Superior Spider-Man #4 *spoilers* and discussion

[Nefarius]

Probably irritated that Gobby managed to one-up him. Ock gets to kill an important supporting character, major villain kudos. Green Goblin then goes and kills of the hero's love interest! It's way more personal and important, some old cop or the (at the time) One True Love of Spidey. Just look at how the two stories are remembered. Die hard Spider-fans remember Captain Stacy's death, but it's Gwen's death that more casual fans will know about.

Οf course,Norman was a small fish compared to Otto at that time being.Green Goblin was a would be crime lord that later became to obsessed with Spidey that only lately,he put his attention into other things.Ock always had plans for world domination or/and mass murder.Dr Octopus,before the elevation of Norman into an Avenger foe,was the only foe of Spider-man who could be a major world threat.

Is it wrong of me to want The Superior Adventures of Doctor Octopus and the Living Brain as a title all its own? :(

Ha! That would rule...Bring back the old Marvel Team-Up! Or just put the Living Brain in Avenging every month with Spock.

I thought it was decent. I can't recall when a Spidey book portrayed a villain so brutally. I mean, they always do shitty things, but it felt a bit more explicit in this issue.

Soooooo still not reading it.

Suuuuuuure.

Not sure if this has been brought up, but who was the girl that gave him the tutor card and vanished? Just some unimportant random student or there any chance it'll be a new character? Just got me thinking it was weird how she just disappeared before seeing her

There's a preview for issue #6 that shows a very tiny girl getting out of an equally tiny car. I suspect that's the character. She's someone we have not met yet.

I see some previews with her and i think that it could be a nice addiction and potentian girlfriend for SpOck.She is a genius and Otto could find in her a person to speak on equal terms.Also,people tend to mock her because she is a dwarf,as we see in a preview that would remember Otto's mockering from school bullies.Besides,Otto is one who prefers a woman for her mind and spirit rather than body,as we saw with Stunner.
