Despite the poor amnesia idea, at least spider-man doesn't get his memory back fast and suddenly to defeat Octopus. The development is also credible and quite good executed, with the rich supporting characters helping to feel the anguish over Parker's disappearance, adding a promising new one on Gwen's father.
Aunt May is so extremely gullible and naive, that borders the dumb characters' zone. On the contrary, Doc Octopus is becoming a very interesting character. Another cool cover by John Romita, that keeps drawing one of the best spider-man art so far in the series and Gwen is close to the character that we all know.
We'll see where the amnesia plot goes, but i hope they don't drag it unnecessarily making it boring and they are capable of maintaining the interest.
