So it's six months after Loebimatum, New York has been rebuilt, and Peter is now working at a fast food joint.
There's a couple of big stuff in the issue (someone moves in with Peter, but I won't tell you who), and...
No, Aunt May's not walking in on the hanky panky, she's calling from downstairs.
And later...
*sighs* It really annoys me when writers do this--to give credibility to the new Mary Sue villain/hero (in case you don't recognize him, this is Ultimate Mysterio), they have him take out the preexisting old one to make him look 'badass'. Especially when the preexisting villain is far more interesting than the new one. Bendis has done this a number of times in the past, with the Hood and Sentry sticking out in my memory the most.
I can only hope that this is a red herring on Bendis's part. He told me on his messageboard that the Kingpin was one of his favorite characters to write, and IMO, he's definitely one of the characters that Bendis writes best. Maybe this will be a callback to his Daredevil run where gangster Sammy Silke orchestrated a Caesar-style coup on him and left Kingpin to die in a puddle of his blood. Kingpin later came back and crushed Silke's head like a watermelon.
