Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider as a teenager, granting him spider-like powers. After the death of his Uncle Ben, Peter learned that "with great power, comes great responsibility." Swearing to always protect the innocent from harm, Peter Parker became Spider-Man.
@Ninjablade09: Hmmmm, I could accept that...That or Ock becoming Doctor Octopus again having Peter's memories, perhaps even his body, like a new clone (he'd become automatically Pete's arch-nemesis - by the way, I don't think that it's going to happen, just saying an idea). Don't know...just end this travesty, is all I'm saying.
Just read Superior Spider-Man #2 and like before if you haven't read yet, carry on at your risk.
When it comes to this issue all I cared about where 2 things, everything else I couldn't care less, for instance SSM trying to get it on with Mary Jane and being thwarted at every turn, although fun watching him squirm and me feeling uncomfortable when he went through Peters Memories, beyond that all I cared about where these.
The main plot on the relationship between SSM and Mary Jane
Even though I the way Mary Jane was written in terms that she still doesn't realise it's not Peter is still insulting to her character and intelligence, at least I like the way SSM broke up with Mary Jane and the anxiety I was feeling regarding this has been alleviated some what, at least to the extent that I don't have to worry about it too much anymore.
As for Carlie I really like the way it ended the issue, the fact that she has suddenly realised something was up with Peter and that there's a connection with what Peter told her in Amazing Spider-Man #700
Like everyone I hope they end this TRAVESTY soon, like issue 7+8
@Phaedrusgr: lol my ideas just come to me. Read the article and started typing. I think of so many fan-fiction stories in Algebra. Also designed a new Spidey costume using ideas from Superior and the new costume and yes I used silver soles.
@gotwillpower: I think that they were not expecting such a fan blast wave. Some experts claim a fan blast wave is a million times stronger than an ordinary one.
@gotwillpower: Yeah,me too.....so SSM#2.....as Shamelesslysupportinaznballers said,too much Peter....this crossover-ish thing is getting....compicated....idk how Slott will manage to balance this thing.....i dont think he will,anyway....
And one thing about the art.....Stegman has to look more at his mouth openings....
@PunyParker: I think Slott's Superior run is probably going to have even more Phantom Peter. In fact, I'm pretty sure the whole run is going to hinge on Peter's dynamic. Maybe that's what Slott thought would be really fun? To make Spider-man a dynamic duo, except one member is a ghost?
I had finally dealt with the fact that Peter died, I moved on and then I decided to give SSM a shot. After reading issue #1 I felt let down, why is Peter back in the picture so soon? He literally died last month. Personally, (after I had come to terms with it) I wanted Peter gone for years! If you're going to do such a huge story like killing off one of the most well known & most loved characters in the entire world at least stick by it for a while? A good example of this is Barry Allen, Sure he's not on the same level as Spider-Man but at least he was dead for a long time! Plus we got Wally West instead who, in most opinions, is a better Flash than Barry ever was. Marvel are incapable of change and they're only interested in our money. I bet most of you (myself included) feel robbed. I don't know about everybody else but I'll be dropping SSM and picking up something actually worth my time & money.
A popular member on Youtube by the name of Main Event TV seems to be having a disagreement with Amazing Spider-Man writer Dan Slott. He has more than 10,000 subscribers so a lot of eyes are seeing this online fight. Here are his two videos addressing the disagreement. He posts Slott’s replies in the videos. What are your thoughts?
Oh! and....crazy town bananna-pants...?!?!?!....are you serious....Slott(MJ) said that Peter were saying this all the time....you all remember this fraze from Spiderman comicbook history......no?..... also the dude doesnt know how to write a female character....
After reading the first two issues of SSM, it's becoming obvious (for me, anyway) what direction this story will be heading in. Octopeter is heading for a gradual transformation where he slowly becomes a "good" person. In issue no. 1 it was his hesitation to kill someone. In issue no. 2 it was his understanding of the relationship Peter and MJ and, subsequently, not acting on impulse to get it on with her. I think these realizations will continue to take place over the next several issues, until he slowly transforms into a good person and likeable character. At this point, the arc will culminate with his ultimate redemption, in which Octopeter gives the real Peter his body back and Doc Ock goes once and for all into the ether, never to be heard from again.
The circumstances as to how this actually transpires is anyone's guess - but I do think this is how all this will eventually pan out.
Thoughts? Is this theory plausible? Has anyone else already thought of this possibility?

@Sampsman: To be honest, between cursing Slott (I'm kidding, or am I not...) and searching for a comic to replace ASM, I had some ideas on what will happen. I thought of that possibility, but I discarded it. Why? Cause it would totally destroy the character of Octavius, one character that Slott loves a lot (SL-OTTO). Perhaps, Peter's generosity and magnanimity could give another chance to Doc Ock, like giving him the opportunity to reside his psyche or consciousness (it depends on Slott's point of view of the facts) in another body, Peter's clone, Otto's clone, Otto's old but somehow repaired body...sincerely, don't know. There are many cards on the table, if you know what I mean.

Υeah....like the character of Ock isnt already destroyed.....i liked him as a villian....i started hating him since he became that almost-dying freak,in Ends Of Earth....now my hatred has compeletely taken over the character,because....he ,i dont know,TOOK OVER MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER'S BODY!....

Hope you are right!
I still think the purpose of this arc is to return Peter to his original status as a down on his luck loner with no entangling female relationships. The deal with MJ in the current instalment pretty much puts the nail in the coffin of the Peter/MJ relationship, even when Peter returns. If MJ cant accept Peter as Spiderman there is no future for them together. I think Ock just drove that point home to both MJ and Ghost Peter. I believe that those who are waiting for a Peter/MJ reunion at the end of this story line are setting themselves up for further disapointment.
I believe this story arc will be the way Marvel wipes out 50 years of character development and reboots the franchise for the next 50 years. When its done, Peter will have to repair old friendships, find a new job, forget about being in the Avengers, and work on developing relationships with females other than M.J., none of which will be longterm or emotionally fulfilling. This is the direction Marvels editorial board has said it wants the spiderman character to go. Back to his original roots. So far, I think Im right on target.

Gross. That's really nasty. I feel bad for Pete. Plus isn't this comic trying to help get new audiences to read comics?!?!?!?!?!? This doesn't do that. Marvel NOW should have been DC's New 52.
@Phaedrusgr: ewwww, your right he would be perfect there. Well at least I won't have to read it and I can actually read the mainstream spider-man again
@Ninjablade09: Oh my, it was his favourite line! Never noticed before, but it was there from the very beginning! Aw, Slott, you do know your characters, don't you?

This! I even made a topic about that, basically, Superior is just another way to reboot Spidey.

Yeah, he cares for us,readers.....awwww,such a good handsome and fit guy.....(yeah,i am being a dick now...)!

Who cares, its not like Slott gonna see it and care
Started thinking, if Ghost Peter can grab things and swing from buildings, couldn't he find the gold octo-bot and use it when ock is sleeping?
He's only been shown to be able to grab his own body.
1) that sounds weird
2) that's why I mentioned the swinging. He can walk climb and move like normal its just he cant be seen. I guess he has to stay by his body at all times.

Doesn't SPock still have the metal cranium cast thingy?

I don't think so. Wouldn't make sense to. He put it there to stop Peter from switching minds again. Now he thinks Pete's dead so there would be no reason to.
