Ugh, horrible writing of MJ here, she'd be telling Moira to go F herself and not be so subservient.

She literally has her hand around her neck that can kill her if she fights back

The villain outright says she doesn't trust her grunts not to return the arm to her body. Moira is an idiot.

I want to believe Wells is going to write one big redeeming moment for MJ where she takes charge and kicks but...but somehow I doubt it.

Also the new costume continues to look silly. Like, balls on his arms? Why?

Feels like Wells would rather be writing another X-Book.

The balls are supposed to be nano-spider grenades or something like that. Beyond that, it reminds me of his Ricochet costume, though I will admit to the suit design being better without them.

Moira literally tells her that she doesn't trust her men to do the job of taking her back to her body.

"Name's Gateway, and his work speaks for itself" is so Claremont-esque that I can't help but love it. The rest of the preview is pretty meh, which is part for the course in modern ASM

[Hypestyle]

again with the magic aborigine tropes.. ah well..

It's very sus that Mary Jane doesn't shoot the the robot attached to her neck in the first two pages of the comic.

That's because she doesn't have wrist control

A) Not the first two pages of the comic; the first pages were in a previous (unlettered) preview and are a recap of the Hellfire Gala.

B) Nah, it's not sus that Wells is writing her OOC as a helpless damsel; that's been his consistent depiction of her since he started writing Spider-Man comics. And Duggan also wrote her incredibly OOC in Hellfire Gala. Basically, this arc is one big sexist depiction of MJ as a mostly inanimate, agency-less object to be rescued used soley to made Spidey sad and angry, some of the worst writing for her since Dan Slott made her sit passively in a fire waiting for rescue, which has to be a nadir in sexist stereotype depictions of MJ - it's kinda pathetic MJ has been given her most cliched sexist depiction in the 21st century. Hopefully Jed Mackay will do a much more character accurate job in the Mary Jane and Black Cat: Dark Web miniseries.

Even more sus! Two separate previews and Mary Jane hasn't defeated the villain yet?

Very sexist, Zeb Wells would never write Peter Parker in dire straits like this.
