Yep. The way Humanity Agenda ended was a perfect (and possibly intentional) easy out for everything that has happened to "Ben" since his return in Clone Conspiracy. Cos Marvel could just say that he...

So I met in the middle. 4 stars.
Yes.
It is.
I'm not one to get bogged down in canon. All I care about is whether I like something or not, so its status as being an "official" made-up-thing vs an alternate made-up-thing doesn't really make all...
Just watched a review/recap. It's awful. Of course, that much is a given and will come as absolutely no surprise to anyone. But without the spoilers/leaks, I think it might have been even worse....

I'm not sure why it had to be any issues. :(
It's awful.
So much so, it's on the cusp of ruining my enjoyment of Mackay's previous Black Cat runs. All of which I own. Because whenever I look at them now, I fear a part of me is always going...
Yep.
To misquote a quote often misattributed to Einstein, "Naivety is reading the same thing over and over and expecting different results."
Trust me. As someone who only got into Spider-Man books because of Ben and who still considers that Ben my Spidey, there is nothing in your statement that I would consider a slight. You are 100%...
All of this.
I've picked up every MacKay Black Cat trade to date and Iron Cat should be rocking up next week.
When this book was announced, I was conflicted because I didn't wanna miss out on...
Here's to all that came before and none of what came since*
I don't hold out any hope for Ben as far as the current Spidey editorial team go. Frankly, I think they made their feelings clear when...
Seconded.
Even in a better world, where there was just some completely new bland generic villain in this story (as opposed to Not-Ben being written as a bland generic villain), then it still would...

Bad dialogue and maximum 90's edgelordicity.
Honestly, there's no point hating on this book. This isn't Ben. It hasn't been since Clone Conspiracy. It's never acted like Ben, sounded like Ben, nor in any conceivable way has it come even the...
Agreed. Hughie had his Kristoff moment. Job done.
How is it spite to want to see a favourite character treated as the character that made them your favourite in the first place? Your opinion seems to be that, simply because this character was called...
Exactly. There's a whole lot of ludicrous reasoning required to explain why Ben's been an on-and-off homicidal maniac since CC, all of which has veered from implausible to the outright laughable.
...
Nah. This Ben's been an unrecognisable mess since CC. He's never felt like the real Ben, there's been zero good storytelling and on the extremely rare occasions that he was written with perhaps a...
That'll do for me. Current "Ben" has been Spidercide since his return in Clone Conspiracy. And the real Ben remains either gone (which would be sad, but would still be better than everything Marvel...
Quoted for 100% accuracy.
Who knew, huh? That things were actually better for the 20 years that Marvel didn't care about Ben. Which they still don't. Only now they actively care about not caring...
So far, the solo has been OK in itself. But, after the initial rush of getting "our" Jen back, this series has already come to a juddering halt. I just think, on the back of everything Aaron put the...
My expectations were low.
And still it was a magnitude worse than I could have ever possibly expected.
