To be perfectly honest with you . . this issue really didn't progress the story very much. Which is why I'm thinking that I need to pick up the mini-series, Spider-man: Clone Saga. I've been trying to stay away from it, but . . we really get nothing here. Last issue Raptor had gone to Aunt May's house and had planned to kill Harry and the Reilly's who are now living there. He wanted to kill those closest to Ben Reilly, not knowing that this is actually Peter's family. Even though it's been told to him repeatedly. I guess that's part of the effects of the dino-DNA . . he just can't get things through his thick head. Anyways, Peter showed up, wanting to save them, but it looked like he was going to have to give up his secret-identity to do so. Then, this issue, Kaine also shows up. It seems that he still hates Peter, and he's trying to get Raptor to help him with his degenerating DNA issue. In the melee Harry gets knocked out, and Peter gets all the Reilly girls to get out of the house. So when he turns to Spider-man, and is later unmasked, Raptor is the only one there for him to reveal his identity. Convenient! Of course Peter still worries about it. But it may all be moot. At the end of the issue, Kaine is mad at Raptor because either he won't help him, or can't . . I'm a little confused about that part. But on the final panel he's throttling him and it looks like he's going to take his head off. But I don't know if it's that easy to kill someone with lizard DNA. Anyways, the house gets trashed. But at least it's not burnt down. And Kaine and Raptor escape. Peter's left there holding the bag, but as always he swings away. And really . . that's all the issue was . . one big fight scene. We really don't know anything more about Kaine, Raptor or Ben Reilly than we did going into this issue. We do get a little more insight into the argument and events leading up to Damon's house and family burning. But, as expected, either Damon killed them himself in his rage, or Kaine did it. Not much of a surprise there. And next issue I think we change story-lines altogether. So it looks like next Wednesday I'm going to have to look for the first couple issue of that mini. See how they drag you in? Anyways, this issue was by Marc Guggenheim and Marco Checchetto, Luke Ross and Rick Maygar. It was an ok issue. For what it was. I just wish we had gotten a little more background on some of the characters.
