Superior Spider-man: My Own Worst Enemy (Vol.1)
























Superior Spider-Man Vol.1 (My Own Worst Enemy)

Dying Wish to a Dawn of a New Spider=
With the aftermath of the “Dying Wish” chapter, Doc Ock and Peter share one mind/body/soul. But there is a catch, everything Peter used to hold back on, Doc may have a change of heart. Everything he never could, he just might turn the tides on everyone.

New duds, gear, and suit, Superior Spidey outdoes everything that made the ASM series great. It redefines this new series, by turning everything we know about what made Spidey a hero, now a anti-hero. From his relationships with: MJ and Carlie, to working side by side with JJJ, and visiting Aunt May. Could the villain have a heart of gold? Behind this sinister heart, beats the villain’s consciousness, ever plotting, changing, evolving the intellect that was once another human being.

What keeps this story intact is that although Peter may not have his body, in spirit he watches over every move this new “Spidey” makes. Breaking rules, making decisions he never could. Including accessing memories via their connected minds, reliving the past and able to tap into what made them push the others buttons. No longer hero and villain, now one and the same, fighting for existence where one will prove the victor.

As time passes, this new Spidey may have changed the way NYC sees the classic hero. Being the ever vigilant; watchful eye over everything that goes on. But is it too much power? And is the villain emerging?

**I have to admit, it is daunting to read Doc Ock taking over Peter’s body. But since “Ends of the Earth” there was something hidden within Dan’s script. It was haunting how Doc Ock vowed to never give up, even on his deathbed surrounded by his old ‘Sinister Six”. With Peter challenging every move he made since the day they first met. What could happen next?
