[@otadota8864]

I hate how Zebb Wells has said he doesn't even like Ben Reilly so instead of letting someone else write for him he's turning him into a stupidly written villain Ben deserves to be the Sensational Spider-Man, not character assassinated like this

[@otadota8864]

Don't even get me started on Peter working with Osborn and wearing that dumb suit

[@marlongonzalez3980]

Zeb Wells isn’t the problem, he’s just doing a story that got approved by the higher ups. Seems as if it’s something that they want and Zebb is there to be the one who fans get angry at.

[@buttmuncher-cm5tl]

We should doxx him on twitter

[@hunterxfinity1791]

Personally I support ben being turned into chasm as the powers and the suit are amazing, even despite the story being mid at best. It could always be written better. But I believe that as there is the marvel multiverse, that the sensational spiderman should also confront this villainous side of their character in future stories

[@joshferguson6572]

They are really messing up the chance to capitalize on the buzz from the new generation of Spiderman fans created by the new movies with the boring and stupid stories of this Spiderman and even superior Spiderman I thought really wasn't very good when will they get a half decent writer for Spiderman? there is a huge fan base and even I a huge fan didn't have much of a want to check it out because of how bad it has been and unfortunately I was right I didn't even watch it all because it couldn't keep my attention. Here's hoping it changes for the better Spiderman and Stan Lee deserves better.

[@JVDubs]

Ben was supposed to be how Spider-Man was still who he was if you stripped away all of his support structure. Still a inherently good man, even if he had none of the people he loved. Marvel really screwed the pooch with this whole arch. They should have just sent him on his way again to roam the US and carve out his own like sort of like the 70s hulk TV series. A smaller story, a more personal story, about someone trying to find themselves while simultaneously hiding who they are (a clone of Peter P and another spider powered person).

[@aster1760]

The only issue would then be that him and Kaine would be sharing the same arcs and the same hero name. Kaine already did an arc of traveling the US to find his place in the world and carve out his own path as more than a parker clone. Hell after superior and right before the return of Oc, Otto did that arc too! If anything, what Ben REALLY needs is to find an identity that is WHOLY his own, or finally reconcile with Kaine so they can be the double scarlet spiders togeather, being the support both have lost over the years.

[@invisiblesun6595]

@@aster1760 I hope that never happens. Kinda like the differences between the two of them. Even though Kaine is no longer degenerating and isn't technically 'crazy' he still has to live with what he's done. Also, apparently he never got the scientific acumen uploaded into him. That and no spider-sense. Kaine is always going to look for reasons to hate his 'brother'. It actually reflects the contempt he has for himself. He just likes to vent on Ben.

[@pickedceasar1216]

@@invisiblesun6595 see that’s kinda just making all of the Spider-Men suffer. At that point you’re just making Ben like how Venom was for Pete for awhile in that all he sees is a monster or a bad guy

[@invisiblesun6595]

​@@pickedceasar1216TBH I wished that Marvel had actually kept Ben in the grave. There really was no need to bring Ben back, only to change him to an 'evil' Spider-Man. Marvel had plenty of mileage they could've gotten out of Kaine Parker, whom I found far more interesting as a clone and a character due to his unique circumstances. Ben at this point is just an evil clone stereotype.

[@zacharybosley1935]

​@@invisiblesun6595i think theres a lot more value to Ben's struggles as having "nothing but a chasm" than your typical clone story

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I have a theory: Originally, I thought that Ben Reilly is suddenly having a resurgence because people who remember him and were fans of him in the 90's are writing for comics now. But I theorize that the writers weren't fans of him at all. Because every modern appearance of Ben since Clone Conspiracy has painted him as a villain, a jerk, or both. So what if the current writers remember him, but actually hated Ben for daring to claim to be the original Spider-Man and replacing Peter as Spider-Man?

[@moopersworthninjason42nd81]

It totally makes sense that these current writers are being little bitches. Hell, I bet you they all voted for Jason to die that one time

[@rookiedrifter4273]

It's not that, its very blatantly obvious to anybody who's read a Batman comic; they're making him into Jason Todd, but following through on it awfully because they don't understand what made Jason a good and interesting character.

[@Graphomite]

I like the illustrations of this comic. The choice of colors are cool. I tend to get a little bored of the super-neat pen-and-ink traditional look most superhero comic book artists abide by. I get why. Bold lines. Stark contrasts. It pop on a page. Makes everything legible on a pannel stuffed 6x10 page... But it is nice to get this painterly looking style, too. Everything looks a little more fantastical and fairytale-esque, yet also not cartoonish. And like I said, the colors are great. Ya don't really consider how much extra time/thought/effort gets put into changing chromatics/dramatic-lighting every pannel without seeming inconsistant. And making it look good and artly and not just be a random, distracting mess. I guess the color guy is different than the illustrator in most Marvel comics? Not entirely sure. But I guess if your job is only to color things in, it's not quite as impressive that you'd prefer to be artsy about it rather than repeating the same solid colors/shading.

[@bizzerdman2093]

Honestly I think it is over hated. Heck it's not even the first time Ben broke bad (clone conspiracy). I'm not saying I love this story or this run, but I don't feel hate or dislike for it either. I understand the complaints, but I don't agree with all of them.

[@king1368]

1:00:33 I agree with the ben Reilly being a villain I mean the suit looks dope in the new powers are dope as fuck to, but him being a villain, because he lost most of his memory as Peter Parker‘s memory, and his own memory of where he came from, and how he was created it was, it’s just just devastatingly sad to see Ben. Riley is a dope ass character. I think he should be a hero just like Peter Parker Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, I mean all the spider heroes he should be a hero just like them. I understand he’s a clone of Peter, but he was so he still has a good heart and soul just like Peter, because Peter is a good heart and soul because of his family even know he doesn’t know his parents his uncle and aunt was there for him, and even though Ben didn’t have that he still has the same soul in mind and heart just like Peter so him being a villain sucks but even so he still looks dope in the new costume and powers but I say you should keep that and still be a hero because he’s still a dope ass character and I mean that to the bottom of my heart

[@cesarvictorino8624]

If you can see Spider Man with any other power or powers what would it be?

[@TheCelticTiger32]

Being able to have full control over his erections. Like on command, and he gets an instant boner. It would be useful in battle because he'll be up against some guy, and all of a sudden, there will be a bulge coming from his costume. The assailant will be distracted or too freaked out to fight, and spiderman will win.

He CREATED an enemy he didn't even have to create because "herp derp, muh feelings."
