Hey, Ock is pretty much the only villain that hasn't had a major revamp! The major difference is that he worked at Osborn Industries and gained the arms in the same accident as Norman's. He's ****ing harsh!

Other than that he's probably one of the only villans that hasn't pissed of his fans... Horay!

Dan-El The Emerald Archer

I guess. The only villains that pissed me off were Carnage, Morbius, and... oh, Geldoff. He's not in 616 canon, but he's still irritating.

Spideys Sister Official Spidey Fangirl

Yeah.. wtf was the point of the irrisposible arc ... besides Pete and MJ getting back tgether with one of the most explicit make out scenes... I was kinda grossed out.

Doc Ock The Master Planner

Ultimate Ock rocks. Best villain in USM.

Worst has to be Carnage and the Scorpion. Oh and Hobgoblin was pretty bad too.

Dan-El The Emerald Archer

Agreed with Ock, though I have yet to read the issue with Scorpion.

I think that the scorpion being mixed in with the whole clone thing is retarded but his costume kicks A$$!!!

I know that, but something seemed to be wrong with the printing, or something. I don't know. Maybe it was my copy.

No, it wasn't just your copy it does seem like the colorist was a little drunk when he did this issue! and is there usually two inkers? that might have something to do with it.

I think the idea of using the scorpian as the clone identity of Peter was an excellent idea. The powers of each are very similar so it makes sense.

That's how I felt with vol 9... but I realized it was just to make us feel special.

Oh, lord... I just want to see Spidey and Carnage as one in the same again like in the game. They do that and Bendis can do what ever the *** he wants to that comic. But he MUST redeem carnage. It's mandatory.

I see... This makes me feel all--I don't know--warm and fuzzy inside. 😕

I read issue 97 today, and I have to say that I enjoyed it thoroughly. Pete's line of there being a "new sherrif in crazy town" to Aunt May was hilarious! The colors and pencils were kind of a throwback to the look of the early USM issues, and I love the story so far!

Using Scorpion as the springboard for the clone saga makes more sense to me than using Mac Gargan. That'd be a whole involved process, and would probably need it's own arc. The way that Bendis is presenting this whole thing totally redeems the ridicuolous clone saga storylines nearly ten years ago. I'm looking forward to the rest!

This looks like it might just make USM....

Scorpion isn't Mac.
Scorpion is

Spoiler:
the first clone of Peter Parker.

It makes sense, since Scorpy is the first villain to kick off the ultimate clone saga.

And they do have similar powers. ✅

Exactly. I think there could have been waaay worse ways to handle it, and we all know that bad ideas seem to be Bendis's style, lol!

Spideys Sister Official Spidey Fangirl

I was gonna get 97 today happy I didn't although my BF skimmed through and showed me it was Petes clone. I wish I had more money. Still happy I picked Deadpool prts 1+2 over it though.

H. S. 6 Approaching the End

Hehehe. I am a sneaky devil... [insert "sneaky devil" smilie here]

Lookie what I found while re-reading my Ultimate Spider-Man issues... That Bendis is a liar. ❌

(By the way, this is from the reader letters at the end of the issue.)

And he went out of his way to make a big deal out of it and insult Reilly fans. Pity, really.

Sorry. Had to post that. 😛
