I agree with JJJ's ulcer. I liked the idea, and the issue wasn't bad, but it was really rushed. The army fight should have been longer to have an impact, and it was weird that Peter never thought of using his heroes pal. Even those who are not his friends should be memories, so he could use them.
I do think the whole little girl stuff was interesting. I don't think Peter would have really risked the girl's life in the end, but that scene made me really uncomfortable.
it'll be interesting to read Spock's adventures without ghost Peter speaking non stop.
Aloha,
Dan Slott: To be fair, in Peter's defense, when Doc is walking away and leaving the mind-scape, one of the last things Peter says is, "It was only a moment. I would never." The thing that everyone forgets about Peter Parker is that Peter Parker is not a saint. When he let that burglar run by, he could have done anything to stop him and he didn't, and that burglar killed Uncle Ben. That's when he learned the lesson that with great power comes great responsibility. But that didn't magically baptize him and make him flawless
We've seen over the years, many times, that when Peter Parker really wants to do the wrong thing; he has that moment, and then he shuts it down. We've seen where he really wants to use his spider-powers to punch Flash Thompson, and he's imagining it, and he stops himself. And then Flash gets kidnapped by Doctor Doom, and Peter leans back and decides to do nothing about it. Two panels later, he's all, "Ah, fine, I'll save him!" It's that way for the history of Spider-Man.
Marvel.com: So you can add Peter's choice in SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #8 to a long list of momentary lapses.
Dan Slott: Look, if you think Peter Parker is a saint, and you treat him as this guy who never makes the unethical and wrong choice, you're doing it wrong. He will make the completely self-serving wrong-headed choice. But a moment later, he'll always bring himself back. What we saw in issue #8, and what Doc Ock calls him on, is that. And it's too late, because he's played on Peter's guilt. Someone asked me a question: "Why would Peter Parker let someone guilt him?" Well, that's Peter Parker! Do you know what would make him feel guilt? A strong breeze. [Laughs] Let alone that it's Doc Ock doing it!
