I review Amazing Spider-Man #20/984 by Joe Kelly and John Romita Jr along with Paco Diaz and Todd Nauck. An issue that had a great look at Norman Osborn and actually what Alecto and the Cult of the Scrier is really doing. Plus for some reason Ben Reilly decides he doesn’t need to be part of this story anymore and Kintsugi is still trying to happen. But despite it’s pros, the story feels like it’s rushing to an end because you know, we have a big crossover happening soon with Venom and Carnage.
Read’s Reads Amazing Spider-man #20/984 Review
@Hornacek – I just assumed from Ben’s comment to Janine that he sabotaged the experiment, though it’s possible that I was reading too much into it. I figured Ben was tired of pretending to be Peter and didn’t want him to get credit for the work he’d been doing, so, as a final farewell before becoming Ben again, he ruined the experiment. I’d like to believe that what happened to Brian was an unintended consequence. Still, you’d think with an understanding of the responsibility that must also come with power, he’ll be really sorry when he finds out what he caused. One can hope, I guess.
I never saw any indication that Kingsley’s group was the Scriers.
Wait, do we know for sure that Ben sabotaged his and Brian’s work and caused Brian’s accident? I thought the accident was caused by Brian’s overeagerness to do the experiment alone and without safety precautions. I didn’t get the impression that it was deliberately caused by Ben, unless I missed something.
Do we know for sure this is the Scriers? Have they actually been identified as “Scriers” in the comic?
