    That's what I'm talking about! (Tip: I'm talking spoilers)

    Superior Spider-man finally shows his full potential! I've waited for something like this to happen ever since Superior Spider-man began. And finally it happened. No Peter holding him back. No usual "nearly did it, but then stopped" cliche. This is how Superior truly shows it's superiority.

    The artwork was great and I really enjoyed it.

    The story was pretty dark, brutal. I had no problems with it. I know, Spidey is fun fellow, joking around, and his comics are ussualy light and fun (*cough*grim hunt*cough*), but I had no problems with dark stuff once in a while.

    The only thing, that I didn't liked, was the end, where Massacre showed his emotions. It kind of put Spidey in a bad light and made it look like he's a murderer and did a wrong thing, and everyone has a right to live, and who cares if later they come back and start massacring again.

    Superior Spider-man did the right thing IMO.

    Verdict: Best Superior Spider-man issue yet.

      Is Massacre supposed to be come kind of completely serious deconstruction of The Joker or something? His plan in this issue is more of a Joker kind of move, it's somewhat and weirdly elaborate, but cruel and deadly nonetheless; and of course it's all about spectacle and impact. But did Massacre care about those things? It seemed to me he was just someone who killed because he could. He never seemed like someone after fame or fortune, both of which he pursues in this issue.And when push comes to...
