Some confusion concerning Ultimate Spider-man series - SPOILERS

[ClumsyD]

I should note that this post will contain spoilers, so if you haven't read all the current issues (up to #82) then read with caution.



I love the series so far, I've read issues #1 - #82 (at least I think I have) and The Special (where they go into the class assignment of coming in as a Super hero), but a few things I seem to be missing while reading it leave me thinking "duuuuuuuh wha? when the hell did that happen??"

For instance, the 3 things I seem to be missing are;
In issue #30-something were Peter is looking for Eddie and runs into Doc Conners, they mention they met before and that Peter has faught Conners' alter ego (The Lizard), and even show a flashback image of it.

In the Hobgoblin issues (#60-somethings) They say Norman broke out of prison as the Green Goblin and tried to kill the President of the United States, again showing flashback images of Spider-man and Nick Fury.

and finally;

In issue #81-#82, with the return of The Black Cat, also comes a story where a few months back Felicia was stabbed in the stomach and thrown from a building. . .

I've looked through and I don't seem to be missing any issues, and these things seem to be a little too important to have just 'happened in between issues'. So am I just mildly retarded?(Don't answer that) or were these things actually never covered in the series?

I'm not exactly new with comics, I've loved them since I was a kid, but I don't follow full series very often. So if it's normal for stuff like this to happen in between issues, then just mention them next time a character appears in an isuue, then just disregard this post.

Spider-man first met Conners/Lizard in Ultimate Marvel Team-Up.

The Norman stuff happened in the Ultimate Six mini-series.

aah! right! I didn't even think about cross-overs with other Ultimate series! Thanks for clearing this up for me! it's been bugging me for a while.

The Black Cat thing happened in the pages of Ultimate Spider-Man itself, in the second Kingpin arc.

The Black Cat stabbing from Electra happened in issue 51 or 52 ???

She was not in costum as the cat but in work clothes, so it looks like somebody else got stabbed, but it was her.

She had short hair and was working as an accountant for kingpin.

I remember Peter finding out who the Black Cat was, and going to her apartment thinking that if he could find out, it would probably be likely that the Kingpin would aswell.

I must have a rusty memory, I remember pretty much everything from that issue other then her getting stabbed. I'll have to go back and reread it.

Thanks for the reply guys.
