For some reason I’ve just never liked Spider-Man. He comes off as a whiney, ignorant child that never seems to grow up or mature despite everything he goes through. I love a good coming of age story, but he just never seems to become an adult.

  • I kinda hate all spin-off superheroes. Supergirl, Superdog, Batgirl; although it’s mostly _Girl versions of _Man. You never see WonderMan. WhitePanther wouldn’t get much love. It just feels like wringing the ol’ franchise of every last drop of blood.

    Sometimes it bites me. SpiderVerse is supposed to be good, but it breaks my spin-off Rule.

      You never see WonderMan.

      Apparently not a “spin-off”, though it looks like there was some friction over the relationship to Wonder Woman.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonder_Man

      Marvel Comics’ then-publisher Stan Lee said in 1978, “You know, years ago we brought out Wonder Man, and [DC Comics] sued us because they had Wonder Woman, and… I said okay, I’ll discontinue Wonder Man. And all of a sudden they’ve got Power Girl [after Marvel had introduced Power Man]. Oh, boy. How unfair.”[7]

      Yeah, spin offs aren’t my thing, except for Frasier.
