Jackpot of the week

This week's issue of Amazing Spider-Man saw a return that everyone saw coming but in a way that I have to admit - I didn't see.

I honestly didn't expect Mary Jane to show up as scumbag actor Bobby Carr's boyfriend.

I'm still pretty sure that MJ's deal with the devil involved her remembering the past (and therefore the marriage and how happy they were) on the condition that Peter doesn't - so I can't help but think this thing she has for Carr is part of a grand scheme relating to her Jackpot identity.

What?

She's not Jackpot?

Like hell, I say.

Anyway, Carr's hit the jackpot this week...and artist Marcos Martin appears to have become the bizarre lovechild of Darwyn Cooke and Tim Sale. Er, in an artistic way, anyway...


Points to note: she's reading Faust (of deal with the devil fame) and her dialog is...

..but as we all know, if it's magic, you don't need to explain it!
