WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
BEN: This:
DUY: If this happened in 2020, the racist fans would be complaining that a black character exists.
BEN: Peter finally using his built-in excuse.
DUY: Perfect in today's day and age. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Or “We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere." by Elie Wiesel.
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
BEN: This.
DUY: Heeheehee, his name is Shallot.
BEN: This whole Vulture imposter plot. So the experiment made him look exactly like Toomes for some reason?
DUY: The genetic mutation and facial changes idea has now been introduced, though, and that's going to be important in around 20 issues.
NITPICKS
BEN: Maybe don’t wear a bright yellow jacket then.
FAVORITE PANEL
BEN: Mine:
DUY: Mine:
WHO WON THE COMIC?
DUY: Once again, Gerry Conway, who hits a LOT of positive check marks in this entire issue.
BEN: And Peter isn’t a total dick this time.
