I never realized Raimi's potential Spider-Man 4 ever even made it to script stage. Or would this be like a "what if?"

Raimi walked off the project as soon as Sony started mandating a few things be added to the script...like Peter actually cheating on Mary Jane and abandoning his children to be with the Vulture's daughter. Elements of the original treatment (Peter ending up divorced and an established female character being related to an enemy) were used in Spider-Verse and Homecoming.

Marvel just released a 3 in the same style...so sadly it seems this was an unfounded rumor...

*sigh*

Damn. I'll take anything Sam Raimi - Spider-Man related at this point.

I understand now how the older generation felt about Christopher Reeve's Superman films. Sam Raimi's Spider-Man is my own personal golden age of superhero...well, anything. Everything about those films, from the direction to the personal memories they come with are profoundly important to me.

Oh phooie, doesn't explain what Alex Ross was doing with that #Spiderman4 hastag and Raimi era artwork though

Same here. Along with Justice League it got be into super hero comics beyond TMNT Adventures.

Oh never mind, it's just a limited series relaunch of SPIDER-MAN, written by JJ Abrams and his son

Marvel's Pull List video has more on the JJ Abrams Spider-Man book



Details from the issue

Take a cue from Life Story with Benjy? Does he have a twin sister Claire? Slightly off topic, but is Claire a legacy name like Ben is?

Too bad the masses got hyped up for the wrong reason bring me Malkovich/ Vulture and his daughter The Vultress could not see the light of day. What I appreciated was the comic book accuracy of the characters right down to the proper hair color. Vulturess would have been a break from that trend and its first divergence as far as actual characters. The backgrounds were changed like making Sandman a father with a sick daughter or giving Otto a wife. There were also the cliche's like Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane always being a damsel in distress and the villain always finding out who Peter was and having a personal connection. Well, actually that continues to this day, were Rhino and "Shocker" the only ones without a tie of any kind and knowing Peter is Spider-Man?

No, Benjy's an only child here.

Wow, stumbled on this months after the fact. I remember all the hype about it and speculation before this series launched. Hang out on a comic book forum and this series is not very popular there with the most vocal due to the bait-and-switches. Course, the switch that it was about a widowed Spider-Man's kid was the deal breaker for me on deciding not to try it.

I'm still giving it a go, but I agree that it's kind of lost momentum a bit, and the delays aren't helping.
