Hey! SoldierHawk, MON5T3R, thanks for stopping by. I’m willing to give a fair amount of suspension of disbelief to a story, and this one didn’t need too much, but everyone needs to nerd back to their roots sometimes, right? I still remember Physics 101…lol

MON5T3R: Definitely check out this arc. I’ve been going on about it for a while, but it really has an old school feel to it that I’m really enjoying.

thats a helluva cover! i hate to admit it, but i normally buy (back) issues by that feature alone. thats obviously the point of a good cover – but i let every critical observation slide in (back) issue hunting. feels like im degrading the work that goes in beyond the turn of the cover though.. ah well. since im not subscribin to spidey in the meantime, this will keep me on the look out – and that fact that you graded pretty fairly. and about tripping fuses..maybe he has some dexterity with the current / like an octopus has with its jelly contours? haha 😛

Hahaha Electro jumping out of the computer screen had me scratching my head/laughing quite a bit too. But as you say in the review, it really is a nitpick–I enjoyed this comic an awful lot, and honestly, little elements like that just added to the fun.

While I did love the story, it really is the art that did it for me in this issue, and Electro’s character. I just love the idea that someone could gain that kind of power, and still be so petty and feel so sorry for themselves. Its almost pathological. But I like it! It makes him very, very different from any other super villain–or super hero for that matter.
