Spider-Woman #16 - SPOILERS

[Seren]

I'm typing this from my phone, I apologize in advance for typos and many edits that are likely to come.

The issue is from Roger's point of view...while we get his internal dialogue of how awesome Jess is, there's a ton of action.
Jess is kicking ass and also getting her ass kicked.
Roger loves that Jess treats him as an equal and wises up to the fact that he's her sidekick and helps Jess out by throwing old Hobby off the balance.
They all crash and Jess and Roger smooch before getting ready to go for another round with Hobgoblin(who is actually pretty impressed by Jessica s tenacity).
Carol shows up and blows Hobgoblin and his cronies up, all the while making this grand speech about how she doesn't care that Jess is mad at her and begging Jess for forgiveness..
Only to have her moment of redemption ruined because Roger and Jess have resumed making out ( though Jess is grateful if the thumbs up is any of indication).
Carol seems to be somewhere between happy for Jess and a bit put out that her moment was...overshadowed?

I'm a bit torn..I am happy for Jess and Roger cause god knows Jess deserves a win. But I was really kinda hoping for Carol and Jess to hug it was out. Otherwise, fantastic issue...Fish nailed the action and Rosenberg the colors. Can't wait (and also dreading because it's the last issue) to see how Hopeless wraps it all up next month.

Carol seems to be somewhere between happy for Jess and a bit put out that her moment was...overshadowed?

I interpreted it more like, "Wow. I seem to be interrupting a make-out session with I guy I didn't know you had a thing with. Awkward..."

I really want to read this comic.

The ending took me by surprise and made me laugh out loud and the fights until that point were great.

Can't ask for more

It's good to see a happy ending for a change .

I died laughing with the scene of Carol and her face when she realized that Jess was busy with something else but she appreciated her help .

I really liked the stone kicking part, it's an oldschool cliche but it just fits the tone really well

Something like this. I wonder...

[SplinteringHeart]

An all round great issue...Jess was suitably grateful.."oh thank gawwd!"

The ending was just right, Jess was thankful to Carol (the thumbs up), and will be friends again, it's just she was a bit busy first in the moment with her man.....it's good that it was handled this way, good that it wasn't an unreserved reconciliation with Carol...but a reconciliation it is...and funny too, as mentioned, to see Carol slightly perplexed about Roger..

And on the rescue by Carol, that was well done, well timed...we saw that Jess is so tough, and determined, but also she was in a bad way from previous assaults, and needed a little help from her friend...a plot device to clear up the Jess n Carol thing, and just a realistic scenario for it to happen...

Well done all working on the book...shame it's coming to an end...roll on #17, for at least more of a happy ending...

You really need to read it Winterboy.

Lets just tell it like it is - Carol is jealous that Jess is kissing Roger instead of her! LOL

I was pretty happy with this issue, but a bit put out that after all the angst over Bruce Banner's death a few issues back Jess just fires off a quick thumbs up. Seriously?! I mean - wow, feelings like a ping pong ball bouncing around. Weird, and I don't get that at all. It's not she was blaming Carol for wrecking her car, a man DIED! And Carol did act like a Galactus sized jerk and still has not apologized.

Yeah, I don't get that at all.

But if I ignore most of the final two pages, this was pretty damn good. Love the way Roger talks about Jess and her too stubborn to fall down attitude. It's a shame they don't have more issues to explore what his ex-wife said about this commitment issues.
