Yeah, I understood Felicia was mad after what Ock (usurping Spidey's ID) did to her. But I expected that she, knowing Spider-Man for years and how his identity has been stolen several times (Venom, Mysterio, Chameleon, Kraven...), she would have realized the jerk who ruined her was another Spider-Impostor. How could she believe it was the real Spider-Man?
Amazing #10, the end of the hiest arc also had Felicia explain that not being able to remember who Spider-Man was under the mask was also kinda messing with her mind. But yeah, like most I was just happy that the queenpin part of her character is gone hopefully forever. Like the previous poster I will always be thankful to Spencer for giving us back the real Felicia.

Honestly I think it was mostly a way for Spencer to try and justify some of the awful things she did during her run as a full on villain. The hiest arc (Amazing 8-10) was a very fun Spider-Man and Black Cat team up. Peter unmasking for her again at the end was easily my favorite comic moments of recent memory.
Baby got back...he he...okay another nice piece of Felicia art...
I totally agree with you. Issue #10 is hands down my favourite issue of Spidey that Nick Spencer has written. The unmasking was done beautifully and it finally gave us back the Felicia we know and love. I've got some big reservations with the pacing of ASM at present, but Nick will always get kudos for me for that particular arc.
It also didn't help that Felicia no longer knowing/remembering the man behind Spider-Man's mask reset her previous character development and given how volatile she could be in the early comics where she appeared, without the emotional maturity and tempering that knowing (and coming to love) Peter Parker brought her, well, going completely off the rails after a seeming betrayal by the "Superior" Spider-Man wasn't entirely out of the question, even if her subsequent actions --- including nearly killing innocent people to "reclaim what was hers" --- were a bridge too far. In any event, count me in as one of the many happy that Spencer had Peter and Felicia finally reconcile by way of Peter re-revealing himself to her, and looking forward to the Black Cat issue coming this week.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Crazy second issue Felicia got so many upgrades and her rant on the symbiote was so true. I don't remember if Slott was the one who brought back the Spider moblile but nice to see it again. Peter needs to get his car back. Looks like this arc should end next issue

I was not expecting Asgard Felicia.
Anti-Venom Felicia honestly looked like more like a Spider than a cat...
I wonder how Felicia would look in a Spidey related outfit...

i dont know about you but Im really enjoying the Spider-titles as the same as the Mutant titles that been going one today, between Black cat, Miles, Amazing, Venom(hope who ever follow Cates will be great) and then the X-titles of HIckman era
