    Is anyone still reading Superior Spiderman?

    I have finally reached my end. I was willing to give it a shot in hopes that Peter was comming back. THaey have made it apparent that this will never happen and are convinced they are doing the right thing. I want to Vomit when I read the letters page at the end of each book. I keep buying to see the change happen, they think we keep buying because the fans like the change. BAH!!! cant stand the change and I am killing my subscription tomorrow.
    Two books a month to watch Doc Oc tear everything Peter was to the ground. NO MORE I SAY!!!

    Anyone else out there agree or disagree with me?

    I'm still reading it, because no matter what they say, Peter Parker IS coming back at some point...creative teams are always changing, and the current team isn't going to last forever. Besides, Spider-Man is still Peter Parker in all other forms of media...cartoons, movies, etc.
    It's becoming pretty obvious in Superior that Ock's life as Spider-Man is beginning to unravel. He's alienating everyone, and despite his intentions, he's still doing evil things. The real story is going to be in how Peter must rebuild his entire life and undo the damage Doc Ock has done.

        All the bad clone stuff eventually passed in the 1990s; this will too at some point.

          When ASM2 comes out this summer, Parker will be back in the saddle.

          But I don't blame you. If you are not enjoying it, don't buy it. The number one reason comic companies put out material 90%of their fans dislike is because 75% of those same fans KEEP BUYING IT. Send them a message via your lack of dollars.

            I still read it because I enjoy certain aspects of it. One thing that's always irked about PP Spidey is he hols back too much and was never perceived as powerful as he really is expect for a few epic moments. For instance I enjoyed the issue where the Kingpin was sent scrambling because that is always what SHOULD happen when a normal human no matter how strong goes up against someone who can lift 10 tons. That said I still prefer PP as Spidey and it looks like the writing is on the wall as Superior may ending with issue #30 and they've already been put Amazing 700.1-700.5 featuring the classic Spidey with stories set before the mind swap.

              NOPE! I dropped it the minute they killed Peter Parker and have NOT BOUGHT ONE BOOK since...or even any book they had him appear in.

                Wow. Lots of negative stuff. I'm liking it. I've only picked it up because Peter was gone. I like the idea of the villain trying to be a better hero and failing. It's the only Marvel book I'm buying.

                  I'm still picking it up and enjoying it. They have really done a slow burn and are cranking things up on this Goblin nation arc. not really liking Superior Spider-Man team up as much as the main book though.

                  Peter Parker fans should be reading the Marvel Knights series with some terrific art by Marco Rudy.

                    I'm enjoying it too...I think they're heading towards a real meltdown of Otto Octavius, when he's going to realize he ISN'T superior. It's becoming obvious as Ock lashes out at everyone around him. He can't handle juggling the pressures of being Spider-Man and maintaining Peter Parker's personal life.

                      The smugness, the superior attitude, the i am better than everyone doesnt belong behind Spideys mask. I understand the wanting to see spidey lash out and show what he can really do...but It should be Peter, not DOC ...FEAKIN....OCK!! Why dont we just deface the statue of liberty with Mexican Flag Colors, or exchange Abraham Lincolns Head with Jeffersons, or worse yet...Peyton Manning in an Oakland Raiders Jersey....AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

                        I just canceled Superior today, and picked up 700.1-700.5 on Ebay.

                          I'm referring to the way Ock lashes out in his personal life at Peter's friends, co-workers and even Aunt May. This last issue he exploded at her and treated her terribly...something Peter would never do. Peter's going to have one hell of a time putting everything right with people when he comes back, and then there's the added dilemna of Ock's budding romance. How will Peter deal with that? It's gonna make for some great reading. I'm staying on board 'til the end. I'm just as ready as anyone for the return of the real Spidey, but it has been an engaging story so far...
