Sony obviously.
At his origin Spidey was pretty inept. But I never thought of the "overall" in the world issues you mentioned. Makes sense. That is the problem with one universe I guess.

The other day I went to my physician for my annual checkup. As soon as I entered, the first thing I noticed was that the Receptionist's desk had a figurine of Baby Groot.
