Spiderman?

Question

I saw an article stating that spiderman reveal his true identity to the world in a story-line.

Was this a fantasy story-line or is this going to be part of his regular story-line from this point on?

Answer 1

It depends which comic your reading, if its a old comic then no, there are multiple new spider man comic sieres out and each story line is diffrent, so for that comic yes but not the others.

Answer 2

I think it's cool. I lover spiderman, but it does frustrate me stuff like the Green Goblin turning ou to be alive all along, and him just hiding. Aunt May being alive all along and being held captive, and some actress playing her on her dead bead.

I just hope they don't come up with some idiotic thing later on like all of it being a dream.

Answer 3

It only pertains to the "civil war" comic.

In the latest edition of the Marvel comic "Civil War" on sale, Spiderman does the unthinkable and removes his Spidey mask to publicly reveal his hidden identity.

"I'm proud of who I am, and I'm here right now to prove it," the legendary webslinger tells a press conference called in New York's Times Square, before pulling off his mask and standing before the massed ranks of reporters as newspaper photographer Peter Parker.

"Any questions?" Parker asks in the final panel of the issue, amid a barrage of camera flashes.

In a statement, Marvel trumpeted the revelation as "arguably the most shocking event in comic book history."

The seven-issue "Civil War" series, launched in May, sees Marvel's writers taking on the topical issue of civil liberties.

Following a showdown between a group of superheroes and supervillains in which hundreds of innocent civilians are killed, the government passes the Super-Hero Registration Act, requiring all superheroes to reveal their identities and register as "living weapons of mass destruction."

Marvel's roster of invincible crime fighters is split into two bitterly opposed factions, with one camp -- championed by the likes of Spiderman -- in favour of the new law and the other, including Captain America and his ilk, refusing to relinquish anonymity.

"It's about which side you are on and why you think you are right," said Marvel Comics editor-in-chief Joe Quesada.

Answer 4

I think they're stuck w/ this storyline.

Which is fine, I think Parker never liked the secret ID anyway.

But, the Marvel Universe is getting messed up in general.

Answer 5

It's true.It's in a new comic book.
