- Maybe a good idea as the character was both the Scarlet Spider and Spider-Man and is probably better known as Reilly. Doesnt really matter though as Ben Reilly is a redirect here anyway.Hueysheridan 13:17, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
- The article was AT Ben Reilly, and it was moved (and the redirect edited to stop easy moving back) last week. I'm trying to get it moved back.
- BTW, is that an "Abstain"? - SoM 18:36, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
- No, like I said, I agree with you, Ben Reilly would be more appropriate. (unsigned comment (diff by Hueysheridan)
This article has been renamed after the result of a move request. violet/riga (t) 17:13, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Reilly starring in Web and Spider-Man?
Didnt the Scarlet Spider basically take over the Spider-Man and Web of Spider-Man titles for a few months immediately after he debuted? I seem to remember that he did.
If anyone knows for sure maybe they could amend the "Scarlet Spider Titles" section? Hueysheridan
- He did, for Web of Life, a vs. Venom story (and maybe one other). I forget the issue nos. though. - SoM 18:36, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Separating "Scarlet Spider" and "Ben Reilly"
It seems to me that there should be two separate articles, since there have been three separate Scarlet Spiders. This would also make this comics-related article more consistent with Robin/Dick Grayson or Batgirl/Barbara Gordon. I recognize that this page used to be "Scarlet Spider" and that there's already been an issue with moving it, but splitting it seems to be a different issue--even Nightwing has a page separate from Dick Grayson, despite the fact that he is by far the most significant "Nightwing." Any thoughts? Eric Qel-Droma 13:38, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ben Reilly in Civil War
It was announced on one of the writers' blogs that Ben Reilly would be making a return, which sparked up a lot of conversation on forums, only for it to be just Peter taking up his clone brother's name as a disguise as well as the aid of a image device given to him by Beast in Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #14. Should this be mentioned as trivia or should it really be on the Spider-Man page? 81.86.143.121 16:46, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- It should be added, but not yet because the issue just came out. We should wait a couple weeks so no one is spoiled and then I think it should get a mention that Pete is masquarading as Reilly.
[edit] Ben Reilly as the Non-Clone?
Who rewrote the Ben Reilly section on the Scarlet Spider page (the talk section links to here) to claim that Reilly was the original, and Parker is the clone? The changed section claims that most people are mistaken in believing Reilly to be the clone. But Reilly's body disintegrated after his death, proving once and for all that he was the clone and Parker was the original. Junior612 23:21, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes Ben is the clone but for a long time even the comic creators of spider-Man admitted that Ben Reilly was real and Peter was the clone. It turns out that the comic creators lied. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.118.75.149 (talk) 21:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Referencing
Should the {{ref}} templates be used in this article instaed of the <ref> tag (given the structure of the referencing for this article)? --JB Adder | Talk 01:34, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Four Scarlet Spiders
Technically speaking, there was four Scarlet Spiders. During a time when Peter Parker was arrested for outstanding murders in Utah, Ben Reilly offered to swap identities with him so Peter could go do what he had to do. So, for a short while, Peter was wearing the Scarlet Spider identity while Ben was in jail. Should that be included in? Sera404 13:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Spider-Carnage
- merge - Spider-Carnage has no significant appearances outside of Reilly. The character only appeared in 4 SEPARATE COMIC ISSUES! (with the exception of a What if). The character is not a new character, nor is it a significant, IT WAS A PRE-EXISTING CHARACTER, BEN REILLY, BEING POSSESSED. 66.109.248.114 03:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Merge - I agree with the reasons for the merge proposal only with less yelling involved. -- 69.183.15.244 05:54, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Heavy Merge - Robin is a secret identity used by many characters. Plus Spider-Carnage is not a leading character. So merge away--Gonzalo84 06:47, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Heavy Don't Merge - Spider-Carnage will make Ben Reilly's page to long. Plus he should also be placed on the Carnage page as well —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.100.43.41 (talk) 12:20, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Discussion closed. Result was: MERGE -- 69.182.73.240 07:48, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
