Where the video ends isn't the current status quo. You need to watch his videos "The Rise and Fall of Superior Spider-Man" and the video "How Venom Became a Hero". And also the videos "The Rise and Fall of Ultimate Spider-Man" and "The Spider-Man Who Deserved Better".

39:08: Ben is a really underatted character, Alex made a video about him called "The Spider-Man who deserved better" Also this video got a sequel, the Superior Spider-Man video Alex also made a video on the Ultimate Universe Spider-Man (Miles's universe)

I have to tell you, man. As a long time comic reader and someone that enjoys the various forms of media adaptations, watching your journey deeper into this world has been such a fun and wholesome experience. Your enthusiasm really shows through the screen and the things you pick up on and questions you ask show your genuine interest. I'll keep watching your reactions to this stuff, the movies, tv series, etc as long as you keep posting the videos. I'm sure a lot of us here feel the same way. Great stuff

The grace of Spider-Man is that although he is a "failure" and makes mistakes, he always recovers and more importantly, he recognizes his mistakes, learns from them and improves so as not to make them again, unfortunately the current writer did not understand that and just stayed with the part about "he's a failure like all of us" and is making Peter make the same mistakes he did as a teenager, only now Peter is 30 years old

WatchMojo videos are typically low effort, inaccurate, or forget some important thing that obviously belongs in one of their list videos.

Kind of the issue with comics is main characters like this don't stay dead for long. You might have them killed and have a new character fill in but they always come back so these deaths don't really hit very hard when it's happening constantly.

36:44 It's funny you said that considering that the MJ from the games is extremely controversial with comic book fans and not that well liked. The same goes for the MJ in the Tobey Maguire movies who is wildly hated. Neither the movies nor the games have come even close to getting MJ right.

I'm sure other people have already told you, but this video is considered Part 1 of a two-parter. The second part to this video is "The Rise and Fall of Superior Spider-Man", which picks up right where this video ended. Also, the video "How Venom Became a Hero" and "The Spider-Man Who Deserved Better" are fantastic watches as well 👍

Spider-Man's timeline split in the 1970s when Spanish versions printed in Mexico disagreed with a Marvel decision. Gwen Stacy was more popular in Mexico than she was in the US. When she died in the main continuity, the Mexican publisher said screw that, and just created their own Spider-Man stories with Gwen still alive. There is a cover where Peter and Gwen get married, but I don't know if it actually took place in the story. I'd like to see you do this type of video for Fantastic Four and Superman as well.

I HIGHLY recommend B-Mask’s video about the Fantastic Four. It’s probably my favorite video essay on KZfaq.

Spiderman has had a long rich history and is perhaps one of the most iconic and well known superheroes in media. Spiderman truly is the definition of a relatable hero and Marvels greatest character and one of the best superheroes. Sadly Spiderman is a character that truly cannot escape tragedy that it's practically become a multiversal canon event or at least cannot escape writers that love to make him suffer

Okay, but all of Alex's video documentaries on Spider-Man are a must watch.

46:14 No no. It did not originally come from the comics. The movie came out before Peter had that ability in the comics (and thankfully it didn't last anyway). The only reason they did that in the comments was so audiences would be more familiar with the movies but thankfully they realised that it was completely unnecessary and did away with the organic webs.

I've been looking forward to this since you mentioned that Spider-Man was your favourite in the Batman video.

Hey I recommend B- mask we are the fantastic four video, it's really well made and will definitely make you a fantastic four fan

Flash Tompson is in most of the films

This video was fun and it was nice to see after the Batman one too. Im like you, I dont read comics but I watch shows based on them and I enjoy learning about lore and characters. Really enjoying your reactions. If you want some more deep dives into characters like the different Robins or the six-armed Spiderman or Spiderman variants, Casually Comics has done some videos covering them.

Watchmojo is just the most cookie cutter, normie, bland and outright pedestrian channels you can find. You know they just got their info from some other pre-existing top 10 list somewhere and didn't bother to dig deeper.

The one with glasses is Olly Osnick, the Steel Spider, he was a fan of Spider-Man and Doc Ock.

Sadly Spider-Man is just Marvel's punching bag these days. Marvel despises Spider-Man for some reason.

