And one demon in particular — a very famous one for Marvel and X-fans — might just eat Spider-Man alive! Beset by nightmares whenever he falls asleep — and sometimes even when he’s awake — a weary Peter is in no condition to face…the Demon Bear! But with no rest in sight, the web-slinger will have little choice but to dig in and hang on — unless he wants to meet a grizzly end! Collecting DEADLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN #1-5.

The Doc Ock cover for Spider-Man #7 made me laugh out loud.
So the “What did Peter do?” arc is going to last at least four issues.
” Your opinion of who the hero is and who the villain is may end up at least blurred…”
Even with the usual exaggeration in mind, this doesn’t sound intriguing at all.
I mean, it’s not like Peter has never acted like a jerk or in questionable ways, especially when the plot demanded it, but here the comparison is with Norman Osborn.
Leave it to the MCU to depict heroes who act like villains, thank you.
