    @$%^&

     I nearly choked from the flow of awesomeness, which is poured on me from the pages of this comic. Inhale-Exhale. Inhale-Exhale. Inhale-Exhale.
     
    What I like the most about Dan Slott as a writer is his ability not to forget his past works. You know, many writers have the habit to write some kind of an interesting twist, and then forget about it (striking example - Bendis & Sentry-story) but this guy... Oooh, he's magician! Remember, in the first issues (#548, i guess) of BND it was a small collision between Spider-Man and Mr. Negative? Great story, I should tell you... As a result, Martin Li received Parker's blood sample and the chance to create individual bio-weapon. Gave me creeps back there, srsly.  Now we have a logical continuation of that plot. Pretty worth waiting, thou.
     
    To the point - I enjoyed this arc all the way to its completion. Good dialogues (funny as usual, Slott's style), good intrigue (the moment when it became known that the killings were only illusions of Mysterio - knocked me down), good ending (collect 'em all!). As a result =>
     
    Very solid 4.5/5

      THE BASICSAfter being tricked into thinking he'd become a murderer by Mysterio, Spider-Man's off to settle the score. All the while Mister Negative's forces are ready to move in on the Mysterio-backed Maggia.MY COMPLIMENTS TO THE CHEFIt was great to get a chance to pop into Mysterio's head in this issue. He gets quite a few funny lines of dialogue and almost outshines Spider-Man himself, all while still remaining a respectably evil villain, if not quite a menacing or intimidating one.I love the...
