Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Six

Ultimate Six 1-7

Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Kraven, Electro, and Sandman take on the Ultimates and Peter Parker.  (Norman Osborn considers a coerced Peter the sixth member.)

A fun enough action series, but not a lot of the character moments that make the main title shine.

By the way, what’s the point of having Joe Quesada draw the first eight pages of the mini-series, just to have Trevor Hairsine draw the rest?  As good as Quesada is, it’s just a distraction, and completely unnecessary.

I literally thought, "Hairsine's looking a lot like Quesada" before I noticed the credits.

Ultimate Spider-Man 51-59

The Black Cat steals a tablet from the Kingpin, who hires Elektra to get it back.  

Heh.  Catfight.

Then Peter fights Doc Ock against the backdrop of the Spider-Man movie.  (Directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire, naturally.)  Also, Gwen discovers Peter’s alter ego, which leads to a cute little moment where the kids all flop down on a bed:

Nice job by Mark Bagley.

This is still good stuff.  Not much else to say.
