DoomReed shippers who are also PotO fans, come get y'alls juice!

Here’s another commission, this time for the lovely mommamariastark. Janet Van Dyne and Clint Barton!

[spaghettireed]

I really just want to point out that in-universe Reed is pretty universally beloved and that literally everyone goes to him for help – Avengers, mutants, metahumans, Inhumans, Namor, Doom, supervillains, EVERYONE – because they all know that he’s so kind and compassionate that he’d never turn away anyone who needed his help. 

Taxi drivers in 616 canonically love Reed because he’s so nice and generous: 

Reed Richards, nice guy, good tipper, twenty percent, every time. All the guys love him.

Regular scientists fanboy/girl over Reed:

As one of the FF, I see Reed all the time. It’s easy to forget that to the rest of the world…he’s like Albert Einstein and Indiana Jones rolled into one.

And according to a visiting writer/observer, the FF are generally thought of by the public as being as glamorous and beloved as the Kennedys.

So the public, in general, canonically loves Reed. 

As for people who know him better? Sue considers him the finest man she’s ever known and thinks of her love for him as the lodestone of her being. Ben couldn’t love Reed more if they were related, loves him almost as much as Sue does, considers him the best friend he’s ever had, and literally gave up Heaven for him because he couldn’t bear to leave him. Johnny completely adores him and sees him as a father figure. Tony Stark considers him a good man and a good friend. Steve Rogers has said that he thinks Reed’s a true hero and mentions that he’s renown for his compassion. Black Bolt and Medusa both love him – the FF were the only humans invited to Black Bolt and Medusa’s wedding, and they’re always welcome in Attilan. He’s like a brother to T’Challa, and he and T’Challa were permanently and mystically linked by the goddess Bast. Peter Parker is a giant Reed fanboy, who even had a poster of him up in his room in high school. So Reed is pretty beloved and respected within the superhero community too.

So this whole thing fandom does where they pretend Reed’s widely hated in 616 instead of beloved by pretty much everyone is just completely inaccurate. It doesn’t line up with canon in the slightest.

Everyone in 616 loves Reed, and that’s canon.

Very Interesting to me that when Tony and Stephen kicked the bucket Doom spent zero time grieving and just went: I can do their job better, oh yeah totally a tribute to them, I should have their stuff and show everyone how much better I am at that.

Huge ego trip, and also at both points in his life he was seeking a form a power which tracks with his usual motivation of having an almost uncontrollable addiction/need to seeking power because it’s all he has been doing since he was a child. The fact he just sweeps them under the rug and tries to take over their stuff is not only interesting but hilarious.

Doom: Oh no… they died… how sad… anyone else gonna take over their mantle of power?

Clea & Riri: um yeah

Doom: Anyone? no? I should have it, it’s mine now. 

But.

When Reed died he did not do that. Like. His loss of the man he considered his only true equal, and he was quiet. Because he knew he could not replace Reed, no one ever could replace Reed. It’s heartbreaking actually to see how different his reactions are. Even from a non shipping standpoint you see how different the “death” of Reed affects him than others. 

Anyways I think about this panel a lot. A. Lot.

Victor von Doom as Infamous Iron Man in Marvel Contest of Champions

[spaghettireed]

Victor's wearing gold & green, sort of an extreme high-fashion version of his traditional look--and Reed is doing the exact same thing, with the blue & white.

They match. They literally turned up at the Gala in outfits by the same tailor, and matched. Love that for them. 💙💚

Hi! Could you make me some icons and headers of Miguel O'Hara?

Miguel O'Hara - Spider-Man 2099 Icons

— Spider-Man 2099 Vol 2 (2014)

Like or reblog if you save/use.

Don't repost as your own.

[spaghettireed]

Okay I just got into Spider-Man 2099 and I really like it and I feel, with the new movie coming out, that fans who may not should know some of these things about Miguel O’Hara:

1. He’s a full-grown man, not a teenager, so go for the dorito body-type, not the lanky teen thing.

2. He’s part Irish, part Mexican, so there’s that.

3. His costume was just a Day of the Dead outfit that he rigged webbing to.

4. He has no Spider-Sense, no Peter Tingle. 5. He’s mean. He’s more like Tony Stark in his snarkiness than your average Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.

