I wish this was perfect. Or an amazing conclusion to the first arc.
But unfortunately it isn't. There is a lot of amazing stuff here, chemistry between Harry and Peter, amazing art and action.
But MJ and Richard were disappointment. Richard feels like a non-character and MJ feels too perfect. There is no struggle, no doubts, not even worries or arguments. Just text-book perfectism, which is nice, but not exciting.
I don't want massive argument or anything, but something. Right now I have gotten very little from MJ as a character and I hoped this would give us something.
I love MJ. I love her and Peter together, they are my favorite couple in comics and one of my favorites in fiction. So I wanna see her more, as three-dimensional character, not just as "perfect wife".
But I know we have only seen 6 issues. My expectations were high because this series overall has been so good. So we might get more out of MJ and Richard later. more
