Didn't buy it but "aquired" a copy of the final part of clone saga just to see how this awful mess ends up. So looking forward to Dread's review! Can't be bothered to do a summary for this polished turd so I nicked one from comicbook resources
An abortion in comicbook form
The issue starts off at The Baxter Building where Reed Richards is asking Peter if he wants to be cured. Peter is astonished, but tells Reed he'll have to think about it. Peter takes off to go see Aunt May, and Mj stays behind at the Baxter Building. Minutes after he leaves Nick Fury shows up asking where Peter is so he can contain the situation. Mj can't understand why Fury wants to arrest Peter so much and tells Fury that in a way Peter looks up to him as a father figure. This gets to Fury and he leaves. Next, Kitty and the X-men fly over Queens looking at the damage. Jean listens in on S.H.E.I.L.D. Agents thoughts and hears that Peter's aunt is in the hospital. Next Page, Peter sits beside Aunt May's bed feeling horrible about what has happened. He begins to talk to her (even though she is asleep). He tells her he is so sorry for lying to her and that he should have told her. He also tells her he thinks of her as his mother. Then Nick Fury walks in. Peter gets pretty angry with him for building the spider-slayers. Fury tells him that he did it incase Peter snapped and became some big super-villian. He just wanted to be prepared. He tells Peter that is he doesn't screw eveything up that he may become something special. As he leaves he tells Fury to tell Reed that he says no to the offer. Outside the room Jean & Kitty are cloaked listening to the conversation. Kitty begs Prof. X to erase Aunt May's memory so tht she won't remember Peter being Spidey, but Prof. X says no and Kitty gets pissed. Inside the room May wakes up and tells Peter that his costume is horrible (I love tht line) and she hugs him with tears in her eyes. Back in Queens Mj is reunited with her mom. Somewhere else Peter & Spider-woman meet. She tells im tht she is going to leave and become Jessica Drew and maybe be a super-hero, and then they hug as Jessica says, "Ready for the most awkward hug ever?" (another good line). Next page, Nick Fury stands in a S.H.E.I.L.D. facility with a group of scientists looking at Scorpion & Gwen-Carnage sedated in two display tanks. Fury tells the scientists to get to work (interesting). Queens the next day, Peter looks at the damage at his house. Mj walks up. She tells him that she told her mom Norman Osborn attacked her and Spidey saved her. Mj's mom comes on the scene on she tells Peter tht he will be staying with them. Mj tells Peter tht she is glad tht she has him back and they kiss. In the background Kitty watches as they do. Later, as Mj brushes her teeth she looks in the mirror and shes a reflection of Kaine behind her. She turns around screaming, but it's only Peter behind her.