6. He kills. And even though it’s usually when a bad guy pushes him too far, the hallmark seems to be cruelty. Miguel does not like it when Venture stabs a citizen, or when he finds out that Vulture 2099 is a cannibal. Those sorts of facts make him yell mean things and drop bad guys like bags of dirt. He’s very vengeful.

7. He talks way more outside of the mask than he does as Spider-Man. WAY more. And it’s witty and sarcastic.

8. He is an egomaniac.

9. He is a womanizer.

10. He has a really unhappy family history with an abusive dad (who turns out not to be his dad, his actual dad is much worse) a mentally unbalanced mom who likes to fake her own death often to get attention, and a little brother who, although he cares about Miguel, also harbors intense jealousy toward him.

11. Miguel is a genius as far as genetics go, but he is not a genius in technology or hardware. His closest friend, Lyla, is his A.I. housekeeper, and when she goes on the fritz he can’t fix her and has to go to his little brother to help. He also has no web-shooters.

12. He is from the future, after all the Marvel Heroes are long gone, and corporations rule the world and control the law enforcement…so Miguel winds up fighting the “police” of his time more often than actual “villains.”

13. Since he’s a grown man when he gets spider-powers, it may behoove you to know he is engaged to his brother’s ex girlfriend, Dana. She’s a gem.

13. My personal favorite fact: he doesn’t have traditional Spider-Powers. Miguel can stick to walls but he glides just as often if not more frequently than he swings. His DNA is biologically merged with a spider, which means his eyes turned red and he has to wear tinted glasses because he sees better in the dark than in any kind of light. His fingertips and toe tips (NOT nails) pop out “talons,” which look like fleshy hooks and can cut through bone and metal. They pop out when he’s nervous or afraid and he has to teach himself not to have them out constantly. They don’t retract like claws, they fold down like switchblades. He also has sharp fang teeth which he finds out can paralyze enemies. He winds up mumbling a lot and rarely smiling so he doesn’t show them off. Also, he has genuine spinnerets and his webs are organic, and they come from the tops of his forearms, not the underside of his wrists, so he doesn’t make the Spidey hand signal. Additionally, the sound effect is not “Thwip.” It’s “FWIZZ.”

14. Miguel does not have much genuine heroism in him before becoming Spider-Man. He’s a rich, egotistical jerk working for the main cruel government corporation of his world, Alchemax. He doesn’t like the people in charge, but he’s so into his genetics project that he doesn’t call them out. He is arrogant and verbally nasty to his coworkers, and talks down to the former head of his department as he explains that they’re trying to recreate powers like Spider-Man’s by tampering with genetics so that the company’s enforcers can be stronger. They make him start human trials before he’s ready, and he goes through with it, but the thing that rings his bell is cruelty. He sees what the experiment does to a convict they’re testing it out on and decides to quit. So he goes straight to the CEO and tries to walk out all dramatically, but the CEO slips him a drug called Rapture which Miguel will inevitably get addicted to, and lets him know that if he doesn’t keep working for them, he’ll go into Rapture-withdrawal and die. Miguel can’t handle being anybody’s puppet, so late that night he goes into the lab and decides to try to genetically alter himself, just a little, to get the drug out of his system. BUT the former head of the department? The one Miguel was a jerk and condescending to? He sees Miguel in the machine and ups the dosage of spider DNA, turning Miguel into a freak. Initially Miguel tries to commit suicide, then as he’s falling changes his mind. Point being: Miguel got spider powers because of his own experimentation, and meanness to people, and it takes him a while to decide to see how brutal the corporation he works for is and decide to be a hero. Initially, he’s just looking for a way to cure himself.

I LOVE the comics and I can’t wait to see what they do with them.
