Knew this was going to happen. The second film is around the corner.

Still, it's surprising how high the numbers went for a book that was starring Doctor Octopus.

As much as I love Peter (When characterized loyally), Ock
as Peter arc has been the most entertaining and
interesting stuff published by the company in nearly 20
years.

I'll agree that it was entertaining for sure, but I feel like it's gone on long enough. Dan Slott really does care for the characters and the history and he took a gamble with this story and tried something different. If he had kept going with it, then we would have had a problem.

Doctor Octopus as Peter Parker should only work for so long. This is a book about Peter Parker and it should remain so. Either way, I loved how Dan has slowly used the entire gallery of rogues and supporting characters in his run.

Of course it should be. The unfortunate aspect of this is
that I love Slott's run and the twist here. His characters
in this arc intrigue and leave an emotional reaction from
me that his run with Peter never achieved.

And isn't the clone aka Scarlett Spider been on stand by during all of this? And isn't the 2099 Spider-man around too? So anyone think that a another body swap is the works? I can't see Marvel letting go of this idea so easily.
