Ten thousand grandpa symbiote players of Civ 4 to storm New York at Carnage’s command.

They can't print gamer word in comics, so they can't accurately represent it

I miss when comics would explain every character’s powers every issue. Because I do not understand why Scarlet Spider has a single Wolverine claw.

Long story short, Spider-Man's powers had a mystical element to them, Kaine-Scarlet Spider ended up basically inheriting all the mystical elements while Peter kept the basic poo poo, so he could pop out 'stingers' for some reason.

I still can't believe the angsty, evil clone version of Spider-Man had his own on-going, that it lasted 25 freaking issues when Marvel can't have anything reach more than 6 these days before cancelation, and that it managed to be pretty drat good, even leaving me hoping for more.

Just once I'd like to ask a question about Spider-Man that makes me want to read the current book.

I mean technically it hasn’t happened yet but I think it’s going down in the next issue. The last issue dealt with Queen Goblin (not to be confused with Goblin Queen who also has been involved in the Ben story) trying to put a whammy on Ben and Peter showed up to save him. And future covers have Peter as a Goblin on them so I’m kinda just putting the pieces together myself here.

I just learned recently that when Zeb Wells was writing all that Peter/MJ/Whatever his name was junk, he was going through a divorce. A divorce from his wife who's a Saturday Night Live actress.
