Spider-Man The Other: What is this shit?
I really think that the current “Spider-Man: The Other” stories is a big rip-off. Three issues into the storyline and what do we know? Spider-Man is sick. He’s sick with what, they won’t tell us, but it appears to be terminal. You paid $7.50 for three issues to find out the same thing you knew in the first chapter. I don’t get it. In the old days, Spidey could do a lot of shit in three issues: defeat the Master Planner, save Aunt May, and throw a fucking ten ton machine off his back! Compared to this, Ultimate Spider-Man progresses at the speed of light. One good thing: Peter David is writing Spidey again and I’ll think he’ll be great once this cross-over is done. And I love Ringo’s art on Friendly Neighborhood. Let’s just hope Peter doesn’t grow six arms like he did in ASM 101. Nuff said.
