OP

They're not the oldest comics, and they're mostly from a pretty specific time range circa 1975. It's also a little while since I read them all. But I remember him being a dick every time he showed up in Defenders, a show-stealing dick in Howard the Duck, and I think also a dick in some Fantastic Four somewhere along the line? DD only came up in the stack I worked through once or twice, so if they got on okay I missed it. I seem to recall Hulk disliking him though, and he's usually a pretty good judge of character. :P

IDK. I grew up watching the Spiderman series from the 90s, and I read the newspaper adaptation when I was a little girl. I had plenty of opportunity to like him, but unlike X-Men, I felt too old for him after a while, if you see what I mean. I'm not even slightly judging you for enjoying him, now or ever, but I found him too self-consciously written as young to identify with him after the age of about - got to be honest here - seven or so, and he's obviously written to be relatable (unlike, say, Strange or Vision or someone spacey and fun to read). He lost a lot of appeal to me when I started seeing him as this snarky youngster. Considering it was another few years before I stopped getting much out of The Beano, that says a lot about how he came off to me. He just seems really judgemental and quick to react, even compared to famously conclusion-jumping characters. Like Cyclops - at least to my mind - can be like that, but he seems far more likely to be called on his bullshit because he works in ensemble comics.
