The end all be all issue, right? Well, yes and no... Let me explain.
The issue begins at Xavier's School For Gifted Children, where the X-Men are watching a television report about the going-ons in Queens involving Nick Fury and, evidently Spider-Man. Kitty storms out of the room where everyone is watching television to find Xavier. She finally finds Xavier and Cyclops having a conversation. Finally, Kitty has convinced Cyclops that the X-Men need to help Spider-Man.
We then cut to a scene with Sue Storm, Richard Parker, and May in a hospital. After Richard reacts suspiciously to what is going on, Sue takes a blood sample from him.
Now, finally, we're at Oz. Peter is reasoning with himself... He convinces himself the penalty to kill Ock won't be so bad since he's only a teenager. Fury tries to contain the mayhem, but is put off when the Fantastic Four and Peter consider ways to help MJ. Finally, Reed agrees to take her back to the Baxter Building so that he can find a cure for her... With this, Kaine jumps towards the Thing, wanting only to protect MJ. The Spider-Slayers put him down within seconds and Fury is, again, "on top" of the situation.
Ock steps in and tells Fury that he appreciates what he's doing, but tells him that this isn't his problem. After Spider-Man beat Ock up on television, the United States Government commissioned him to work on a super soldier serum because the CIA resents Fury for having the Ultimates for support. He and Ben Reilly used a blood sample of Peter's to create different kinds for the project. He tells Peter that every bit of destruction or perverse moment in Peter's life was all concieved by him... "Coincidentally".
Ock even reveals that Richard Parker is a clone that has been aged to seem like his father.
Since Peter is at wit's end at this point, he asks Fury to give him ten minutes with the clones and Ock. Ock laughs and tells everyone that Fury isn't at charge and is not in the position to be making such a choice... However, Fury does just as Peter says and leaves, saying that if Ock wants to be in charge, he can be.
Tarantuala strikes his "father" first, asking the rest of the remaining Parker People who wants to hit him first. Peter is struck by a metal pillar out of nowhere and Tarantuala is pinned to a column by a pipe.
Ock says, "It wasn't the arms, Peter!!! It was the metal! I COULD CONTROL THE METAL!!!"
Hmm...
3/5
With all the build up in this arc, I'm a little disappointed with the issue. Still, we've got no explanation as to why Gwen was brought up... As well as a clear explanation as to how Ock and Fury weren't aloud to touch each other. As far as I know, this story's structure is being held up by some kind of thread... A very THIN thread.
