Spider-Girl/YMMV

Alas, Poor Scrappy: April
Alas, Poor Villain: Crazy Eight.
Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Ben's birth was a BIG one
- When Peter recognizes Aunt May during the battle with Norman
- Aunt May, is it really you?
Crowning Moment of Awesome: Maurice not hitting the Domestic Abuser who attacked Courtney for trying to protect her friend... even though he really, really wanted to.
Crowning Moment of Funny: Courtney's fantasy about being Spider-Girl
Cult Classic: The Spider-Girl comic is the single longest run of a Marvel comic featuring a female as the main cape of the comic. It also ended up being the longest running part of the MC2 universe, running from 1998-2010. While the sales were never particularly high (it was always teeter-tottering just above the cutoff for cancellation), most fans who did read the comic have almost nothing but high praise, and the cancellation was met with almost universal negative backlash.
Ensemble Darkhorse: Maurice.
- May herself was this for the What If...? series, as a lot of long-time Spider-Man readers who were disillusioned with the Clone Saga consider her to be the true conclusion to Peter and MJ's relationship, and the true Spiritual Successor to the classic Spidey style. Some go as far as to tell people to stop with Spider-Man after his 1998 comics run and switch over to May's title for more Spider adventures. Of course, being a bolsterous Tomboy only adds to May's already impressive IRL marketing draw.
Fan-Preferred Couple: May and Wes. May/Normie before the Ship Sinking.
Funny Aneurysm Moment: Funny Face's friendship with his stick-puppet Bucky, who he treats as a real person-slash-child. Made painfully unfunny when Funny Face has a Freak-Out over May webbing Bunky, claiming she's hurting, suffocating and scaring him because "Bunky" is claustrophobic, due to "his" mother locking him up in a closet for days at a time.
- Joe Quesada apparently loves the series, and considers it the natural progression of Spider-Man and the Marvel Universe. This coming from the same guy who deliberately undid Peter and MJ's marriage, whilst aborting their unborn child in a Deal with the Devil.
  - Cue the announcement of "The End". Man, Quesada does hate seeing a married Peter Parker, doesn't he?
    - It could be that Quesada has two different tastes: he likes Spider-Man as long as he is not married, and he likes the marriage of Mary Jane and Peter Parker as long as Peter is not Spider-man. It is natural progression because it shows Peter passing on his legacy to his daughter. What he doesn't like about the mainstream is how blending marriage and super-heroics complicates things too much.
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: What April does to Tombstone, after she believes he's killed Mayday. She suffocates him with her symbiote, ignoring his pleas.
Jerkass Woobie: Amy Parker
Launcher of a Thousand Ships: Felicity
Moral Event Horizon: Probably April's murder of Tombstone. To be fair, she did think he killed her "sister".
- April crossed the line when she decided not to inform May's family and friends that she was (allegedly) dead and once again steal her identity.
- Brad bullying Nancy in order to get her to quit school. To the point of bringing an angry mob to her house. Worst of all, it worked.
Nightmare Fuel: April's symbiote form. That might be sexy to some, though.
Periphery Demographic: Launched as part of an a verse for kids, the series is also popular with older Spider-Man fans, especially after One More Day. The Mythology Gags don't hurt either.
- Plus female readers who enjoy a competent, not so "super" heroine.
Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Kaine. YMMV depending on how you feel about Nineties Anti Heroes.
The Scrappy: Gene Thompson
- April Parker appears to be fighting him for the number one Scrappy spot.
  - And now they might be turning into a Scrappy Couple, despite May's efforts to stop it.
- Brad
Villain Decay: Mr. Abnormal, Earthshaker and Killerwatt went from being credible bad guys to a collection of inept D-list government agents when they reappear several years later.
- YMMV on whether Earthshaker was ever credible to begin with.
The Woobie: "Invisible Girl" Meagyn Brady, who becomes an Invisible Woman because no one notices her, not even her widowed mother.
- May routinely has periods where everything in her life falls apart. Luckily, she always manages to (mostly) put it back together.
  - Poor Felicity. Always the convenient computer nerd acquaintance, never the sidekick.
  - Darkdevil, once you find out his backstory is a long Trauma Conga Line of Abusive Parents, Clone Degeneration and Demonic Possession.
  - April Parker. The Parkers (and May's friends) don't like her because she's an annoying clone with violent tendencies... but she doesn't know any better yet. The moment she told Peter she liked him better as Norman was heartbreaking.
- Maurice
