Date: 2024-01-18 03:03 am (UTC)Fisk's mini-arc here showed a good grasp of every aspect of his character, and its resolution was a solid belly laugh. "Boop!" The scenes of Masque and Janice sizing each other up, and maybe bonding a bit in spite of everything, worked too. Nice moment from Tombstone as well...there's something poetic about how Janice and Whitney have ended up in the same place, even though one of their fathers was an abusive sociopath and the other's love for his daughter has never been in doubt. The story still doesn't seem to know what to do with She-Hulk, but at least she's in character and helping out.
And yes, this story has been light on Peter's own involvement, but I don't mind that once in a while, especially since what he has been doing-- acting like a hero and trying to be wherever he needs to be to end the war-- is thoroughly in character and what I want to see from him.
Where was this smart, character-driven plotting at the start of this run? I'm scared that if I make any sudden moves, it'll evaporate back into unmotivated random happenstance.

Syndicate?) has an interesting thing going with the femme versions of Scorpion, Octopus, Scorpion, Trapster, Kraven, and Electro... heck, White Rabbit's the only original one in the bunch.
Maybe her team should expand. Pick up a female Rhino, female Mysterio, female Sandman (Quicksand?), and keep the trend going.

I would love for them to pick a female Mysterio. Maguire Beck is still around. Sure, Crime Master's Jack O Lantern said he killed all the other Jack O Lanterns, but if it ain't on panel, it ain't canon.
