Morbius the Living Vampire #6

Morbius the Living Vampire #6 was disappointing.  Having Spider-Man show up should be great as him and Morbius have history.  Unfortunately we get the lame assed girlfriend beating bystander murdering Superior Spider-Man.  So when the new villain shows up she / he kicks Spder-Man’s rear.  We expect Morbius to get beat up as that is how this comic has been going.  But as for the Superior Spider-Man?  Let us just say he was lacking in the Superior aspect of his name.  It all winds up with a meeting between the super science villain and the Rose.  Why people would be surprised they had something bigger planned is beyond me.

Superior Spider-Man #6AU

The Superior Spider-Man #6AU (Age of Ultron) was interesting.  I am still not a fan of the Superior Spider-Man and could rant about how evil the people whom allowed Doctor Octopus to kill Peter Parker and replace Parker’s mind with his own.  This story starts right at the start of events in Age of Ultron #3 before the She-Hulk and Luke Cage plan can start.  Spider-Man is plotting a way to escape from his helpers and destroy Ultron on his own.  Tony Stark (Iron Man) tells Spider-Man that the Horizon Labs survived and Tony had a way to destroy Ultron if he could get a hold of some tech from the labs.  Spider-Man agreed to help but as soon as Quicksilver dropped him off Spider-Man betrayed the other survivors and tried to take down Ultron on his own using his own robot control powers.  Spider-Man almost succeeds but was tricked into a false fight and is almost killed.  He attempts to carry out Tony Stark’s plan but fails at that as well.  Spider-Man barely escapes and returns to give the bad news to the other remaining Heroes.  The story ends with Doctor Octopus realizing how good it is to have friends (queue the G.I. Joe “And knowing is half the Battle” music) just as the She-Hulk and Luke Cage are getting ready for their mission.
