ASM V2 17
Man this is weird. “He’s fought the Sinister Six all at once, and now Spider-Man’s going to have to fight them… in various smaller groups!” Seems like it should be the other…

I believe it’s now officially the year 2000. That feels momentous on my journey through time, getting to the 2000s. Story is credited to “John Byrne and Howard Mackie” this month, so…
