I'm in the minority, but I enjoyed that story

 

[iloveclones]

I always thought this storyline was a huge mistake.

I had actually "quit" comics. When I heard John Byrne was re-vamping Spidey, that's what caused me to come back. In fact the LCBS guy still laughs about how emphatic I was about not having a pull list, that it was going to be JUST THIS COMIC (I spend about 30-50 bucks a week now).

So, say what you will about Ch1, it did get me back in comics...

In a world of people who walk on walls and make deals with the Devil, I still feel I have to point out that with the recoil it would be physically impossible to accurately shoot two sub-machine guns at the same time. Spidey is doing the considerate thing and saving him from shooting his foot off or having the barrel recoil into his jaw.

Also John Byrne drove me away from Spider-Man. For about 3 years until Paul Jenkins and JMS took over. John Byrne's Spider-Man was one of the worst takes ever besides Ron Zimmerman and a couple other certain Quesada "epics". Hell, compared to Byrne's excrement, Terry Kavanagh's terrible 'Web' run was 'Kraven's Last Hunt'.
