CIVIL WAR II AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #1 (OF 4)

(W) Christos N. Gage (A) Travel Foreman (CA) Khary Randolph

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN GETS CAUGHT UP IN CIVIL WAR II! There's a new Inhuman with the ability to seemingly predict the future, and as the heroes of the Marvel Universe continue to grapple with their feelings about his very existence one thing almost everyone can agree on is that he bears a tremendous responsibility to use his powers safely. Peter Parker, aka THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, knows a thing or two about that -- too bad he's also got the ol' Parker luck working against him.

Rated T+

I wonder if he'll see Ulysses to Mephisto this time?

Do not like the art. That is a cool Phil Noto cover.

Why do writers always forget that Spdey is wearing armor, and that it shouldn't have been torn at all?

Why has Vulture been given so much attention in these last six years than other villains?

Well after the last civil war he made a deal with Mephisto, him and MJ selling their marriage to the devil and that solved all the problems created by his idiocy in cw1, so after what will probably be his idiocy in cw2 will he sell Ulysses to get out of it? Given how marvel writers characters out of character during big events I don't think it's a possibility that can be ruled out. I don't think marvel will write Pete as dumb as before, but I wouldn't bet money on it.

Visually it's more dramatic to have it torn.

Electro has gotten plenty of attention he's made a decent amount of appearances in in spider man as well as other comics and he even got that whole electroverse event. Kraven had the whole last hunt thing, got to kill one of the spiders and his kid is in all new inhumans. Doctor octopus nearly destroyed the earth, killed spider man and actually became spider man for like a year. Mr Negative has gotten a decent amount of attention too and has even appeared in non spider man stories, unlike vulture. And then there was the whole critically acclaimed Superior foes of spider man. Carnage got a ton of attention during axis and now has his own series. And Black Cat is the new Kingpin of crime. I could go on.

Spidey has a rich rogues gallery and I don't think any of them have really been neglected in the last six years. In fact I think they've been used a lot more effectively than most other rogues galleries (i.e. Batman, Iron man etc)

As a fan of Spider-Man and his current series I really hope this event doesn't screw him over like the last Civil War.

This particular one it's weird since this is Christos Cage, who knows his stuff.

I don't think it will. By all we've seen so far, they don't seem to be focusing on him that much. And the writer never makes Peter do anything in events so I doubt this time would be different.

@amazingfantasy: Yeah, very true. I was surprised to see Gage wrote this. I am actually scared for Civil War II though, because knowing Bendis, he will have Spidey crack some jokes, and then get wrecked by someone really weak in a totally OOC way. He hates Spidey so much, especially now that he has Miles. How much do you want to bet that we will see Miles one shot Peter with his venom blast?

@mark_stephen: That's true, but that doesn't mean they should ignore the armor's capabilities to do so (especially against such weak villains). It's not like we see Iron Man's armor getting torn up when fighting.

I believe that marvel goes for drama more than it goes for consistency.

What would Mephisto want with Ulysses? With all the mystical artifacts he has in his realm I'm sure there's a crystal ball lying around somewhere.

its funny how some of you think that a writer hates a character for some mysterious reason...despite getting paid to write the character that the writer supposedly hates.

I feel the same as Peter.
