An important moment in Spider-Man history, but it got there in a fairly standard way. It did remind me how well-rounded a character MJ is, at least compared to other female characters in comics at this time.
The Spider Slayer subplot was funny in a bizarre way - Alastair Jr. puts a trace on Spider-Man, sees that he's going to Pittsburgh...so he ships his giant killer robot in boxes to Pittsburgh. Complete with a scene where he yells at airport employees who are moving the robot pieces into the plane. "Be careful with those boxes! They contain important medical equipment!"
He can't wait for Spider-Man to get back to NY? Is he on some kind of "kill Spider-Man" deadline?
Ah, Spider-Man. I love how almost none of his adventures involve saving the world, and almost all of them involve fighting some random weirdo.
