Marvel | Spider-Man | X-Men | NEW!! DC Comics | Batman | Superman | Wonder Woman
Can't say I ever had it on my pull list to drop it in the first place, but it's been a wild ride following its progress regardless.
At this point, the whole run has been like a weird case of MadLibs, and nothing really phases me. They could reveal literally anybody is the new Goblin - make it Gwen, Aunt May, Paul, Paul Stacy, Paul the Gorilla, etc. - and it would have the same "meh" impact on me because at this point I expect random nonsense and equally random conclusions and actions to unfold.
That said, I'm not a cynic, and I always root for a comic to surprise and delight me in unexpected ways. I wouldn't bet on it, but I'm certainly open to it. Even after 45+ issues of letdown.

I wonder if maybe we get a merged Norman personality, kind of like the Professor Hulk. He still feels the guilt and wants to do good, while the Goblin persona allows him to be unpredictable with occasional manic intensity. He would be like DC's Creeper.
Aaaand it's Peter. Again.

Truly the bastions of originality.
I'm more perplexed they JUST did a "Peter infected with Goblin Sins" story a few months ago and wrapped it up.
Everything seems to just be repeating, but with shorter and shorter cycles.

They're revealing everything besides Chasm: Curse of Kaine
In all seriousness though. How is originality this dead? Like, seriously?
There is no bottom. You think they’ve reached the bottom, then they tell the same bad story twice. There is genuinely no depths of suck this run will not plumb. Good god
