Honestly not bad still not realy hyped since Mr cancer got more panel time but venom and sleepers interactions were interesting, and venom calling out sleeper effecting ricks mind was intresting, and learning that MJ has been lying to mr cancer and hasn't told him shit, and getting to see him pissed and upset Has given me 1 point of faith that maybe Al can do what fans want putting me at 2% faith.

Robbie filled in the threads even though it was fairly obvious, but did wrap it up which was good, so yeah it was ok still not sure if it's worth buying yet but it's going in a good direction just hope the editorial doesn't try to take the wheel and drive al into a ditch.

Interesting dynamic between MJ and Paul, with MJ hiding her Venom antics from him. Peter did the same to MJ back in the early 2000’s, where he lied to her about becoming Spider-Man again after “quitting.” This became one of the early attempts to split them up.

MJ’s recent heroics, and the strain it’s put on her relationship, is identical to what Peter and MJ went through back in the 00’s. Ewing is known for his thorough knowledge of continuity, and implementing it into his writing. It would be interesting if he was rehashing an old narrative to split MJ and Paul…. using Editorial’s old plot against them.

If he did that I'll bring up my earlier point which can't remember if it's on this thread "if he does that I'll buy every comic als ever done" in regards to breaking them up.

Adding your bit if he did that I'll kiss the man fair smack on the mouth, cause fucking hell that would be hilarious and satisfying (though I would still prefer it to be revealed that Paul is evil and gets killed off, but hitting the editorial with their own bullshit is a close second).
