What a good story this one was. I miss Sensational. I think that was the hardest pill to swallow after BND. They did such good stories here. I did like that Aguirre-Sacasa wrote the "Book of Peter" as well, basically a way of saying farewell to the original continuity and having God say to Peter that he should let go of Aunt May. I'm honestly surprised they let that one go to print, as it was basically a jab at what was coming.
Still, this two parter with Eddie Brock was enjoyable. Watching Eddie's drift towards insanity was just creepy.

Hey Donald,

Your Spider-Man Unlimited's (Volume 1 & 3... I don't count vol.2) have no links... if you could fix them up, that would be great.

Some of the covers for this arc I always had a problem with. Don't get me wrong, I always liked the issues, but I was always a little bit bothered by the way Klaus drew Spidey on the covers. He was over-sized, IMO.
