Very touchy this month. This issue gets rolling with Spider-Man tricking the Corruptor into crashing into a water tower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ok, I had to look it up. I knew that guy\u2019s name was the Controller. But they were calling him Corruptor last issue. Apparently there\u2019s also a guy called Corruptor in this gang, too. Very confusing. Well, Controlly there falls off the roof, which, nearby, makes the small army of regular people he was controlling to attack the U-Foes stop doing so. Vector flies up and finds Spider-Man tangoing with Mr. Fear, then sees SHIELD choppers coming in, and rounds up his guys to flee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This may be inessential comics, but this team does a good Spider-Man. Particularly Garcia, his Spidey is dynamic and cool looking, with the classic, pre-McFarlane feel that is coming back into vogue in this era. Down on the street, Controller wakes up and takes control of 2 cops there to investigate, making them his getaway. Up on the roof, Spider-Man is trying to interrogate Mr. Fear, but he\u2019s too Mr. Afraid, and then Iron Man shows up. And he\u2019s not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone knows Cap\u2019s mask doesn\u2019t cover his nose. He\u2019s not Batman and it looks weird. Chris Bachalo did this while drawing the Captain America title, it was vexing. Spider-Man struggling to accept his place on a team is a good angle. Elsewhere, Controller shows up at Crossfire\u2019s gang\u2019s hideout. They need an easy name like U-Foes. I\u2019m gonna call them the C-Boys since they got Crossfire, Controller, Corruptor, etc. I mean, they also have Mandrill, it ain\u2019t perfect, but whatever. Controlly tells them what happened, including Mr. Fear getting caught, and Crossfire says no big loss, but they better move in case he talks. They\u2019re apparently trying to keep the U-Foes from finding \u201cher.\u201d Meanwhile, Cap and Spidey have gone to the Raft to look into the super-beef. A guy tells them the two groups had 3 altercations while they were in, but no one knows why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This leads to Peter calling Black Cat, saying he thinks \u201cher boss\u201d might be able to help, and he owes Spider-Man, big time. She says he\u2019s not her boss, but she\u2019ll ask. I do not know who they\u2019re talking about. MJ knows who Peter is talking to, however, and says of her once and future friend Black Cat, \u201cEvery time that woman touches our likes, it ends up bad news. But you just can\u2019t keep away, can you?\u201d I can only assume this has come from the character assassination Mark Millar performed on MJ and Felicia in Marvel Knights Spider-Man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ohhhh, right. Felicia works for the Owl because of MKSM for some reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spider-Man really has no reason to trust the Owl here. It\u2019s not so great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
