Thrive to spite them

The Young Avengers I have on hold is finally ready to pick up. I got excited when I read that at work and was like "i'll get it on my way home". Except the library closed before I got off so now I have to wait until tomorrow.

I also looked through the trade paperbacks they had and I thought I picked up the start of the Spider-Gwen ones but I didn't so I have to take that back and find the right one. I also requested The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.

I'd like to read some Spiderman but I have no idea where to start there.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I don't know where a good place to start with classic Spider-Man would be, but Bendis' run on Ultimate Spider-Man is really solid, at least the first few years. (I eventually got burned out on them when it started getting side-tracked by big crossover events and such.) My only real complaint about them is I don't care for their take on the Green Goblin.

DC’s version of Marvel’s Ultimate Universe is called the Absolute Universe. I mean—fine—but can’t you show just a little more creativity?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Wait, that event is happening in an alternate continuity? I thought it was happening across all the main books.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Fucking finally!
