After experiencing the thrilling multiverse journey and mind-blowing ending of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, one fan felt compelled to delve into the world of Spider-Man comics. However, their enthusiasm was met with cautionary advice from those who have been keeping up with the ongoing comic book series. Despite the film's success reigniting interest in the beloved hero, some fans have warned against reading the current Spider-Man comics.
Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse Fixes The Comics' Issue
The long-standing dispute regarding Zeb Wells' The Amazing Spider-Man run has been attributed to Marvel editorial's objection to Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson's romantic relationship. The recent development in this saga is the introduction of Paul, MJ's new boyfriend, who has become the primary target of the Spider-Man fanbase. Additionally, the Spider-Man comics have faced criticism for the controversial killing of Ms. Marvel.
In Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Peter B. Parker, portrayed by Jake Johnson, embarks on a journey to help Miles Morales, played by Shameik Moore, become the new Spider-Man of his world, while also learning to overcome personal struggles. By the film's conclusion, Peter gains a newfound understanding of what he must do to turn his life around, with his relationship with Mary Jane being a top priority.
In Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Peter B. Parker and MJ's relationship takes center stage as they are shown living happily with their daughter, Mayday. Despite MJ's limited screen time, her presence serves as a significant reminder of the couple's enduring love, which has been lacking in recent Spider-Man comic storylines. Fans are advised to avoid the comics if they want to preserve the heartwarming father-daughter dynamic portrayed in the film. However, there is hope for fans of the couple, as they are set to appear in next year's Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, with Peter and Mayday already confirmed for the upcoming movie.
