Ultimate Spider-Man Volume 17 Clone Saga

Apparently the original run of Spider-Man had a whole clone thing. I'm not aware of that. I do know that I enjoyed Clone Saga from the Ultimate Spider-Man , even though it felt like a giant excuse to get Peter and Mary Jane back together after their earlier break up.

By far, the most interesting clone was Spider-Woman. I'd like to see more of her. The Scorpion clone, not so much. The thing I really like about Brian Michael Bendis is his ability to give real emotion to his characters. The scene where Peter finally tells Aunt May his secret is really moving. His reaction to her subsequent heart attack just feels real. I'm giving this one a 5.
