This thread's for the Spider-Man comics and spin-offs, whether they're decades old or brand new.
- Apart from the main Marvel Universe titles, Ultimate Spider-Man, Spider-Man "What If?" stories, crossovers, guest appearances in other books, Alternate Universe tales and things like Marvel's manga adaptations are all on-topic here.
- Spider-Man 'family' books are on-topic (as are their own crossovers, guest appearances etc.) - e.g. Spider-Man 2099, Miles Morales, Spider-Woman, Silk, Spider-Gwen, Venom, Carnage, Black Cat, Red Goblin and Spider-Verse.
- Characters and comics that originated in Spider-Man but are no longer directly connected to the spider-franchise (e.g. Punisher, Silver Sable) are not on-topic, unless you're discussing historical connections and crossovers. If in doubt, check before you write a long post. If this isn't the right place, there's a more general Marvel Comics thread
which covers them.
Technically, Marvel's Infinity Comics (and their predecessors, Infinite Comics) are webcomics, not comic books, but it's fine to talk about their Spider-Man stories here.
Discussions that are only about Spider-Man adaptations in other media (films, video games etc.) are off-topic, but discussing the differences between the adaptations and the original comics is fine - as long as spoilers for the adaptations are tagged.
Please follow the spoiler policy rules
- tag spoilers for the latest issues, for any previews or content leaks, and for off-topic comics. When including spoiler tags, try to write so that tropers can make an informed decision before viewing them (e.g. which series and issue will they spoil?).

The cover is "clickbait." No kiss happened.
Also if the A.I. Harry from Legacy of Evil is the mastermind, that technically means the story did not lie about Kindred being Harry. Just sort of a proxy thing.
The supernatural element is the only thing that still needs an explanation. A.I. Harry never had these resurrection powers and it can't ALL be clones/robots. There's also a matter of Mysterio being approached while in the actual Hell.

Huh. Someone remembers me. Didn't expect that :D

Oh right. Yeah. It's still a fakeout kiss. Sarah comes on to him, and Peter's immediate reaction the very next page is "NO NO NO NOPE NOPE NOPE." The clickbait cover makes it look like an actual thing.

- proof. If you're wondering how I have this crap on hand, I have nearly every Spider-Man comic up until Superior.

So Sins Past has been rendered irrelevant and Norman and Gwen never ever ever did it and Harry just made Norman think he did out of spite.
Thank you, Nick Spencer for hakai-ing that piece of Spidey lore into oblivion. But then again, it's just hitting me that A) Harry probably did the same to Gwen, so he's not exactly the better man in this situation and B) if Harry has been dead this whole time...then who's the Harry that's been with Carlie?

Maybe I've just become inured to it but so far this doesn't even seem like the most convoluted Osborn scheme we've had.
We still don't know all the details yet, but the page was leaked where the AI Harry makes fun of Norman and tells him he's an idiot for thinking he had kids with Gwen.
