So, Spidey’s still sinking in quicksand. As he’s been wont to do, Roy has the last bit of dialogue from last issue repeat on the splash here. Then there’s a one-page recap…

ASM 103
So, to answer the question from last post about when Marvel Comics would go back to 32 pages from 52, the answer is “immediately.” Like, this issue. That’s weird. Chaos in the…

Ah, back to normal on covers. There’s a few more reprints in the future (3, in fact), but otherwise, we’re looking at the real things again for a good, long while. Unfortunately,…

ASM 091
This issue kicks off with the funeral for George Stacy. With Gwen’s Mom already out of the picture, Gwen is all alone in the world now. And she blames Spider-Man for that….
