Look at neither of those hands actually touching anything. Great stuff. This wretched issue opens in Latverise, where some people are talking about a curfew, and then Spider-Man pops out of a bush saying the \u201chiding from the general public part\u201d just got real easy. What?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeah, Spider-Man\u2019s just breaking into Doom\u2019s castle with 2 people in ancient Iron Man armors out of nowhere. He disables a bunch of security, and then the old Iron Mans rejoin him inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Why yes, it\u2019s one of the most infamous and reviled bits of this infamously hated event, Aunt May and Mary Jane piloting Iron Man suits. And they\u2019re stealing Dr. Doom\u2019s time platform. To what end?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I only ran this page because Back to the Future explicitly did not follow any of the time travel rules Spider-Man rattled off there. They have traveled back to the day Peter\u2019s parents left and never came back. To the moment, even. So Peter can chase them out into the street, begging them not to leave, before breaking down weeping in the street, like he didn\u2019t just tell the others no one can see them and they can\u2019t change anything. Reggie Hudlid is one of the worst comic book writers of all time. Aunt May has just been chilling on the couch, and after MJ retrieves Peter from his street cry, they leave. That was for sure worth breaking into Castle Doom for. As they reappear in the present, they\u2019re surrounded by Doombots, which Spidey leaps into action against, but he has one of his episodes and is immediately about to die. This was a GREAT idea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of this post, this blog has looked at 1,896 comics, one children\u2019s read-along book, one novel and one video game, and I think this is quickly making a case for being the worst thing I\u2019ve ever seen. Next, Spider-Man is returning the Iron Man suits to Tony, who asks what he plans to do next. He says he\u2019s considered going to Vega. Then, because this event is pointlessly long and every issue so far has seemed to include some kind of filler, Peter has a 2-page imaginary sequence about using his Spider Sense to win at cards, only for the Wrecking Crew to attack his imagined casino and force him into action, so he decides not to go. Totally worthless. Tony says he\u2019s got the perfect idea, but we cut to Morlun, who says the time has come for him to feast. He waltzes into Avengers Tower, seemingly invisible to everyone there, but his prey isn\u2019t in at the moment. We saw the cover, we know where he is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If yer gonna recycle that panel over and over, maybe draw it well the first time! Look at MJ\u2019s eyes! But speaking of recycling\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Pat Lee or whoever he\u2019s conned into drawing this DOESN\u2019T recycle all the background detail from the cover for essentially the same shot! Why not? Work smarter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Really not honoring your $2.99 this month. This issue was terrible. Legendarily terrible and lived up to the legend. This was only part 5 of 6 and I\u2019m ready to be done with this stupid thing. I\u2019m getting the distinct impression nothing of any import happens before the final 3 issues, and that\u2019s absurd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
