Sensational Spider-man #29 - Marvel


Ok the longer they can keep Angel Medina on this series, the better. The artwork is just awesome. The story is good too. But, the artwork is just awesome. All of Peter's foes are gathering together to make a big stike against him. We start out with the Chameleon recruiting Raxon. He's being aided by Electro. Meanwhile Spider-man is fighting the Scarecrow and Will'o the Wisp. I know, they're bush leaguers, but, I think they're just trying to soften him up for the big guns. We're probably going to see every foe Peter even remotely tangled with on this story arc. The funny part was when MJ was fighting with Peter on the phone. She gets off, and everyone around her is listening. "You weren't fighting with Peter just now, were you?", they say as they all look stunned in disbelief. "Well, disagreeing, but. . . . yes. Why?", MJ replies. "So really you were fighting with Spider-man." "I... I guess so, yeah.", Mj says in answer to their question. "But . .he's Spider-man, Mary Jane!" Great dialogue. That would be like someone telling Maria Shriver that she shouldn't argue with the Terminator. That's awesome. And the Black Cat being upset because it's not as sexy now that everyone knows what used to be her and Peter's little secret, is classic. Peter turns to Madame Web to try to find out what's going on, but even she can't get a clear picture. And what's up with Liz Allen at the end? I guess we'll have to read the rest of the story arc, just like everyone else.
