After finally finishing this 3-year run....ugh...I just don't know what to say.
Geez.
Imo, Spencer is gotta be THE WORST writer to ever write a Spider-Man comic, I swear. Sure, there's been a plenty of awful writers, such as Mackie and Slott for example, but at least their stories, despite not being good, felt like they were written by actual writers and not some amateur who just took the pen for the first time.
When I was like 8 or 9, I used to write and draw my own comics (everyone's gotta have a hobby, I guess lol). They were probably fine for a 8 year old kid, but as you can guess, they obviously weren't some genius-level works, but I swear they were just about the same quality as Spencer's comics.
I don't know what else to say. That's just objectively a low-quality writing. Not just that issue, but his whole run as well. Nothing in it run holds any weight, everything sorta just happens and doesn't feel earned (except for that Felicia moment on the roof), no revelation feels shocking or like an actual revelation, pointless resurrections that serve no purpose and only ruining characters' legacies (seriously, does anybody even thinks that what Spencer has done with Sin-Eater wasn't a complete idiocy?), poorly thought out retcons that somehow end up being even worse and more complicated than the stories he's retconning and do more damage to the characters they were supposed to "fix", the same repeating twist with a villain having a thousand copies of himself over and over again, characters being added just for the sake of being added, like the more the merrier (pretty much the whole Sinister War crap, or the Hunted), an overall childish style of writing, mostly pretty bad art etc....
And the worst part is his slow storytelling. It's not that he's taking his time to slowly build up a story, it's just him filling a, let's say, 7-issue arc with 6 fillers, with a villain repeating some teasing sh*t like Kindred did with all these "Ooh I know you've been waiting for this for a very long time, we almost here, soon you will face your sins" in every issue (basically a character speaks from Spencers perspective to a reader, which got boring pretty fast to be honest), and then writes a conclusion in the final one.
