VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by Peter David, pencils by Roger Cruz, cover by Mike Wieringo. "Jumping the Tracks," part 2 of 3. The Hobgoblin from the year 2211 returns to plague Spider-Man! The time-traveling troublemaker has tipped Spider-Man's life upside down by resuscitating a major character from his past. Now the wall-crawler must tangle with a foe who has already bloodied his talons with the murder of future Spider-Men and plots to further ruin Peter Parker's life. What chance does our web-slinger have to set things right-and what will be the terrible cost?
BONUS REVIEW by W. DAL BUSH
Where's Doc Brown when you need him? This month's F'N Spider-Man (I love that title) is the second part of a story with more time-travel conundrums than you can shake a Causality Loop at, as we flashback/forward to events that occur/occured one month ago/two hundred and five years from now, depending on your temporal perspective and ability to conjugate verbs in the past-impossible-never tense. Whew! In other words, Future Hobgoblin lays out her plans and Spidey 2006 shows up for a few panels. A roller-coaster of self-negating fifth-dimensional brain-meltery. I give it 8 Grahams
