I trust Dan Slott to bring this story home, and I want to be there when he does. I guess what bugs me more than anything is this whole idea that, This is The End, there's no more Spider-Man when, clearly, this was NOT the end. This was either the beginning or the ending of Act Two.<br /><br />On the other hand, Danno E.

Spidey...I think you captured the thirtysomething voices of America, not least of all is Stephen Wacker (editor) saying that if you don't like the Spider story, you're a 43+ fan and we don't need you anyways. (seriously, the CBR forum is filled with his zingers).<br /><br />The Hunger Games reviews are interesting. I found that I liked the trilogy a lot more after being away from it for a while. And I'm not ashamed to admit that, almost in the same way that I'm not interested in reading a Doc Ock lead Spider-man, I actually almost didn't read the last two books because of how Katness was dogging Peeta at the end of book 1 and for most of book 2. I don't think he's a very deep character, but I guess he was the one I identified with? And I guess I didn't want to read about Katness dogging out my boy! :P <br /><br />I thought the tension with the unknown was really cool and I think Suzanne Collins wrote some stuff on child soldiers in Africa before Hunger games, for what that's worth. I don't mind saying either that that scary unknown factor is something that I've bitten in my own little fantastic tale as well. ;)<br /><br />Anyways, loved today's piece, as usual.

I mean, like Slott's writing a LOT, but...Yeah. I mean, like Slott's writing a LOT, but it just kind of hurt how this broke off at the end. But we'll see. I also thought Spider Island was a stupid idea... Until it wasn't. Danno E.

In all honesty, it would be so much more clever to follow Peter Parker in Dr. Octopus's body, especially since no writer was interested in writing the dying Doc as anything but the desperate lunatic. Instead of a Kraven's Last Hunt, Slott's chosen a Clone Saga.Tony Laplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07854455859399339169noreply@blogger.com
