I seem to have made Slott incredibly paranoid, as he spent last night on CBR accusing somebody of being me just because that person had a defensive attitude similar to mine (turns out the person was someone I've interacted with in the past over on the Spidey Crawlspace forums, "Big Al", who runs several Spidey tumblr blogs)

Why can't you guys just agree to disagree?

Where's the fun in that? I find this freaking hilarious. Keep it up, Zarius!

Because "Internet" and "Nerds."

I don't think I've read any of this guy's work, ever, but he sounds incredibly paranoid and defensive and thin-skinned. People like that generally can't just "agree to disagree", especially when they're looking for a pat on the head in approval for their work. Which he clearly is, or he wouldn't spend so much time on a message board getting in pissing contests with his fans/customers.

I mean, if he's going to automatically assume that everyone who criticizes him is the same One Guy, as if that One Guy is the only one who could *possibly* find any fault with his work, then that betrays some serious personal insecurities. "You have to be X, because everyone else likes me!" Yeah, that's wacky.

This is why I mostly avoid fan forums and especially stuff about comic books. Like, if I ever interacted with Dan Jurgens and somehow it turned out he was a jerk (in truth, by all accounts he's a real classy fella), that would just ruin so many things, for me.

I second that. Poor Jason Latour (writer of Spider-Gwen) tried kissing up to Tumblr recently. He sort of got a "pet the dog" reaction, and they went right back to criticizing his work, all while saying "you're really a nice guy, BUUUUUUUT...."

[Leo656]

Kinda why a lot of wrestlers don't have FB, or those that do only go on to share tweets or do promotional stuff. When I was green, I'd be like, "You don't use FB to interact with your fans?" And literally everyone was like, "Why would I ever do that? That's horrible, that's like the last thing I'd ever want to do, is talk about work with people who don't know anything about it, but think they know everything about it."

Fast forward a few years, and Point F*cking Taken is my answer to that. That thick-ass barrier between fans and creators/performers in any field of entertainment is there for some pretty good reasons.

[CyberCubed]

Why is Dan Slott focusing one a specific forum anyway? I mean you could literally type, "Dan Slott sucks" or "Dan slott is a terrible writer" on google and see what comes up on dozens of different forums from different people. Why is he so focused on one specific point of the internet?

I mean every comic book writer has been criticized by someone somewhere, even the critically acclaimed people.

[Leo656]

Apparently, I share my name (or very similar ones) with several porn stars, so yeah, don't Google me.

I kind of like that. I've Googled myself a couple times for fun, same as anyone. Always the same result. "Ahhhh, nobody cares. GOOD."

He occasionally posts on Comic Vine sometimes, and he was a member of Crawlspace for a few months into the beginning of his tenure on Spidey before he requested his account be deactivated. CBR's just the easiest place to frequent because they're already tied closely with the creative forces in the industry and it means easier access for things like interviews and other insights.

Don't feel bad, Leo. When I Googled myself a few years back, I got- a duck preserve in Victoria, Australia.... So, there- it's out now. I am officially, a duck sanctuary.

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: RENEW YOUR VOWS #3

DAN SLOTT (w) • ADAM KUBERT (a/C)

VARIANT cover by Sara PICHELLI

• The most controversial Spider-Man story of the year continues!

•There are some lines Spider-Man won’t cross. Right?

32 PGS./Rated T …$3.99

[Shred Head]

The black costume the whole crossing lines because he's angry thing. We had this before with the story that came before OMD. Why do I get a feeling this is going to be one of those anti-marriage propaganda books. I'll buy it but I am really losing faith in this thing being what I want it to be.

A lot of information coming out from this on Spider-Verse and Renew Your Vows.

From what I read of Renew Your Vows, it appears Peter and MJ are trying to keep Peter's double-life a secret from their daughter (makes sense, they did the same when Mayday was younger, with Mayday finding out via eavesdropping when she was much older). Also the daughter will "not be what you expect", and Mary Jane will even instruct Peter to don the black costume she's often been depicted as being afraid of.

Zarius, does Crawlspace have a good community? I'm thinking of joining.

Spider-Mandate interview with Nick Lowe

http://www.comicbookresources.com/ar...of-secret-wars

In "Renew Your Vows" Dan is, in a way, taking where "Brand New Day" started and taking it down a different road. But a lot of the stuff he's been doing in "Amazing Spider-Man" resonates in there and it's going to have a lot of lasting effects in the future of Spider-Man.

On Silk, Spider-Woman, and Spider-Gwen

Well "Secret Wars" is everything, no matter what. Everything ends with "Secret Wars." We haven't quite revealed the full extent of how all these things work, but nothing is safe, no one is safe. With "Spider-Gwen" it's more than just a break. "Silk" and "Spider-Woman" you're going to wait and see how they interact, but we're just getting started with "Secret Wars." You've only solicited the first two months of it. At Marvel we like to let these books shape what we do rather than get to crazily lockstep into everything happens at once, this one month everything changes! We haven't played all of our cards yet -- and this is going to sound ominous and it probably should -- but nobody is safe. It doesn't matter what's going on. Our biggest mantra is, and this is true, "Everything ends with 'Secret Wars.'" When we come out the other side it's going to be different. Everything is going to be different. I wish I could tell you more, but that's all I feel comfortable saying right now.
