Picked this up on a whim last time I went to our local library branch (they are now open!). I was tangentially aware this story was going on when I was a kid, I picked this up and it was pretty good. The art has the disadvantage of changing as the story switches across titles, so it is somewhat inconsistent. Still, an interesting start to a huge story and I’ll probably try and read the rest.

Is it weird that I enjoyed this? Or at least this part of the story. Reading further into the event shows why the Clone Saga has the reputation it does, but this first installment has an interesting premise and plenty of mystery. The issues written by J.M. DeMatteis are particularly good. Maybe it's because I'm a 90s kid, but I love the Scarlet Spider costume and think he was actually the more heroic of the two Spider-Men at the time. It's a shame that the event spiraled out of control but it got off to an interesting start.
