The new stories in Amazing are just bad.
I am re-reading Ditko/Lee Spider-man.
I forgot how awesome Spider-man was!
the fantastic four part of this is weird because their book seems to be ignoring this whole mad at peter thing same as daredevil. johnny in the last issue of ff was telling sue how he teamed up with peter while they've been gone during there own 6 month time skip.
That still doesn't explain the way they treated Peter when this storyline started. Everybody should understand what pressure he was under. But one can tell the faster Peter pushes himself the more likely he will make mistakes and make things worse.
How many of you sense that?

MJ worked for Tony; Tony would drop anything to help MJ, as was shown in MJ & BC: Dark Web #1. Even if Tony suddenly became a mindless obeyer of the Feds like Cap, Ben and Johnny were OOC turned into when it comes to Peter, he would instantly leap in to save MJ's life.
But yeah, right, sure, Peter was forced to steal from Tony. :rolleyes
Ignoring this mess is absolutely the right thing to do. Based Ryan North.

You can tell it's Ms Marvel because Wells name-drops New Jersey at the top of the page.
Putting the pieces together, Kamala's story in ASM is something like this:
- Six months ago, she finds Peter Parker and Norman Osborn up to shady business at night in a warehouse in New Jersey.
- Either through her own initiative or through the Avengers, Kamala becomes an intern at Oscorp to (1) spy on Osborn and Parker, (2) further her career.
- Kamala works with Peter in the engineering division under Osborn.
- This gives her potential access to Oscorp suits, such as the Gold Goblin suit she was scoping out when Osborn caught her.
I assume when things start to escalate (such as during the present day return of Rabin), she'll either suit up as Ms Marvel to join the fight or she'll call in the Avengers.
Wells had a similar arc for Empath in Hellions - he was a spy who intentionally got himself drafted into the Hellions to spy on Mister Sinister and keep an eye on Havok.
Is it completely unimaginable that Wells uses Kamala in his run because he is a fan of the character? Because that's my leading assumption.
What do we mean by Kamala is 'useless'? Her presence in Peter's life right now is as a fellow intern, because that's what Peter knows her as and since the book follows Peter's perspective.
When Kamala starts making more overt moves, we'll see more of her superhero side. We saw her join the fight during Dark Web, for instance.
That's because this flashback arc is set during the last quarter of Dan Slott's FF run - Johnny's stuck in permanent flame mode and the FF are still living in the Baxter Building, neither of which is the case for the current run.
We also know that Johnny doesn't hold a grudge against Peter - Wells himself established this in ASM 1 when the Johnny came to check up on his friend Peter (though Peter didn't reciprocate at the time).
North's FF run takes place ~1.5 years in-universe since this incident, so why would it even come up?
In between the crisis the FF are in now, would Johnny really be like: "Remember a couple of years ago, when a distressed Peter tried to force his way into your lab, Reed?"
Yeah, if Kamala doesn't have her own book, you'd think she'd end up in either Captain Marvel (Carol's supposed to be her mentor), or Miles Morales: Spider-Man (he's her best friend in the Champions team). Instead she ends up in Amazing Spider-Man.
Of course this isn't Kamala's first internship. In Danny Lore's short run on Champions, Kamala sent Miles and Sam Alexander into Roxxon as interns, to find evidence of their involvement in CRADLE and Kamala's Law. Sam was about to be fired, so he told their boss he knew Kamala Khan, who the anti-child superhero law had made famous in her civilian identity. Kamala was thus blackmailed into joining Roxxon too. However, their plan succeeded, Roxxon was exposed, the whole division was shut down and the other Champions were able to rejoin those three, Viv, and Riri to celebrate. Devil's Reign happened soon after though, which ended with ALL superheroes banned in New York (which seems to have resulted in the team going on hiatus - only Scarlet Witch's book, when Viv guested, has shown any indication of them still being a team), and that was quickly followed by Kamala joining Oscorp.
