So! Spider-Man has woken up on a plane. He begins calling out to see who\u2019s there, and, I mean, obviously\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single most brutal thing to ever happen to a Spider-Man? Maybe! Man, that hurts just reading it. Ock proceeds to psychoanalyze and patronize Peter for awhile, insulting his dead dad, calling him a gloryhound who only plays at being a hero for attention, and assuring him he will die tonight, while also ranting about how great his life should be if not for people like Peter and Norman Osborn. Then he flashes back to tell Peter how they got on this plane, which is an unusually old school move. He put his arms on the cab driver who was filming the fight, and walked that guy out through some smoke to get brutally executed by the authorities. Then the arms went on a rampage destroying cop cars and diverting attention while Ock snuck out with the unconscious Spider-Man. Ock and his arms rendezvoused at a car they could steal out of an alley and took off. Drove to the airport, hijacked a plane, and here we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, then. Meanwhile, a lonely and very suspicious Gwen is sitting alone on the front stoop of the Parker home. Then she goes inside, down to Peter\u2019s basement, and breaks open a locked chest with a hammer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As if our boy didn\u2019t have enough going badly right now! It\u2019s kinda crazy Bendis picked this story, which, presumably, everyone hoped would have extra eyes on it due to that movie, to really put Peter through the wringer. I don\u2019t think Marvel had a book or writer better equipped to do something fans of the movies might enjoy, but I\u2019m not sure it\u2019s this\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
