    Ultimate Spider-Man #108 discussion (spoilers)

    The art... eh. I was hopeful two issues ago when Kitty was reintroduced, (because, when he's on the ball, Bagley draws a damn foxy Kitty,) but now it's descended to the level of the worst of the Clone Saga, (the nigh-incoherent battle with Doc Ock.) I have no real beef with the arc thus far...

    Ultimates #13 is Done

    I appreciate the fact that the Demonic beings behind the main action sport Horns similar to the 616 version of Loki. Not sure of what to think of the Urak-Hai/Turok-Han army though. Granted, they ran out of people to fight last issue, but a bit more imagination would be greatly appreciated. An...

    Ultimate Spider-Man #107 Discussion (spoilers)

    I think I get way too involved in the science of the Ultimate Universe. Daredevil is striking me as more of a Batman character in this particular incarnation... a master manipulator, always two steps ahead. And to top it off, his little group might just be a tool for a personal vendetta. I...

    30 Days of Night. Ben Templesmith at his best:-D -The Matt Again, any thoughts?

    Ultimate Spider-Man #107 Discussion (spoilers)

    The sad thing, is I can see how the whole Demogoblin thing isn't over yet - as hideous as the change was, it shouldn't be over yet... allow me to explain. 1) Harry was the Hobgoblin. 2) Harry was in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody for a good chunk of the book's run, extensively tested, (Fury even...

    Ultimate Spider-Man #105 discussion (Spoilers!)

    Kitty Pryde... dumped in no words... I think her slow descent into the background said it all. It saddens me, because it was the most exciting thing to me in recent memory. It reminded me of when the book was in it's first days, when everything was so new and exciting and Bendis hadn't soured on...

    Ultimate Spiderman #102 discussion (Spoilers)

    A minor note... I just got a glimpse of the cover to #105... damn. I'm a fan of the whole Kitty/Peter dynamic, and she's just been thrown by the wayside for a good chunk of this arc.

    Ultimate Spiderman #102 discussion (Spoilers)

    I wasn't too far off with my 'Hulk-Lite' comment, was I? After the last issue, I was torn about the series in general. I felt that Bendis had hit upon a novel concept, but was growing a little lazy in the execution. Gwen's metamorphosis into not!Carnage and regression, Mary's own...

    Ultimate Spiderman #101 discussion (Spoilers)

    Of course, mainlining the OZ would bring a whole host of problems with it. Even Norman's was modified for his transformations, so just shooting her up with the pure stuff could screw her up. It hasn't been seen in the book what the effects are for the pure stuff. It also seemed to me, (but...

    Ultimate Spiderman #101 discussion (Spoilers)

    Once more, with feeling. I've had time to sit with this a marinate for a while. I've just barely caught up with everything that's been going on since I last posted, so instead of color commentary about Bendis' Board, I think I'll post what I got out of this issue. I'm sitting here with the...

    Hmm... well, mediocre-to-bad issue aside, it's nice to have guessed right on at least one count. Demogoblin indeed. -M.J.R.

    Ultimate Spiderman #101 discussion (Spoilers)

    Gwen as not!CARNAGE? I got over it about a week ago. Mary's transformation intrigues me though, but not in a good way. I'm feeling that this mammoth Clone Saga Arc is just building up to Death of a Goblin. 101 issues, a monumental thing... and it's wasted as a build-up to the next arc. What...

    Ultimate Spider-Man #100 Discussion (SPOILERS!)

    Hmm... I've had time to marinate with the issue for a couple of days now, and toy with a few ideas I had. Towards the end of the conversation, (just before Nick arrived with his army of H.E.R.B.I.E's-on-'roids,) I think Richard knew the jig was up and almost told Peter what he wanted to know...

    Ultimate Spider-Man #100 Discussion (SPOILERS!)

    I'm still trying to think up ways to save Gwen as a character. Perhaps Richard managed to bond Carnage with her, (although that still leaves his motives pretty ambiguous - he could pull the I-Did-It-To-Save-Her-Life Card, but in all honesty I think he did just to see what would happen.)...
