I'm kinda bummed about the ending to this week's Superior Spider-Man. I think the book's been really great, so I hope the ending doesn't stick or is a fakeout of some kind.

I hope it's a fakeout, it seems out of character for Otto to ask a higher (or lower) power for help. That seems like a scrub-tier Spider-Man move.

Ok, what’s going on with Superior? And is Venom Island that island that he fought Darkhawk on and faked his death?

Norman (from another earth) kidnaps a kid and says he'll kill him unless Otto visibly and undeniably kills three innocent people on camera. Otto decides he can't beat Norman, but maybe the man he once was can, so he calls Mephisto, and the only deal Mephisto will accept is where Otto reverts to his old self permanently. We never see Otto actually accept the deal, so I really hope it's a fakeout, but the last page is classic Doc Ock beating up thugs. So I really hope we're not three for three on Spider-men making deals with Mephisto.

Hopefully it’s a fakeout, and they’re playing with the OMD parallels. I guess it’s an alternate universe Norman because the regular one is busy in ASM.

As opposed to "dude is inside a building that blows up. Does he survive?"

From my knowledge, the Superior Spider-Man comic isn't ending, so I highly doubt Otto would just be the old Doc Ock again on a permanent basis because...then no Superior Spider-Man. Let's also not forget that the Clone Conspiracy sort of kicked this off, so clones.

It is ending. (no solicits in November) I do think this is a good way of playing on comic book readers' expectations. In literally any other type of media I think it would be very obviously a fakeout. In superhero comics? As far as we know, the book is ending, and we all know that Marvel and DC love finding ways to reset characters to status quo, so now it's a toss-up. My guess is also clones, yeah, so they can have their cake and eat it. There should be a scene where he says something like "yeah i realized that in order to be a hero I could never assent to a deal with literally the devil" then Peter and Miles go "oh uhm agreed".

I mean, one way to explain classic Ock showing up (if it's not Mephisto's deal) might be Otto using the Stunner gear to impersonate his old self (he's done it before, after all).

Apparently it was always meant to be a 12-issue story, though. So was FNSM, but apparently that got a few extra issues due to high sales.

El Tortuga posted:Who? Oh! You must mean Spiders-Man. So when you get Peter, Miles, PBP, Ben Reilly (does he still count?), etc., are they collectively Spiders Man without the hyphen, like courts martial? I tried to ask JJJ but he just gave me that same old slander/libel rant, so I slowly backed out of the room while discretely breaking eye contact.

Yeah, Nick Spencer is a terrible writer, I'm suspicious of everyone saying nice things about his Spider-Man, I'm sure something terrible is about to happen.

Spencer's Spider-man has been thoroughly ok. Seemed like a bit of fresh air after Slott's last too many years, but Spencer's run is just as mediocre as anything in Dan's run.

That's exactly it. I hope its like their Star Wars line, some adaptions and some original material. Also Abnett is probably the most well known writer of Warhammer books, so i'd not be surprised to see him come back and do stuff.

I'm really digging Spencer's ASM, but that might just be because I'm a ride-or-die Peter/MJ shipper. I feel like Spencer really gets the characters. Speaking of Spidey, both Black Cat & Spider-Verse are out tomorrow! Big day for Vulpes Vulpes. Also Marvel Comics #1001, which at least includes a one-page Renew Your Vows story, too.
