Ultimate Spider-man #97 - Marvel

Again, I am floored by the Ultimate Series of books. This series especially is just fantastic. Peter is trying to make sense of everything that has happened to him over the last couple of issues, and while he's reflecting on this, he's got Kitty calling him up and going "Montel" on his butt, because she knows he's been hanging out with MJ again while she's been grounded. Although how you "ground" a person who walks through anything, I don't know. But anyways, it's the teenage angst again. Cool!!! So while he's dealing with all of this, and trying to become friends with MJ again, the Scopion strikes. After a long battle, Peter gives him a severe trouncing, but when his mask starts to break apart, the boy underneath, looks exactly like Peter. Oh, did I forget to mention that this book is titled "Clone Saga : Part 1"? Yep, we're into the drama and tribulation again. Who's made the clone? Why? Is there only one? Why is he costumed as a villian? However it's handled, I'm sure Bendis will do a fantastic job of it. I'm sure he will be true to the old clone stories while throwing in some twists and turns of his own. This is one of my favorite books out there. If you haven't read this series yet, "WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?" Do whatever you can to gather up all of them. You won't regret it.