Kravens last hunt is my favorite spiderman comic

One little nitpick I have, and this may sound like gate-keeping but I promise it isn’t, is people who react to these saying they’re about to “get into comics.” And it’s like, no, you’re getting into a video about comics. Like if I was going to get into Star Wars I wouldn’t just watch a review of A New Hope and say “Yep, just got into Star Wars.” It feels a bit disrespectful to the medium if you think you can just have it summarized to you and feel like you know all about it after. And I’m not trying to be a dick, I realize that comics aren’t for everyone, and that’s fine, but there’s a pretty long history of people thinking that comics matter so little that they can just read the Wiki or watch a summary and feel like they’ve actually read it. People view comics as nothing more than the storyboards for movies (mediums of “true art.”) to use as the basis for their plots.

"they should touch on this more" I'm guessing he never saw any other spiderman movie than the toby maguire one

See now I need a Spectacular Spider-Man reaction Every Spider-Man fan has to watch it its a must watch

I was fortunate to get hold of most of the early comics in the late sixties. At one stage I had issues 2-40. Never No 1. Regrettably I unloaded them for what seemed like a good price about 1979. If I had kept them, even without No 1 I would be having a very comfortable retirement!. I remember the stories and villains so well. I had tons of DC comics too but these were far and away the best - the human side of Peter was so relatable.

45:16 Actually that has completely been left in the past and he has had a mechanical web shooters for years again (as he should always have and it should never be organic webs).

Your reaction to clone Gwen, followed by clone Peter dying lmaoo. Absolutely sent me. "That is some absolutely _nasty_ work" no kidding! I can only imagine what it would have been like waiting for the next issue.

28:54 I think the point people were making about that isn't that he's a chad. It's that they wanted him to sart off as a dorky lanklet, then become a total Don. Like in the comics early on, you see him as this stereotypical nerd.

46:01 organic webs were retroactively added after the Raimi comics to make 616 Peter closer to his movie version, the arc the video mentions was published in 2003-2005 around that time

never knew Spiderman had such crazy lore

If you want THE best adaptation of Spidey that’s both close to the comics and has a great unique flare, you gotta watch ‘The Spectacular Spider-Man’ show. It’s amazing! (But cancelled way too soon)

Spiderman/Peter Parker is a combo of Clark Kent + Jimmy Olsen + Shazam + Batman.

I recently learned there’s a version of him whose legal name is Peter Spiderman and he’s just a guy who has the strength and agility of a slightly out of shape spider. Pete Spideman also rocks cargo shorts, slippers, and a fanny pack

This is by far the most justifiable type of straight up reaction

"I love Spider-man, and I can't wait to see him replaced"... ...Whut???

Hello brother! I am a huge comic book Spider-Man fan and I have been for 40+ years! I love reading Spideys comics (except One more Day... we don't talk about that). The main reason I love Spider-Man is because of how relatable he is!

A really interesting Spider-Man Comic series is called Spider-Man: Life Story. Basically, it's what if Spider-Man never rebooted and stayed Spider-Man from the 70s to the modern day. It's actually pretty interesting. Someone actually made a video covering the whole series.

It’s Spider-Man his entire life is like a love oxogen

I think it's only fitting to continue this adventure by watching "The Bizarre World of japanese Spiderman" by Lumi's Web

There’s some good stuff after he revealed his identity. But the cons that happen after out way the pros by a lot.

Silver age comics are truly underrated masterpieces

There's a video by B-Mask called "We Are The Fantastic Four" it'll make you a fan of the Fantastic Four almost instantly. Please give it a watch when you can 🙏

Flash Thompson is in several of the films and cartoons.

I think its the other way around and the comics found an excuse for Peter to have organic webs for a while exactly because of the influence the Raimi movies had. 46:17 .Could be wrong though.

The new ultimate spiderman run by hickman has been great

you ever looked into the Ultimate-Spiderman comics? Not the hickman ones the Brian Micheal Bendis and Mark Bagley ones they are awesome and also where Miles Morales comes from.

U are the only one who interested in those kind of cool videos not like other people i like that U are the best youtuber and reactioner to bad that u are not The Flash to do something everywhere and everyday

If you like this video format, I HIGHLY recommend, "We are the fantastic four" by "B- Mask". It's very well produced and even has voice actors to go with the comic panels.

