I was alerted to something on CBR, a Venom-themed expansion pack for the board game 'Marvel Villainous', standard cards for Peter and even Ben in his Scarlet Spider days, but one card for MJ refers to her as "Mary Jane Parker"

Manchester Black was a mole for Luthor the entire time during the events of Warworld Rising

Superman's secret identity is back...and Jon won't be public either. comicbook.com/comics/news/superman-and-son-get-to-get-their-secret-identities-back-exclusive/Article infers there's repercussions, but Johnson says the story celebrates Lois and Clark, so I guess Lois forgets but it makes their marriage stronger? Genis-Vell: Captain Marvel#5 Death finally packs it in, since people dying has been completely cheapened in the Marvel Universe, she doesn't want to carry on, so Marlo volunteers to take up the task and replaces her, she and Rick kiss one final time and off she goes |

Well we're half way through damage control on Superman but still going to be very weird to explain how you're 11 year old son jumped to 17 in a week, & you adopted 2 other children out of nowhere

Marvel Unlimited: Spider-Verse#26 kicks off a new storyline with Mayday Parker. The writer is Stephanie Williams.
Mayday is once again publicly known as Spider-Girl, she teams up with the Lady Hawks to thwart a crime. She appears to no longer be dating her last boyfriend Wes and is flirting with a new teen in town called Jason. She returns home where Peter and MJ are about to head off on a date night. Peter still uses his cane so The Other didn't heal him when he was resurrected. After they leave, Benjy, now looking like a tyke and playing with a Spider-Mobile toy, tells Mayday he wants to check out a kids arcade that he sees advertised on the television

JSA is a bit weaker than Stargirl but I still enjoyed it. Helena had now become the new Huntress & has formed a JSA using mostly villains (Solomon Grundy, Son of Harlequin, Red Lantern, Mist, Icicle, & Gentleman Ghost with Power Girl being the only hero), searching for Dr. Fate. They found him dead at the hands of Per Degaton who kills everyone in the JSA but Helena who's able to survive thanks to Selena using the snowglob from Flaspoint Beyond to hurl Helena all the way into the 1940's.

Phillip Kennedy Johnson with another interview hyping up the identity restoration...though he says he'd have preferred more time playing with people's public knowledge of Clark's alter-ego, indicating this was a very recent editorial call.
What's not happening, according to him, is any attempt at overriding Teen Jon's character advancement by restoring him to a kid, not even bringing Jon back via time travel, citing the potentially lousy optics of 'bi-erasure' and disrespecting Taylor and Bendis (despite the fact both have failed to make Jon a thing with his age-up)
It's pretty rich to say Kid Jon isn't happening when promoting a book where half the title is dedicated to a new back-up strip that focuses on restoring the Rebirth status quo and uses Kid Jon.

Dark Web#1 preview comicbook.com/comics/news/spider-man-x-men-dark-web-1-preview/So after hiding from Peter in closets and angrily telling him off for not 'getting' responsibility, MJ suddenly wants a 'ceasefire' and talk to Peter again because they're all mourning Harry. We'll get very little advanced with Paul or the kids in this story, ,because he's looking after them off-screen, so the mystery will be all about MJ's powers and not her relationships. Probably a wise move that makes the story more open and accessible to X-Men fans. |

I do kinda feel for PKJ wishing to explore the then status quo about Superman's public identity. Don't get me wrong I hated the Identity reveal especially since we JUST had a similar plot with Truth in the New 52 but PKJ has been showing to be the bright spot in an otherwise bad era of Superman books (I haven't read Warworld but just from memory of his immediate takeover post-Bendis he at least has a good understanding of the character & honestly his handling of Jon & his place as "The Next Superman" is honestly superior to Tom Taylor's lampshading the whole thing).
You know maybe he would've done a better job with it given time to explore. See the negative consequences of the exposure that would be a bit more threatening to him & his family & friends, but also a few positives he inflicted before making something up that forces him to put the genie back in the bottle.

Spider-Man#3
Nooooo, the Disney Princess Spider got turned...and she still finds an excuse to burst into song!
Oh and Peter got stabbed by the unsubtle knife and cut off from the web of life and destiny, ceasing to exist, so I guess this is Slott's way of removing his chosen one status so he can be saved by a new one
Anyone find it a little too coincidental that Marvel and DC's flagship heroes both snuff it in the same week?
