What is up with children in comic books today? Or, rather, this week? Picking up a few comics and reading them, we have Miles Morales hitting his icon and
If a movie doesn't conspicuously reek, but doesn't absolutely rock either, a writer has to work hard to make his review interesting.
I'm going to have to work pretty hard on this one.
A lot of the early gossip I heard on The Amazing Spider-man, from colleagues who had attended the first screenings, suggested it was a[...]
He's in the wrong place (or perhaps the right place) at the wrong time when Parker's invention malfunctions and zaps him with great power." You decide.

Marvel has told Fox News that Spider-Man will be getting a sidekick, powered up student-on-a-field-trip, Alpha.
Fourteen Thoughts About Thirteen Comics:[...]
Ultron War? Reckoning War? Whatever it is, folks, with Wolverine, Thor, Cap and Iron Man, it's going to be War War!

But it's much harder to do on live television.

Explaining why it's in the Sunday Spider-Man panel I presumed it was the last big Marvel panel of the weekend But what if, as he suggests, it's The Reckoning War?
For the last seven years or so, in almost every Marvel comic book he can, Dan Slott has been dropping references to something in the future[...]
Well, clearly Marvel was getting testy about the news not reaching Bleeding Cool yet.
And for some reason (probably because it crosses over) they'll be announcing it on the Spider-Man panel at 12.30PM on the Sunday, when all the movie and TV people have gone home.
We're starting to hear lots of rumours about what will[...]
But this is the Spider-Man newspaper strip that inspired its own technological innovation.
On August 9th, 1977, The Kingpin captured Spider-Man, as he was wont to do, but strapped on his wrist an "electronic radar device" so that the Big Bad could monitor Spider-Man at any time, wherever he was.
It was a strip read by one[...]
Which titles did he read? Did he have anything to sell or trade? Through this technique — and after convincing my mother to drive me all the way across town to close the deal — I managed to score a copy of The Amazing Spider-Man #4 (featuring the first appearance of the Sandman).

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN ANNUAL #39 introduces a scenario where Spidey has been erased from existence There's no real explanation why the world is now a better place for it and nothing to balance Peter's understandable anguish over this revelation other than a hug from his father figure And maybe that's just enough sometimes And look how[...]
Here's a batch of San Diego Comic Con exclusive items that can be pre-ordered by retailers to pick up at the show, or shipped afterwards, though the latter option may be moot if they run out, and priority will be given to retailers who are also exhibiting at the show.

But an interview conducted by CBR with Dan Slott at the show has only just gone online.

In ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDER-MAN #10, Miles gets into a fight with his Uncle, the shady Prowler Well, not "a" fight, THE fight, one of the coolest, and most intense duels we've seen this past year And it's the bloody PROWLER, one of the lamest, gaudiest[...]
This is how the Spider-Man Custoimised Retailer Variant will look… possibly without the big Marvel watermark over it This is, naturally, for Third Eye Comics.

Disney XD has premiered it's new Marvel animation block of 2012, yet fans are not happy about the Ultimate Spider-Man TV series! Even though this cartoon is written by Brian Michael Bendis and Paul Dini plus the trailer got a ton of views, the show seems to be a different story[...]
Two indoor floors and a larger outdoor festival area made up the main convention area, with outdoor tent pavilions for the panels and art workshops and a discreetly hidden beer garden (Dubai is officially a dry city in deference to Islamic traditions but alcohol is widely available through hotel bars).

But actually, I'm even more pleased to see that they're tying a major event to Spider-Man's 50th Anniversary Because as we noted here last month, Hulk's 50th seems to have been largely forgotten, after a pretty big deal was made of the FF's 50th last year.
And after that? Let's see… it'll then soon be time[...]

Peter Parker from Amazing Spider-Man and Miles Morales from Ultimate Spider-Man.
The paper quotes Brian saying what I'm sure is tongue in cheek, but I can feel already will be controversial "For the 50th anniversary of Spider-Man, what everyone was looking for was a Spider-Man story that mattered Well, here you go."
The paper however seems more[...]
It was a rather fun scene from the most recent issue of Amazing Spider-Man And that's saying something, considering how Dan Slott and Stefano Caselli have been killing it on this comic.
