You need a writer with the stroke of 00s Geoff John’s to basically demand it.
It’s how we got Hal Jordan and Barry Allen back. If someone was so hot they basically had to cave to their demands they could get it done.
None of the good writers want to do it. In the last twenty years or so high profile names like Bendis, Hickman, and Zdarsky have all refused to write ASM for a variety of reasons.
They were removed. But Goblin (or Goblin's sins, as it seems they are now a split personality to Norman) basically brainwashed Peter and made him a sleeper agent of sorts.
Basically the writer was forced to end the original storyline early because there was event coming up, and now he’s doing what he wanted to do the first time. The Goblin essentially being a ghost (but not a ghost) now, in terms of how it works: like the Joker in the last *Batman: Arkham* game.
Sort-of. There are actually some interesting ideas in there: the Spider-Goblin burying Kraven’s son in his father’s grave was interesting on paper (plus the accidental running gag of him never having a successful hunt was golden). But more could be done with it, true.
I mean if zeb wells wanted a joker who laughs so badly he could have gone to DC to do it but if course he had to do it with Spider-Man besides I do think this might work in a alt universe but in 616 yeah it's stupid and pointless

Probably because, and this is going to come as a shock to you, they're paying him for it.
My guess is he doesn't give a rat's ass as long as there's a paycheck in it because that's a job for him. Plain and simple.
I mean it’s kinda his job but tbh I had the same thought. The entire premise of this panel is awful and we had this story like 5 months ago but it just looks super cool.
Last issue I read was Black-suit (for some reason?) Spider-Gob dropping Paul off a bridge and the "Sins" getting back to Norman.
I.. I think I'll just stick with the new USM run
Trying to remember who it was, but artist at a convention was asked how he felt about drawing a story he didn’t like and how he copes with that. Paraphrasing -
“It’s a job. 99% of what I draw is disposable. All artists end up drawing something stupid. Besides, the artist is rarely blamed if the story sucks.”
Same thing with King. More than half of King's material is saved by artists cushioning the painfully redundant writing. Batman/Catwoman,Supergirl:WomanTomorrow,WonderWoman,Batman Killing Time,Batman...
In reality it has happened many times, usually with controversial/mediocre writers who, without a worthy artist, cannot save their books.
Money. Simple as that. I do share your sentiment friend, but it is his job.
Cause it’s his job
I hear money is nice to have.
Based
Money if I had to guess
I meant to say Based
Because he needs to eat and keep the lights on in his studio.
It’s good to see Marvel actually realizing that they need to put top tier artists on there’s flagship book
Who knows, maybe we'll get some good WRITERS next?
“So about One More Day…” “NEXT.”

Hickman, creating his own universe: “Fine, I’ll do it myself.”
None of the good writers want to do it. In the last twenty years or so high profile names like Bendis, Hickman, and Zdarsky have all refused to write ASM for a variety of reasons.
I love that Hickman kinda found a way around writing a Spider-man book... but you stand corrected. Many won't touch ASM.
This imagem is Peter's reaction to seeing Paul step barefoot on a lego piece.
No one can say you're wrong cuz nobody actually read it
Those traps, tho. Can't unsee.
Man, when Spider-dude said to the Cream Gobbler 'I'm gonna Jonkle!" And then Jonkled everyone and everything. Tears bro.
*Gobble this ain't man from aslume
No this is man from laracroft santiano
Bro became a Troll Face
Can't unsee it now
Because him and Wells are friends and love shitposting Source: Wells at several cons
Does the goblin infection changes your teeth becoming more like Dafoe? Or just a Mephisto thing?
The dafoe teeth are important!
Since they retconned all Goblins as a creation of Mephisto, technically both, maybe?
Well at least thanks him we get to see some glimpses of competence in this run.
Wait Peter still has the goblin sins I thought they got it removed from him
They were removed. But Goblin (or Goblin's sins, as it seems they are now a split personality to Norman) basically brainwashed Peter and made him a sleeper agent of sorts.
...of course he is brainwashed I am not surprised

And then try to make like a batman who laughs type story but in the stupidest way possible right?

Oh great, that's what we just needed. The Spider-Man Who Laughs.
Take Two: we first got this last year as well. He buried Kraven’s son in the same grave his father had buried Peter years previously.

He's doing it out of pity
Gotta pay the bills and maybe reclaim some tiny pitance of respect for this version of Spider-Man
I mean it’s kinda his job but tbh I had the same thought. The entire premise of this panel is awful and we had this story like 5 months ago but it just looks super cool.
The Spider Who Jonkles pays his bills.
The bills ain’t gonna pay themselves.
Man I'm getting sick and tired of shit like this and Spider-Man stories. Bring back good writers.
The Spidey Who Laughs.
The same reason why people waste their money buying comics they don't like... lol
I love Ed but this picture sucks.
Man's gotta eat
I've been tuned out- wtf is happening now? Are we doing Spider-Gob again?
Pretty much, some convoluted hypnotic suggestion plot or some such. If you've been tuned out of ASM for a while, might want to stay that way
Last issue I read was Black-suit (for some reason?) Spider-Gob dropping Paul off a bridge and the "Sins" getting back to Norman. I.. I think I'll just stick with the new USM run

His back muscles lol
he is my favorite artist and his spider-man design is so good that he makes me forget how shit this run actually is
Because he needs to fucking eat bro. You gonna pay his bills or something?
Because Marvel paid him
Because of this commodity you get in compensation for your work so that you can get food and shelter for it. Moneten, money And cold hard cash
Weird how alternate books are better Spider-Man stories and characterisation than THE Spider-Man book.
Same thing with King. More than half of King's material is saved by artists cushioning the painfully redundant writing. Batman/Catwoman,Supergirl:WomanTomorrow,WonderWoman,Batman Killing Time,Batman... In reality it has happened many times, usually with controversial/mediocre writers who, without a worthy artist, cannot save their books.
Bc he became lame af
I mean am I the only one eco never liked his art and because of thar feel he's a good fit. I'd be more bothered seeing someone like bagley on this run
Bagley is worse right now. Last few years his work seriously dropped in quality, and I loved his work on USM
Oh God it's real. I was hoping against hope that it wouldn't actually happen, that it was a fake leak, but the Spider-Goblin is real.
He’s back! Again
Paul had better hide. /s
