Another Jason Pearson cover randomly appears. Been awhile since his other ones. Matt Milla is still coloring this month. Maybe he\u2019s the new permanent colorist, I don\u2019t recall. To open, Peter & Mary Jane are at a restaurant with a really annoying waiter. When he leaves, Mary Jane broaches the topic that she wants to get back to work. She put her career on hold for a bit while they got their lives back together, but it\u2019s time. But that would mean traveling, and she wants to make sure that won\u2019t \u201ctear them apart again.\u201d Given how things went before, a reasonable concern, I think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our man in the beret there is one Leo Zelinksy, a tailor, whose current client seems to be some kind of hitman, but he doesn\u2019t seem to mind. At least, not in front of the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think Leo\u2019s gonna get involved. He gets up, looks at that photo, gets dressed and heads out into the night. Where Spider-Man is also doing his thing. He\u2019s internal monologuing about how nothing\u2019s going on and he should probably go home, but as soon as he did, something would happen, when Leo yells up at him. Spidey comes down to be told that someone, probably the District Attorney, is going to be killed tomorrow at an awards ceremony. Spidey asks how he knows, and Leo asks if they can go somewhere to talk. They wind up in a deli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leo talks about how he\u2019s done a lot of superheroes since, with quick flashbacks to Mar-vell and Captain America, but then others started to show up. We\u2019re shown him doing Dr. Doom\u2019s cape, which is just ridiculous (Is there a situation JMs won\u2019t inappropriately use Doom for?). When Spider-Man challenges him on helping villains, he says everyone\u2019s got to wear clothes. We find out he worked with the Blob and with Thor before Spider-Man wants him to get to the point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kinda funny. Peter tucks the mask into his mouth, thinking about the velcro, and sees Venom in the mirror and gives it up. Then we jump ahead to the awards ceremony, where the DA is giving a speech, little knowing he\u2019s in the sights of Killshot, when said sights are covered web and his gun is yanked from his hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nice & tidy. Two single-issue stories in a row. Kinda feels weird in this day and age.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
