Ultimate Spider-man #118 - Marvel


This looks like it could become a "Spidey and his Friends" title pretty soon. He's coming out of class, and he gets dropped in on by everybody this issue. First Johnny Storm shows up outside, to talk to Kitty. But since she and Pete are talking, he's dragged in to it. Which also includes Kenny, because he's kind of dating Kitty. And don't forget MJ. Well . . then Bobby Drake shows up. He wants to tell Kitty how sorry he is about the way things went down back at the school, that he misses her, and he has a note for her from Logan. We don't find out what that's about yet, but, I'm sure we will. And finally Johnny has expressed an interest in Liz, so he's trying to talk to her. They decide to all get together and have a day at the beach. Now keep in mind that all of this is going on outside of Pete's school, so as they're all standing in the yard discussing things, everyone else in the school is gathering around and looking on. Pete is starting to get worried, but MJ reassures him, "No one is looking at you! Trust me!" I don't think she meant for it to sound that condescending, but . . . it does. But the real news is while they're out on the beach. Liz hasn't been feeling good lately. Actually it's been coming and going. But at the end of this issue . . . it looks like she's going to be this Universe's Firestar. I could be wrong, but that's the feeling I'm getting. So if Pete starts hanging out with her and Bobby . . . it's "Spidey and Friends" all over again. A great book by Bendis and Stuart Immonen. They really haven't missed a beat since Mark left. It's still a really cool book. And next issue, we have . . . Magneto?
