    Does it feel like the current writer of the event that he set up 2 years ago kind of gave up or is just put in a little effort as possible? Wonder when his TV show he is running takes precedent over ASM

    Wasn't Fisk in X-Men and Mary in Realm of X? Did I miss something?

    Realm of x ended so Mary and Fisk met offscreen

    It's been feeling that way for most of this run.

    This event particularly it seems like it's missing something that Dark Web had

    And Dark Web was pretty lame by itself

    At this point, they should've made the event in it's own seperate title and not in ASM.

    So...spoilers:
    How is the Kingpin Vs Tombstone fight? I love it when Romita Jr. draws Kingpin and wonder if there are some good shots during the fight?

    Well, he got to beat Venom (kind of) but that was pretty much the most he did, the rest was Rek-Rap, Chasm, Maddie, Kamala, Norman, etc.

    This issue of The Amazing Tombstone #41 was pretty dang good.

    -----

    For context, there's nothing inherently wrong with making the main character of a book the POV side-character for an arc, but the problem through this run is its felt like Peter has been running in place on a hamster wheel. And we're 40+ issues deep now. And for what its worth, I like what Wells is actually doing with Tombstone. If this was main driving force of the run, not the Mary Jane drama or Ben Reilly getting thrown under the bus I think it'd be better receive. People would still complain yeah, but that happens in every run.
