laura_seabrook | Ultimate Clone War Saga (Reply)

The collected volume of the Clone War Saga for Ultimate Spiderman turned up in the local library, and I naturally borrowed it. I wasn't reading Spiderman much when the first clone saga unravelled so I can't really compare this to it. I must say though that I thoroughly go into it. All this is probably old hat to everyone here, I really liked Spider Woman in it.

The thing is, she's a clone of Peter Parker (actually, almost everybody is in the story) but one whose genes were altered at inception so she'd be female. Uh ha. There's a scene in the story where she says goodbye and they hug, and in that scene really moved me. See, I'm trans and if they ever could clone a copy of my that was XX and not the XY original, I'd be first in line!

So I was impressed. I borrowed another collected volume as well and that one was titled "War of the Symbiotes". Haven't read it yet and of course the first guess would be Venon vs Carnage, but in the Ultimate continuity that seems unlikely, though there's probably an even chance that Spider Woman will be involved. I'll have the fun of finding out soon.