I have an idea for a suggestion if you want to learn more about the lizard, there us a video by godzilla mandoza "THE LIZARD - Marvel's Broken Character" it gives an in depth analysis of the character and explains his many highs and lows as marvel writers essentially throw what ever to a wall to make anything stick for the character,.

I hope you also react to The Insane History of Carnage by Lumi's Web as that's another solid lore recap.

17:16 Do you hear that sound too ? canon event...

You need to see some of the what if or different universe spider-man

Wait till he finds out about Ultimate Spider-Man's storyline

the game you mentioned with spider-man taking a picture of himself was marvel vs capcom three

The game you were talking about was marvel superheroes made by capcom

1:02:59 You gotta watch B-Mask's video on the Fantastic Four. The Fantastic Four are awesome, probably my favorite Marvel characters outside of Spider-Man. But they just have the single worst luck with adaptations, because they all suck. That video is the only exposure they're ever gotten that shows why they're so great, wish I didn't live in this timeline smh.

42:35 JMS is indeed a genius. I mean, he has messed up some things, but also created some of the best stuff around. Personally, I know him from Babylon 5 - one of if not the best sci-fi shows out there. It's an expasive saga with many intertwined storylines, compelling and amazingly acted characters and deep and grand worldbuilding. Plus, in that universe, every species across the galaxy has a sweedish meatballs equivalent, and that's an actual plot point

Imagine the Watcher just watching peter dying as Dr. Octavius and just shouting "Can anybody fucking help him??" even though he can't do anything lol

28:40 You're right and you should say it.

wow thats cool but what a shame that i wont survive to the day when he will learn and watch a bunch of cool and interesting videos about DC and other Superheroes stuff (especially DC universe) wellp goodluck to you buddy!

If you want an almost 2 hours video about Fantastic Four that's even better then this one then B-Mask has you covered.

4:10 Cough (Spectacular Spider-Man) Cough

If you want to learn about Fantastic Four, I’d recommend the video “We are the Fantastic Four” by B-Mask

American comics from Marvel and DC can be difficult to get into so "documentaries" like this one can be very helpful to new fans. If you like this may I recommend "We are the Fantastic Four" by B-Mask. It is basically this but higher production and Fantastic Four based.

Gwen did die in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. As for Peter’s growth as a character in movies, well Tom Holland’s Spidey has had the longest run out of all Spider-Man actors on the big screen. He’s the only one who was a real teenager when he was cast and now he’s an adult. Can’t wait for his next adventure.

He does try to mask the bias as best as he can (and imo does a good job), but you should know that in his first youtube vid Alex said that the writer Stalinkski is his uncle. Not saying he is unreliable, but I think it's important to know that listening to him talk about that era of Spider-Man, so much so that Alex knew he had to say it out the gate.

You should watch Spider-Man:The New Animated Series by MTV if I remember correctly, it's a semi-sequel to the Raimi films

Rap music?! What in the hemoglobin?

I just seen Patterz reaction to this. Shit was good

5:09 Marvel Nemisis?

My 2 favorite Marvel comic book characters are Wolverine and The Punisher. I love Anti-Heroes. Both Wolverine and The Punisher kill their enemies unlike characters like Spider-Man & Daredevil. Anti-Heroes are my favorite type of characters from Marvel. Here's my top 5 Marvel comic book characters 1. Wolverine 2. The Punisher 3. Deadpool 4. Ghost Rider 5. Blade

Watch an origin video on The Fantastic Four create by Comicstorian, Comics explained, or Variant Comics.

You should react to some fantastic four stuff they’re one of the best teams in marvel

I genuinely think you can start from Amazing Spider-Man #1 and just ride along from there until you're bored, just don't miss the Annual issues. Surprisingly, you can easily be introduced to the larger Marvel Universe solely from Spidey comics because of how frequently other characters make guest appearances, most notably the Fantastic Four, Doctor Strange, and Daredevil, who all become inseparable from Spider-Man's mythos at some point.

