Clone Saga: Revamped Mysterio look
The new Ultimate Mysterio looks a lot like an older Mysterio, namely the one that appeared in Media Blizzard, one of the few "Ben Reilly as Spider-Man" stories that didn't involve Peter Parker.

From AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #408.

I mention this over on the ol' NoScans, but you know what I'd love to see?

A series of super-thick trades ala the four-volume Age of Apocalypse, going through the whole Clone Saga. It'd be a LONG series of volumes, but I'd love to see it.

I'm both ashamed and proud to say that I owned MOST of the Clone Saga, myself. And at the time, I actually enjoyed it. I managed to hold on for a few years of it, up until they did the arc with Gaunt and such.

Most of the Clone Saga isn't really that bad, the Powers That Be just kept "baiting and switching" us over which was the "real" Peter Parker. And when it turned out Ben was the "real deal" the fans went apeshit.

And it went on to such a degree, they decided to bring Norman Osborn back to make him the big mastermind. I like Dark Reign, but I've never been crazy (pun intended) about Norman still being alive as a warped hybrid of Lex Luthor (billionaire with political influence) and the Joker (crazy murderer).
