Earlier today, comic book writer and MCU consultant, Brian Michael Bendis did a Q&A Reddit AMA. Here are some of the highlights:

liamquane asked: What is your favorite film of the Marvel Universe and Why?

BrianMichaelBendis: I really like Capt. America Winter soldier. it just hits my soft spots.

RonFett asked: Has the forthcoming Secret Wars altered your original direction for Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man or is everything unfolding the way you intended? I'm asking because Secret Wars is going to be starting soon yet there are lots of plot points in Ultimate Spider-Man that haven't even been touched on yet (like the Spider-Man twins). LOVE your work by the way. :)

BrianMichaelBendis: We have a few more issues to go so stay tuned and I've known about secret wars for years. literally. you just heard about it but we've been planning for a long time.

Ianras asked: Are you going to revise Fortune and Glory now that you have seen what a completed movie/tv project looks like from beginning to end?

BrianMichaelBendis: I don't think I would ever revise it but the sequel may be in order.

carletonseth asked: What are your favourite books you are currently reading?

BrianMichaelBendis: Lazarus, bitch planet, demon, sex criminals, Casanova, the wicked and the divine, trees, shaft.

RyanMHolt asked: Cannot wait for Powers!!! What ever happened to Peter trying to track down 616-Miles that was teased at the end of Spider-Men? Has that been shelved or will it be explored in the future? Do you think Spider-Gwen will eventually have the legacy that Ultimate Spider-Man has now?

BrianMichaelBendis: spider-men 2 is still very much a thing. keep an eye in the sky. its a big year for reveals with marvel's secret war coming. as far as spider-gwen, only time will tell. but i wish every creator the complete joy we have has with USM. sincerely.

dayofthedead204 asked: Hi Brian, Thanks for doing this ama, I’m a huge fan! I have three questions: I’ve heard you’re a fan of Alan Moore’s work – what are your top three favorite titles he’s written? When will we find out who is Miles Morales in the main Marvel Universe that was hinted at the end of “Spider-Men?” This is a little off topic but what do you think about The Transformers franchise? Do you have a favorite Transformer? Thanks Brian!

BrianMichaelBendis: Promethea, the league of extraordinary gentlemen century books, and the last Superman story. yes. never been much of a Transformers person. that has eluded me. and the movies don't help, do they? :) but if you get a chance to watch the Transformers movies with RiffTrax... perfection

I liked Whatever Happened To The Man of Steel but preferred For The Man Who Has Everything.

Bendis writes great stuff... sometimes.

His DD work is excellent and a few other things he's worked on over the years.

But some of his work is just trash.

One of the things I dislike is that he has a habit of writing sooooooooooooooo much dialogue of non essential stuff. Like a TV report or something.

I like it best when comics use the panels to tell most of the story.

He's a good writer, just I don't like EVERYTHING he's done. In fact I hate some of the stuff he has done.

But he is a good writer.

@HurricaneXavier I agree. Personally he's one of my favorite comic book writers and with Miles Morales created another Spider-Man who is almost as awesome as Peter Parker!

No.......it doesn't say anything. He finds someone else's work more enjoyable. A lot of professional artists and writers do. Nothing wrong with that. Your simply looking for something that's not there. But keep on keeping on.

His Age of Ultron was pure crap. Glad the only thing the film has in common with it is the name.

For a writer, he really has shitty grammar.

Somebody should've asked him this: "When are you going to kill Sam and bring back the real Nova?"