WatchMojo was content slop before youtube was popular

What I like is that Spider-man is the hero that iteracts with wider Marvel Universe the most. An Avenger, great friend of Fanatastic Four, can find relatability with the X-men and etc. Speaking of Fantastic Four and X-men, I do advise to watch the movies. And when X-men have only 3 bad movies, one of which sadl you cannot skip, Fantastic Four wasn't this lucky. The movie you said you watched can be a mess and boring, but it's sorta good movie that explores who these characters are and how they relate to each other. So just to familiarize with the team (which was actually the first superhero team that Stan Lee created), I do advise to watch the first movie from 2000s. As for F4 (short name for Fantastic Four) reboot that's most modern, is even worse than the older ones. And while it also focuses on how the team is created, it takes the origins of it from Ultimate series, which is quite different from canon one. Oh and just so ou'd know, Doctor Doom is initially the Fantastic Four villain and I don't like how people want to tear him out of that connection. Which is thankfully is only the wishes from people on internet. And coming back to the X-men, if you didnt watched the movies of them yet, I surely advise you to. Mostly because of Hugh jackamn as Wolverine and that current chronology of that franchise sorta end on both "Logan" and Deadpool movies with the third one going to be first X-men movie under Marvel Cinematic Universe and also the first 18+ movie in the same universe AND DIsney. So... your choice.

i think now you need to watch history of spiderman girlfrind and ultimate spiderman

Do you mean " and this is why j.j pays me the big bucks!"it's from spectacular Spider-Man

5:00 Marvel ultimate alliance?

I don't get why people are flabbergasted that a character who's been around for 60 years have so many iterations of said character. From the 60's,70's, 80's 90's and 2000's the way people dress,talk,worldviews, technology and interactions have change why is it so surprising thst different era's have different takes.we need to stop looking through the past with 2024 lenses and judging things in the past that doesn't have the framework that we're used to these days.

why is he so sweaty?

I recommend you check out our Batman court of owls 🦉 motion comic

If any of my past comments have earned me your trust, then since you said you know nothing about the Fantastic Four, PLZ watch "We are the Fantastic Four" by B-Mask

You should watch justice league gods and monsters

You should react to Spider-Man into the spider verse

It’s fine that Peter messes up, but it’s been going on for too long, more recently that had him and MJ break up AGAIN and she’s with a nobody named Paul, people want to see him win and have a family.

1:03:05 Yeah those movies really aren't good representation of the characters.

Id love for you to check out The Flash CW tv show it's so good

MJ was always portrayed as strong willed. It's actually the crappy portrayal in the Tobey Miguire films that only show her as someone who needs rescued. No fault to the actress she was just given absolutely nothing to work with.

Pretty sure the comics copied Reimi with the organic webbing

If ya wanna know about the fantastic 4 I got the perfect video for you by B-mask who has a amazing video on marvels first family

Oh people don't like watchmojo bc they get things wrong here and there and sometimes there top 10 list videos are sometimes why you put it at this slot

And currently the main 616 continuity The Amazing Spider-Man is the worst its been in a LONG while Zeb wells needs to go asap Ultimate spiderman is fire though its only 4 issues right now and you dont need any prior knowledge to read it if you want to get into a comic

Have you seen the Tobey Maguire Movies?

WatchMojo is just trash 💀. I’d recommend channels like ScreenCrush, ComicsExplained, Nando v Movies and Pillars of Garbage for good comic book content

Garfield’s looks never bothered me honestly, it was the fact that his Peter was a cool edgy skateboarding brooding teenage instead of the nerdy wimp he’s suppose to be. Peter Parker in the garfield movies makes sarcastic witty remarks just like when he when he puts on the mask. The point of Peter being a wimpy nerd is that there no way a nerdy dork like Peter Parker could ever be the brave wise cracking friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Not a diss on Andrew Garfield just stating my point. He was a great Spider-Man but he isn’t the best PETER PARKER

I present to you guys, MCU Brain™️:

:0

First first first

1:28:50 It's not the fact that Miles would be the main Spider-Man that bothers me. He's cool. But the problems I have with these "woke" additions, which there are, is that they are always so forced, leading them to feel cheap and less like a good story. Miles earned his spot as Spider-Man because he's awesome, not because of the color of his skin. But the issue with that is the fact that they keep addressing it, over and over, that the color of his skin matters for some reason, therefore defeating the whole purpose. I don't care what color he is, just write him well and he'll be loved. Saying "you're oppressed because you look different" while he's living his best life doesn't really make much sense. Many, and probably most, modern writers don't seem to get that very well.
