What are JBs responses to common complaints about continuity changes in CHAPTER ONE?
Norman Osborn behind some of the other villains/threats (which Untold Tales also did, but not with known ones) JB: A “reveal”, not a change. To qualify as a “change” you must first show evidence that points to the contrary. Norman Osborn related to the Sandman JB: Again, a “reveal”. Nothing in the previous 30 years indicated otherwise. a big explosion that impacted more than just Peter, and led to Peter being in the hospital for some time. JB: A change — necessitated by the updating. Modern readers know much more about how radioactivity works than was the case in 1963. (I wonder what would have been the reaction if I had, as was briefly considered, gone with a genetically engineered spider, in lieu of a radioactive one?) the explosion also gave birth to Dr. Octopus JB: That is Ock’s origin. the burglar picked the house, not at random, but because he had a run in with Uncle Ben.
