I believe Superior Foes had a retcon saying he was doing an Australian accent as part of an act to play up the Boomerang motif, as he was funded by the Secret Empire to become a villian after a botched baseball career.
Lizard went from full monster post-shed to once again the Good Connors side and Evil Lizard side, post-Hunted.
Rhino turns heel after Spidey abandons him when they team up together against Taskmaster and Black Ant, pre-Hunted.
Norman becomes the Green Goblin in full form for the first time since... Ellis Thunderbolts way back in 2007, in ASM #49. Hes been a Iron Patriot, Super-Adaptoid, Goblin King, Red Goblin, and Carnage over the past decade but the Ravencroft arc was the first time he was back to proper Green Goblin.
Ock is helming his own Sinister Six and puppeteered by Kindred for the upcoming Sinister War event in July, was teased a few issues ago and properly announced by Marvel shortly after.

Kingpin wanting to bring Vanessa back to life (before choosing to bring Richard back) is weird since there have been at least two other occasions when someone brought her back from the dead (The Hand once, and The Jackal another time), and Fisk rejected the reanimated Vanessa both times. Back-from-dead Vanessa is not his real wife, he believed.
I thought it was rather surprising but in a good way because i expected him to bring her back but then it turns out Harry's encounter with him shook him up enough to bring his son back so that will be interesting to see.
Also i don't think Boomerang will be very happy to remain a villain after spending so much time with Peter and Randy and Gog.
It's going to be interesting to see the Rose/Richard Fisk meet the Kingpin's illegitimate son and his brother Butch. One has to wonder if they will be rivals or will team up to take on their pops.
Well, that's the other big problem. Vanessa Fisk's dying wish was *most definitely NOT* for her son to be alive again. It was for Kingpin and Daredevil to be out of jail and fighting each other in perpetuity since in her mind, that is a fate worse than death or prison; she would not want to see Richard alive and involved in the cycle of crime again. So, this is pretty shoddy editorial work here, in other words.
Normally, I wouldn't care that much about editorial mistakes, but this one just so happens to hit one of my favorite runs, which is Brubaker's Daredevil.
Which is a real shame, honestly. At least he seems to regret it, so maybe he and Spidey will meet again under better terms.
Fair point, although I would argue that a huge part of what drove Vanessa's enmity toward Fisk and Matt/Daredevil was having to kill her own son to protect Fisk, so in a twisted way, I'd take Richard Fisk's resurrection as Wilson Fisk trying to make amends to Vanessa for what his blood feud with Daredevil did to her and their relationship. Not to mention that, as Kindred put it, "What makes you think she'd want to come back to you?" I'd also think that was Spencer at least respecting that aspect of Brubaker's Daredevil, even if he came at it from a somewhat different angle or took it to a different conclusion.
The spider is always on the hunt.
