Interested to see what comes next! Also digging the art by Todd Nauck...was never really into his Spidey work in the past, but this story seems to work for his style.
"He's pure power and doesn't even know it. He's the best of us."-Matt Murdock
"I need a reason to take the mask off."-Peter Parker
"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
still strange seeing Betty going crazy over Ned after cheating on the guy twice

“Guess what? I brainwashed the guy who brainwashed the guy!!!”
“Please notice how cool I am now. Even though I’m like the 12th different goblin introduced.”
I wonder when they talk to the editor and say something like…” No. No. This is the Mauve Goblin.”
If they high five each other and think they’ve invented the wheel or something.
I don’t know which storyline I’m looking forward to ending more…this one or the X-Men.
So just to be clear, spider is aware something nefarious happened to both Ben and Dr Kafka, but he has no empathy/concern for Ben (far as I remember from dark web) and he just never gave a rip about Dr Kafka. Someone who was a close/trusted civilian friend to Spider-Man. (Yes a clone but a clone with Kafka’s memories)
Spidey’s been a hot head but post OMD he has been spectacularly inconsistent with loyalty. I guess it’s just easier to skip to the fighting that way.
Something similar happened during Brand New Day.
Maine returned and Peter was immediately antagonistic to Kaine. Problem is the last time Peter saw Kaine, Kaine had just admitted to killing the Salt Lake City detective and went to prison. Immediately after, Kaine was killed by Spider-Cide while Kaine was helping Ben. Kaine was a villain at the time, but he had nothing but respect for Peter. Then BND made it so they were both antagonistic to each other
So with Janine joining the Blood Hunters. How do Ben and Janine split?
