Spider-Man has been consistently one of Marvel's best-selling characters pretty much since his inception, spinning off into at times dozens of different ongoing series, crossovers, all that fun stuff. He's also one of the most beloved of the publisher's superheroes, but that doesn't mean he doesn't sometimes run afoul of fanboy ire — in fact, when there's so much Spidey content out there, and it's been going for so long, the law of Stick Man and Other Stories suggests some of it will be naff. And still more of it will be so offensive as to become infamous. From the terrible retcons to character-ruining plots, here are five of the most controversial Spider-Man comic book stories. Now relegated to Star Trek photo-comics, John Byrne was once considered one of the hottest properties in comic books — along with drawing many great Fantastic Four and X-Men stories, he was behind the post- Death of reboot series Man Of Steel, which updated DC's premier superhero for the modern era. Hoping to imitate the success of their distinguished competition, Marvel poached Byrne to come do the same thing for Spidey. Spider-Man: Chapter One retold the character's origin with some significant changes: Peter gets his powers after being bitten by a spider following a huge radioactive explosion he's involved in during a demonstration by Otto Octaviuswho also survives but has his octopus-like scientific apparatus fused to him ; Mary Jane's mom is the cop that tells Peter and Aunt May about Uncle Ben's death; most of the villains get revised costumes and power Stick Man and Other Stories plus it's revealed the Green Goblin actually masterminded most of Spidey's early battles with bad guys. Fans love Spider-Man, and when you love something, you probably don't enjoy seeing it tampered with. Byrne's series trampled over a lot of classic stories, including the unassailable Amazing Fantasy 15 where the character first appeared, and introduces a lot of unnecessary connections between Peter and his supporting cast of friends and enemies. Byrne basically rendered all of that obsolete by updating Spidey so the sixties stories never took place, his new version replacing them. It's a storyline that began in the seventies, but only really kicked into gear during the mid-nineties comic book boom: decades after Spider-Man fought super-scientist villain The Jackal, who had somehow produced clones of both himself and dearly departed ex-girlfriend Gwen Stacythe genetic double he had left for dead in a smokestack returns — bringing with him the revelation that, in fact, the Peter Parker comic readers had been enjoying adventures with since the seventies and who had since married his college sweetheart, Mary Jane Watson was, in fact, a clone. Just to prove it, Fake-Peter begins losing his powers. He also contends with another, failed Spidey clone called Kaine, and a resurrected Jackal who knows Peter's secret identity. Well, the most obvious answer is that readers felt cheated. Trying to sell the twist that, for all intents and purposes, they had been spending their hard-earned money on comics detailing the ongoing life and superhero career of a knock-off Spidey wasn't easy. Least of all because it felt like rocking the boat simply for the sake of causing controversy and boosting sales — which was absolutely the impetus behind it, and the result it had, Marvel hoping to imitate the success of DC's Death of Superman and : Knightfall storylineswhich involved significant if temporary changes to the status quo of those superheroes. It also had the result of major fan outcry. You know something's a major screw-up when the publishers hasten to scrub the whole thing from existence soon after, which is exactly what Marvel did. He just wanted to mess with Peter's head. Albeit too little, too late, the story by Kaare Andrews is very directly inspired possibly even ripped off from Stick Man and Other Stories The Dark Knight ReturnsFrank Miller's iconic, gritty Batman story which inspired a certain recent movie. As that comic Stick Man and Other Stories the Caped Crusader older, gruffer, and living in a dystopian future Gotham City The sixty-year-old Spidey is moved back into action by the fascistic, violent mayor, who unleashes the long-imprisoned . Rather sweetly, it's J. First of all, it's a pretty blatant facsimile of . It's also nowhere near as good as The Dark Knight Returns is, Stick Man and Other Stories its originality, fierceness, and invention. Plus, the dystopian future suits a brooding hero like Batman far more than the happy-go-lucky, joke-flinging wallcrawler. That is slightly inappropriate for a superhero comic and also, super gross. You hate it Stick Man and Other Stories now Stick Man and Other Stories know, right? Babylon 5 creator J. Fans were divided on that, and Stick Man and Other Stories more so on what Stick Man and Other Stories next. Namely, it reveals that Gwen Stacy had an affair with Norman Osborn whilst she was dating Peter, and the result were a couple of twins she gave birth to shortly before her death. Hidden from public view and experimented upon by Osborn, they become adults at an accelerated rate and are sicced upon Spidey by his arch nemesis. Because Gwen Stick Man and Other Stories tragic death seems a little more messed up when it's not just the Green Goblin wanting to ruin Spider-Man's life — it's also because he doesn't want his Stick Man and Other Stories lover messing up Stick Man and Other Stories plans he has for his new potential heirs. Plus the romance of Peter and Gwen, and the guilt he has to this day over her untimely demise, is spoilt a little when you realised she was bumping uglies on the DL with Norman Osborn pretty regularly. Once again, it's one of those big changes to classic continuity that fans hate, and a particularly distasteful one at that. Actually, he mainly just wanted to split Peter and Mary Jane up, with the resulting tidying up of everything else more a happy side-effect. Consequently, the two's marriage is undone, a change which sends ripple effects through the wall crawler's history. As in, selling a marriage to a devil. By Thomas Baker.
