I hated the sucky anti-climatic ending the Hobgoblin got as Kingsley should go out fighting either Spider-Girl or her father-not her shit clone that nobody cares about. It sucks how they made him kick everyone’s ass and then get stabbed so easily. Plus the series should have ended with the final defeat of the Hobgoblin and not May facing her clone in the one-shot that followed after. The one good thing is that if they ever decide to bring Kingsley back in the MC2 Universe, it could easily be explained that he used a dupe that April ended up killing as we all know decoys are Kingsley’s MO. Anyways, just my rant as a Hobgoblin fan.
I was the biggest Spider-Girl fan around and while the final issue that wrapped everything up was well written. I do miss May “Mayday” Parker quite a bit. It’s amazing just how this series was pretty much sent to the end piece just to get Arana as Spider-Girl, which failed now once, but three times, but at least Tom DeFalco, Ron and Sal were able to end the series on a high note and a satisfying ending.
