Peter and Gwen Stacy are a couple; not sure if I missed that. "Mysterio" makes his appearance here, and gains a rep by killing the Kingpin (okay, can you spell "continuity"? Sure. I knew you could).Johnny Storm moves in with the Parkers. Then Bobby Drake (Iceman from the X-Men) moves in. And the new super-hero in town turns out to be Kitty Pryde, sporting some very un-Kitty like powers. And if that's not enough to satisfy, there's a whole bunch of emotional stuff between MJ and Peter and Gwen and Kitty and Kong, and some very nice artwork besides. Very nice book, and I'm relieved to see the Ultimate Spider-Man line is alive and kicking. ( )
