Thoughts on the direction of Superior Spiderman
By Scott Keith on August 13, 2013
[ass-kissing intro]Hey Scott! Love the blog! Long time fan![/ass-kissing intro]
Anyway, quick question: How long to you think Marvel goes into full Vince Russo mode and brings Parker back? I've been reading the gripes from other comic book heads and they seem to want Parker back, but I am enjoying this new ass-kicking ruthless Spiderman.

Superior is generally my favorite and first read of the week, and Dan Slott has this thing solicited until at least #24 as of right now, so Octo-Spidey is staying put for the moment. Plus Superior Foes might be the funniest book this side of Deadpool, with the petty squabbling and debates over tipping hostage waiters ruling the day. So I'm pretty damn happy with the status quo as it stands and it's nice to see an EFFECTIVE Spider-Man, even if we can all see that Otto's blackmail of JJJ and sudden influx of henchmen are going to come back and bite him in the ass sooner or later. But that's the fun of it, because he's SUCH an asshole that you're kind of cheering for him, and I definitely don't want to him dead again. Hopefully they can find another Spider-Man analogue to stick him into (Spidey 2099? Scarlet Spider? Agent Venom?) when Parker reclaims his body around the time of Amazing Spider-Man 2. Plus Superior is generally the highest selling of the Marvel Now titles, so you have to think they're keeping things just as they are, as long as Slott delivers that sweet sales cheddar.
Cue Jesse Baker rant here.
