Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider Appreciation 2021

[James Hunter]

Correct, but a few minor nitpicks (sorry…). Jessica was the daughter of the burglar, not the niece, Ben died in PP:SM #75, and a few of the Daily Grind cast members did appear in a few sporadic issues after his death (during the post-clone saga era, but that stopped cold once the Byrne/Mackie relaunch began). But besides that, indeed. Time for a comeback!

I don't mind the corrections, even as I typed niece it didn't feel right to be honest. I always regretted that the Daily Grind cast were whittled out though.

I read The Clone Conspiracy recently and I feel like retroactively offering my condolences, that guy really didn't seem to bear much resemblance to Ben.

Wells on Ben "So he’s almost a more inspiring character because he’s still trying to do good, even though life has really, really beat him up…We’re really trying to do right by him.”

Hope they delve into that w/ the Kraven thing w/ the trip he will get, because he hasn't shown much of being uncomfy w/ the corp or high life in contrast to Janine

I think that'll be interesting to read. A clone for a clone, right?

So many characters are clones now. It’s kinda crazy.

It is a crazy world, even more so now.

An easy way to resurrect characters, in Ben's case he was always one so he gets a pass. Superboy too

How come no one has posted this yet? The second variant cover in particular is cool as it references a lot of stories and enemies unique to Ben (Spider-Carnage, Looter with his meteorite, Joystick, Stunner, Lady Ock, 90s Jackal of course, etc.).

I love Joystick. Seriously. She'd be great as Ben's version of Black Cat, although even more amoral in her thrill-seeking antics than Felicia, who is usually portrayed as having some ethical standards.
