Ultimate Spider-Man: Clone Saga

So here the title crossed a fairly big milestone, it's 100th issue. While USM was far from an 'underdog' it was something that many people wrote off as a gimmick from the getgo and the idea that it would get to a 50th issue, let alone twice that, was seen as laughable in 2001. Fortunately the title not only surpassed that but Bendis and Bagley would also later go on to break the record for longest uninterrupted run by two people on a Marvel title (previously held by Stan and Jack on Fantastic Four).
And what better way to celebrate such a momentous occasion but a take on one of the most maligned stories in Spider-Man history?

Spider-Verse gave me feeeeeelings this week, so here's another spider-crossover that gave me feeeeeelings: Superior Spider-Man vs. Scarlet Spider!
Superior Spider-Man, meet Kaine, the former supervillain who killed you that one time. Scarlet Spider, meet Otto Octavius, the former supervillain who stole your clone-brother's body/identity.

This will not end well.
[1 page from Amazing Spider-Man #673, 7 pages from Superior Spider-Man Team-Up #2, 7 pages from Scarlet Spider #20]

In the Midst of Wolves, Part 2
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

I love this cover. It makes my face itch.
There are references to the Grim Hunt storyline, most specifically Amazing Spider-Man #635 and #636, but reading them beforehand is optional.
TRIGGER WARNING: References to suicide and suicidal ideation; lots and lots of spiders.

If you're reading this week's Spider-Books, a dormant plot point from 2012-2013's Scarlet Spider may have become relevant again. Since I'll take any excuse to post stuff from "The Kaine & Aracely Show," here is Post 1 of 3 with relevant scans!
TRIGGER WARNING: Non-graphic but disturbingly implied gore! 7 pages from a 21-page issue.
( Kaine inherited the Parker Luck )

Still somehow a happy title, but not everything's bouncy heroes and sunshine.

I haven't touched on comics in a long time, but I've been following Kaine and Aracely in New Warriors. Fortunately, our faves left in Houston haven't been completely forgotten.

Kaine is Peter Parker's cranky little clone brother, who got stuck with the name Scarlet Spider and now stuck with a bunch of teenagers. WOE IS HE.

IMAGE HEAVY(ish)
Because I love Scarlet Spider, I'm gonna go ahead and shine the spotlight on these two characters. Also, I just spoiled that they're husbands, but since that reveal was over a dozen issues ago, I'm gonna go ahead.
Because THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST.

Can't get enough of the supporting cast of Scarlet Spider. Today, let's enjoy some of Aracely. With a side-order of Wally and Donald. Shall we?
