Spider-man has to kids to mentor now.

Super-boy: I didn't ever get a allowance this month. Ask my mom for that twenty dollars. Say. How do you earn money anyway?

He should get Deadpool to co-mentor. Master Matrix grew up to be one fine artificial individual.

[superfangirl1]

That would be awesome and make a great story.

(I know I spelled Spider-boy name wrong)

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS

[blues32]

Why would he want his old suit back? That looks much better.

[cainofdreaming]

Spider-tradition. Look at all the upgraded suits Peter's thrown away.

[blues32]

Oh, he throws ALL his suits away, then walks away from them sadly.

Specifically referenced by Bailey in the story!

Wonder if there's a landfill in Jersey that's nothing but Spider-man uniforms.

I liked this book. I'm glad it ended on this note rather than something which altered or removed the character.

Marvel has a really nice bench of modern characters like this guy, Ms. Marvel, Squirrel Girl, Gwenpool, Moon Girl...quite a few others but these four have been my favorites and are the first to come to mind. If I were running the line I would age out all the big name characters, just retire them or shift them to mentor roles in other characters' books. I mean, I wish all comics going forward were creator-owned, but as long as there are going to be company-owned superhero comics I wish they'd put their corporate weight into promoting this and more stuff like this.

So why did Man take Boy's costume away?

And wow, feels like a lot happened between that and this for one issue.

[cyberghostface]

He staged a bank robbery the previous issue to get Mr. Negative and that was the last straw for Pete.

[lbd_nytetrayn]

"Staged" a bank robbery?

That sounds bad.
