User blog comment:MarvelFan2012/My thoughts on the Superior Spider-Man/@comment-5977347-20130510020533/@comment-3317214-20130510023302

1) This story is just as much of a cash cow as any. I don't keep up with the sales statistics, so I could be wrong, but I don't imagine it sells outrageously more than some Avengers titles. But here's the thing. Yes, Marvel is a company. Yes, they do make some things happen to try and make money. But they're also writers. They're still trying to write stories. Having Otto inside Peter's body isn't any less of a story than what the Avengers are dealing with right now. Superior Spider-Man is NOT just about money.

2) The message isn't that evil wins. That's a stupid message, and the story isn't trying to underline that. This isn't the end of the story. There's no winner.

3) Well, Peter could've given his body to Otto, but I see no reason as to why he would've.

4) The Spider-Man comic isn't about Peter winning everything. Sometimes he has his lows. And this one is pretty darn low. But it'll clear up one day, and the story of Peter struggling with Otto within his own body is fantastic. The story of Otto going around impersonating Peter is fantastic. But it's a different Spider-Man. Just try and enjoy the ride.
