Turns out, even in Peter Parker's body, Otto still can't take a joke! And most of all, what lessons does he take away from Otto's tenure as Spider-Man? Following an attack by a mutated , in which it takes Marconi hostage in exchange for the "real" Spider-Man and the web-slinger himself arriving, Octavius realizes the error of his ways and reverses the consciousness transfer, allowing Spider-Man to defeat Venom and eventually return himself to his original body.
One week later, a funeral is held for Elliot Tolliver that is attended by Max Modell, Anna Maria, Emma, and James.
He is sweet, considerate, thoughtful and significantly less creepy than usual! In some cases we saw how his newly militant approach to crime-fighting made him a nightmare for foes like Kingpin or the Sinister Six.
While not having a great deal of connection to the other two books, its focus on D-List villains trying to make a name for themselves underneath Otto's watchful gaze was and still is endlessly entertaining.
Rather then wanting to go to war with "The Superior Spider-Man," the Goblin instead offers a partnership, a deal Otto immediately refuses.
After his transportation, the Superior Spider-Man believed he was encountering a prior version of Peter Parker as Spider-Man, as opposed to a future version since he believed he had defeated Parker permanently.
