Well . . at the end of last issue . . Kaine showed up. In the Web of Spider-man, issue #1, we see where Kaine's been and a hint as to why he's showed up here. Peter does a whole lot of talking, as usual, while they're fighting. But he doesn't get a whole lot in response. However he does find out that Kaine thinks that Ryder is the only one that can stop his body from breaking down . . from dying on him. Meanwhile, we get more of the story of what went down between Ryder and Ben Reilly. It seems that Ben was working for Damon as a lab assistant. Things were going along smoothly until Damon started experimenting upon himself with altered dinosaur DNA. This whole thing started as Damon trying to find the link between dinosaur and man . . the evolutionary jump. But now it's turned into something else entirely. He blames Reilly for killing his wife and family . . his house burned down. But to me, it's starting to look like Reilly just happened to be there when everything went down. I think we're going to see that it was actually Damon that destroyed his own family. Meanwhile, while Peter has been fighting Kaine, Damon has been going after those close to Peter. He pays Michelle an eerie visit, and now, at the end of this book, he's at Aunt May's old house and is holding Harry and his Reilly cousins hostage. He gives Peter an ultimatum . . 'You killed my family and now I'm going to kill yours while you watch. "Peter?" While you're at it, why don't you tell him who you really are?' And it looks like . . Peter might just have to. The next issue is titled . . 'Secrets No More!' Marc Guggenheim does a great job with this story. He's another one that does a great job at handling Peter's character. The art for this issue is done by Marco Checchetto on some of the pages, and Luke Ross and Rick Magyar on the rest. It was an ok book. I wasn't thrilled with the art. And I don't think we really made a whole lot of progress in the story. But I'm starting to think I may have to pick up Spider-man's Clone War Saga mini-series to get the rest of this story. I think this book, and Web, is just providing some of the background pieces. I guess I'll have to give it a look and find out.
