Amazing Spider-man #593 and X-Men Origins: Wolverine

This issue was just plain disappointing. Peter seems to be fine with the whole Aunt May thing although he is disgusted. We get a couple cool little pages about Spidey continuing to save people 24/7, which is kinda cool. Then, Peter get lured into a trap by JJJ. He beats up on the troops. Then there is a pretty awesome little conversation in which Spidey admits that he's not really doing this to annoy JJJ, but more to annoy Norman Osborn. He kind of discovers this for himself as well. So, that should get interesting. Maybe, make a nice bridge into American Son. (which I am pumped about BTW) Then, we finally see this new Vulture. He eats people. He has these big vampire-ish teeth and natural wings. Plus, he shoots acid. No, really? He does. This acid supposedly has blinded Spider-man. Like we're supposed to believe that for a second. Anyway, we'll have to see what happens next, but right now this new Vulture is not working for me. I perfer the green one, Adrian Toomes.

This movie was just about how I expected. Below Parr. Hugh Jackman tried way too hard to make the character macho, which makes it unbelievable. He did a much better job in the x-men movies. Sabretooth was amazing. He kept me interested. The story made me laugh more than anything, like the fact that his girlfriend was never really dead and that Sabretooth was his brother. These are both additions to the story as far as I know. Blob was too funny, but then again he had to be. I didn't even know that was Emma Frost until I read the reviews later. Cyclops was ok. The fact that Prof. X showed up made me almost pee my pants I was so excited. And don't even get me started on Deadpool. He absolutely rocked the first half of the movie, but they destroyed him in the second. I hated it. And now he's getting his own movie. Well, I hope they fix him first, because no one is going to pay $10 to see that freak dance around for a whole movie. Please Marvel, FIX THIS. It is one of the main reasons I didn't like this movie. Other than that, the story was silly, but the action scenes KICKED BUTT! Hopefully, Wolverine II can tell a better story and make me love the movie. I give this a B.

Amazing Spider-man #592

Eww! I'm still disgusted by that image. This was on the last page of this week's issue and almost ruined the whole issue for me. Other than that it was a good issue though. So, we start out with Peter wishing he could get away from it all and he notices that someone's been cleaning up his place, but we don't know who. It's a chick with black hair. My guess is that it might be MJ with her hair dyed. No idea though. Anyway, then we see JJJ and JJJsr arguing about Spider-man only to have him show up and decide to be Spidey 24/7. So, that's what he does for three straight days. No Peter. Just Spidey. There's a really cute scene with a Kitten in there. Funny stuff. Meanwhile, there's a new Vulture in town and this one's red. Hopefully it's as good or better than the new Kraven, who I enjoyed. Anyway, Peter sneaks into Aunt May's house for some food and a shower when he hears a creaking noise in the bedroom. And he walks in to see the above image. Ewww! She's old and he's old. That's just disgusting. What is the point of having something like that in the story. I just lost a lot of respect for Mark Waid. P.S. Haven't seen the Wolverine movie. Get back to you when I do though.
