I read a couple-page preview, but it was mostly rehashing "Waiting for Superman" as an origin story for the new kid. And does he remain a kid? He looked to be about 12 in the comic. I have an issue with someone named "Spider-man" being a little boy.

Otherwise, I don't really have much opinion on it at all. It seems like a pointless exercise in publicity, at most. If the character turns out to be in any ways decent then it's a shame he's permanently in the shadow of Peter Parker, and that hardly seems like it's doing a favor to diversity in comics.

- Haven't read it. I do highly recommend the "Spider Island" storyline going on with the 616 version (no text) · killer shrike finds it very Parodyversish · Fri Sep 23, 2011 at 09:25:09 pm EDT
  - I saw a few pages of some Avengers tie in with Hawkeye struggling because his arrows kept sticking to him. (no text) · Visionary was surprised to hear it was a massive, multi-issue event, but it did look fun. · Mon Sep 26, 2011 at 11:24:46 am EDT
