Friendly Neighborhood Spider-man #13 - Marvel


This issue wraps up the story of the multiple Mysterio's. It had all the usual Mysterio stuff. Daniel Berkhart and Francie Klum, the latest 2 Mysterio's, battle it out over who they think is better. Of course Spidey beats them, and with Flash's help save the school, the kids, and difuse the bomb. But, the real point of this story is two-fold. First we are being introduced to a new sub-plot that is going on. Appararently there are two sides fighting over something, we don't know yet, but it obviously revolves around Peter. Quentin Beck, the dead Mysterio, is on one side of the fence. The second reason for our story, the introduction of the school nurse Miss Arrow, and her alterego which we aren't privy to yet, is on the other side of the fence. In fact Miss Arrow doesn't even know yet what her role is or who's calling the shots. But she does have powers. I'm wondering if she's going to be some kinda' Spider-girl, or Spider-woman or something. The spikes that come out of her forearms look an awful lot like Peter's. But we'll just have to wait and see. I do have to admit though that this storyline was better than the last convuluted one. This is turning out to be a fun series. Let's see where it goes from here.
