  The fear green goblin displayed when he heard Spider-Man crack a joke is such an iconic panel to me. Realizing that Peter is back and that he is so fucked.

  Honestly otto realizing peter had been holding back his true strength for all those years after he effortlessly punches scorpions jaw clean off is one of my favorite parts in any comic

  I think that Mephisto needs to get a life. Stalking and manipulating people into forgetting things and not having a kid is not a life.

  I love how Mephisto has just become the ultimate herald of the writers rolling back spider-man's character development for no reason

  My only problem with Superior Spider-Man is that every supporting character suffered from Plot Induced Stupidity. Like you said, Mary Jane somehow couldn't figure out that the love of her life was suddenly acting like a massive jackass to everyone. I still love this story tho.

  My biggest issue with this arc is that not a single soul in the Marvel universe knew something was off.

  Alex, if you're a huge fan of Superior Spider-Man, I highly recommend reading Superior Four, which focuses on Otto teaming up with various versions of himself, and he goes through a journey where he learns to move on from being Spider-Man, but also a villain, and decides to try helping others as Otto Octavius, for me it's basically an epilogue to last Superior Spider-Man run

  The Superior run was one of my favorites. My only problem with it was that I disliked Marvel killing off Otto, then bringing him back as a villain like if none of this mattered.

  Man, superior Spider-Man was a really good comic run. I love how Otto grew major respect for Peter after taking over his body. You get to see the subtle character growth that Otto has and it also makes you think if Otto is the better Spider-Man. The moment where Peter makes Otto hesitate during the girl’s surgery makes you second guess peters moral. The end where Otto even gives up his body to stop Norman shows the immense amount of character development that he went through in this run.

  I love this sort of "Walk a mile in their shoes" kind of character development. Force a character to realize just how and why a certain person behaves by shoving them in their body and they can learn a lot.
