Superior Spider-Man #2 Review |
2 / 5
As we continue into the 2nd issue of the Superior Spider-Man, Doc Oc is spending the issue focusing on perfecting his Peter Parker game by romancing Mary Jane. The issue continues the formula of an obnoxious form of Peter Octopus Parker playing around while ghost Peter Parker screams for Doc Oc to stop. So far nothing particularly exciting has come of this storyline. In reality this is Marvel saying, "Wouldn't it be cool if…" with the Spider-Man line. I still have another 2 issues on my desk so I'm not going to give up on this series yet, but I don't see any reason to invest more time in this unless you're a long-time Spidey fan and just can't get enough of this kind of stuff.
On a side note - I want to point out that this is another Marvel Now book that calls on previous books more than I'd like. This fact is also tainting my view of the book. I don't know who MJ's friend is, but she's apparently very important to what led to this event as well as how this event will ultimately be resolved. I know Wikipedia's out there, but I still think an opportunity was missed on Marvel's part to make their lines accessible.
