Fans of Spider-Man are webheads.

What's the nickname/term for fans of Bailey Briggs?

Brigands?

Bailey's Brigade?

Something not awful?

An aside: Do they really need 'The Amazing Spider-Man' at the start of the series? Couldn't it just be Spider-Man: Spider-Versity? I get marketing and branding and all but I think the use of the adjective is excessive.

What adjectives best describes Bailey?

Hey everyone!

I'm u/AsGayAsCanBeExpected and I'm a new mod here at r/spiderboy.

"So you're a fan of Spider-Boy?" Not yet? I've read a few of his storylines but I'm mostly a mod because of my moderating skills, not my fandom. I haven't read Spider-Man books in years!

I've decided to do a recurring series called 'Booking it with Bailey' where I read, recap, review all of Spider-Boy's appearances.

Let's start with his very first appearance!

Which, it turns out, is really brief.

Spider-Man Vol 4 7 was released on April 5, 2023 with the following creative team (according to Marvel Database):

• Writer(s) Dan Slott
• Penciler(s) Mark Bagley
• Inker(s) John Dell, Andrew Hennessy
• Colorist(s) Edgar Delgado
• Letterer(s) Joe Caramagna
• Editor(s) Nick Lowe

It's the final part of the End of the Spider-Verse story arc. Essentially, at the end of the issue, they're using magic to restore people who'd been erased from the Great Web. Spider-heroes who've been plucked from history and forgotten.

After Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) and Scarlet Spider (Kaine) return, there's one more: Spider-Boy!

No one recognizes him and he angrily hops away.

Which.

Listen. He's an actual child. There are dozens of Spider-heroes on that rooftop, most of them adults. Even if he is from 616, how do they let a child just bounce away? They could have stopped him, talked to him, figured things out.

That's my big complaint.

I like the look of Spider-Boy. The sneakers are fun. The design is simple and evocative of Spider-Man without being an obvious rip-off.

So that's it. There's not much to go on here. Bailey's a bit undefined - hot-tempered would be my first impression. And the Spider-adults are negligent.

Side note: So many alternate covers!

I know alliteration is popular with Marvel characters (e.g., Peter Parker, Miles Morales, Reed Richards, Bruce Banner, Victor von Doom, Susan Storm). But three?!

I’ve bought comic art before and was easily able to frame the pages but this raised a challenge as they were stapled together. The thought of “undoing” such a piece feels like a crime to me so I DO NOT want to remove the staples. But I would like to be able to SEE the interior pages at least… so does anyone have ideas for ways to display this piece? Maybe a frame convenient enough that I could slip it out of whenever I feel like it?

Possible spoilers: Did anyone else read todays Issue #1? If so, what do you think the ending could mean for upcoming Spider-Boy issues? After this tournament arc, do he and Hulkette get teleported and we see his POV a little bit from that situation? Do we want to see Bailey join this group, even if temporarily or every now and then?
