As annoying as the Clone Saga was at certain points, It has the best variant cover. All are well done but that Clone cover is great.

The 2nd one gave me goosebumps. Watching that on-screen is going to be emotional.

Gwen Cover, Symbiote Cover and, Clone cover. They remind me of when Amazing Spider-man was this world you could just escape to. And when Spidey's adventures were [frick]ing crazy. Shit man. Big ups to the artist. I usually don't collect. But I will be trying to get these.

I look at the Gwen cover and it reminds of one of Spidey's darkest moments. it's like he was trying to reason with them. It felt like he was gonna die. And his thoughts were Gwen. And They were delighted to beat him to death. Civil War. The Last Great Marvel Story.

I don't read comics but if marvel reboots and starts over with DC I might pick up some issues. Hey can you subscribe to get comics in the mail?

They're very reminiscent of Tim Sale's art, but without the ink wash.

Clones!

I'm glad that how in the last few years, Marvel has really embraced the Clone Saga.

Yeah, it was far from perfect, but it was such a big piece of Spider-Man's history that it deserves to be acknowledged.

@ CaptainObvious

In your opinion do you think the Death of Gwen Stacy will have the same impact or will it be seen as Rachel Dawes ripoff?
