Superior Spider-Man #1 Ending Reveal - MASSIVE SPOILERS - You've been warned!

Exactly. It was an incredible cop out. And even though we all knew it wasn't going to last, this immediately made the series just about waiting for Peter to come back.

Agree. And it seems to invalidate the really powerful potential for character growth that insinuated was going to take place at the end of #700.

I'm a huge fan of progression. Dick Grayson becoming Batman. Bucky becoming Cap. Those things really worked for me. And while Otto becoming Peter is a bit odd, the same principle applies. It was / is a real opportunity to do something new and fresh w/ "Peter Parker." I mean...we;'re looking at the same character we've generally enjoyed for years...with someone else's voice in his head. Someone who's changing. Growing. becoming something superior to not just what they were - but to what Peter was, as well. Or at least trying to.

I like Slott's story telling...but reintroducing Peter SO soon really came across as invalidating of the final pages of #700, and a big, missed opportunity in regards to some progressive story telling for Otto and eventually for Peter.

What Slott needs to do is have Maha Yogi make an appearance. With his mystical ties he can help Ock get rid of Pete for good.
