ASM 800; Readers thoughts **Spoilers**6462

Collector Wraith private msg quote post Address this user
I thought it was great.. Loved it end to end, including spiderman using Norman's ego to get the advantage..

Theres now stories to explore with dock ock, goblin childe / normie, norman/cleetus ( permanent merge of personas?), spidey and venom suit? ( that page when he got mad was awesome), carnage symbiote - is it the end? ( doubt it)

I think normie is going to be a problem for spidey young forward.. Norman Osborne / cleetus could be interesting character too for red goblin v2 at some point (he will come back for sure)

Very satisfied... Might go buy another moebius cover.

Honestly, I kinda hope Goblin Childe ends up being a foe for someone other than Spider-Man. Wouldn't mind seeing him join Miles Morales rogues gallery instead of Peter Parker; or even taking a trip out west to visit Ben Riley & Kaine Parker. Hell, give Mania a series & let Goblin Childe take on primary pain in the butt duties.

There's also the currently-unanswered question of where Venom's new spawn is, whatever happened to Scorn after the Carnage USA arc, or where the Mercury Team/Hybrid symbiotes went after the Deadpool Vs. Carnage arc. Oh, and the Carnage symbiote...where did that merry little rascal run off to?

I didn't know that Ben Reilly was back around.

With the revamp of Hobgoblin, who was one of my fav Spider villains as a kid in the 80's...and the Spider Clone story line also coming back into rotation, which is a double whammy of 80's/90's nostalgia to me, I actually want to read ASM again.

I haven't read ASM on a monthly basis since the mid 1990's.

@CopperAgeKids The new Ben Reilly Scarlet Spider is pretty good. I don't know if its as good as the previous Kaine Parker SS version, but I'm enjoying it. Give it a shot, see how it goes.

Well. I passed on the 2nd print cover as it highlights my one main issue with asm 800.. The weird sticky out eyes on the black suit that were never there before

Third printing though.... Had to order
One of the best spreads of the book

I also agree with many of you that the cover atock was too thin. Everycopy I saw at the LCS had damage in the corners. I was not impressed with the story and most of the Red Goblin part of the artwork. I was also not thrilled about the $9.99 price tag.

All the shop variants are coming in this way too. Unless you ordered a graded 9.8, you ain't getting a 9.8. Doubt they exist in the wild...I will keep looking though.

I've been reading around on the Internet.. Seems some people ( like me) really loved this issue while others did not

I've read it a couple of times now. :P.. Art through whole book was great I thought.
