I have to agree with Kelly on just how screwed Norah felt at the end of American Son. She wanted the big time, got the big time, and chickened out when she could have told the story of her career. That must suck.

This was one of my favoriite Spiderman stories in a long, long time.

i never read previews or interviews before story arcs so this was well timed. i do have to disagree 100% with this statement.

For “Amazing Spider-Man” #599, Kelly collaborated with Stephen Segovia, who drew pages #1-5; Marco Checchetto, who handled pages #6-19’ and Paulo Siqueira and Amilton Santos, who took care of pages #19-23. “Everybody did such an amazing job with a huge challenge. Scheduling on this book can be a bear and my editors Steve Wacker and Tom Brennan do an incredible job,” Kelly said. “We were getting down to the wire and this was the way we needed to go. I really got to hand it to Steve, he did such a fantastic job of deciding which artist was appropriate for which scene. It's sort of shocking how even though these artists all have clearly different styles the book flowed really well together. And these are really talented artists, so it was an embarrassment of riches. Everyone chipped in to make sure the book came out properly and they're all really great guys.”

the art was hard to read what was going on. i didnt catch the thing with norman discovering norah because i couldnt make out the art. some scenes werent bad but as a whole i didnt like the art.
