Superior Spider-Man is a 2023 comic book from Marvel Comics. It's written by Dan Slott, with art by Mark Bagley, John Dell and Nathan Stockman, and color art by Edgar Delgado.The series is part of the wider Spider-Man franchise and is set in the shared Marvel Universe. It's a sequel to the original 2013 Superior Spider-Man series.At one point in the past, as told in the original 'Superior Spider-Man'' story, Otto Octavius, the supervillain known as Doctor Octopus, managed to upload his mind into Spider-Man's body. Otto then took over Peter Parker's life as well as Spider-Man's costumed career. Despite his original intentions, he became more heroic, eventually surrendering the body back to Peter's mind when faced with a villain he couldn't defeat himself.But that was a long time ago. In the present, Doctor Octopus is definitely a supervillain again, and his memories of that time are scrambled, leaving him unaware of Spider-Man's secret identity. However, the return of the superhuman Supernova, who was working with "Peter Parker" during Otto's time in Peter's body, starts to uncover some of that forgotten history.In parallel, Spider-Man is working with a sidekick, Spider-Boy, who was erased from history during one of their adventures. He's now been restored, but nobody remembers Spider-Boy - and, in his secret identity as Bailey Briggs, he no longer has a life to return to. Which also means that nobody except Bailey remembers some of the things that happened after Otto became Peter, when Otto started to worry that Bailey's powers would detect him as an imposter...The first issue was released November 15, 2023. | |

Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: Downplayed. In the first issue's backup story, the Inner Demons are sprawled out on the ground from being stabbed with their own weapons and beaten senseless by Otto, who smashed their faces into concrete. While blood can be seen when Bailey arrives, far less is shown than would be plausible given the injuries that Otto inflicted on them even with the Demons' Healing Factor taken into account. | |

Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_1c3a639e | comment |
Freak Lab Accident: Estrella Lopez is transformed into Supernova when she tries to prevent Otto from stealing the results of the work she solved. But she drops the tritium fusion reactor. The resulting reaction that spills over her turns into a living fusion reaction akin to a humanoid sun. Unlike the Human Torch, she can't turn it off, leaving her swearing revenge on Spider-Man for making her this way. | |

Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: Otto once contemplated killing Spider-Boy, but was unable to go through with it, muttering, "I—I can't strike a child." Unfortunately, he is fine with Murder by Inaction, refusing to let Spider-Man help Spider-Boy against Supernova and even taunting him over how Spider-Boy might be killed by Supernova. Supernova shows a callous disregard for the lives of others, nearly torching several people while trying to get at Spider-Man. But even she is horrified when she accidentally collapses a building on top of Spider-Boy while trying to scare him into divulging Spider-Man's location. She rushes to remove the rubble and apologizes to the barely conscious boy. | |

Good Thing You Can Heal | |
Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_3456f3c5 | comment |
Bailey is aghast when Otto (who took over Peter's body at this point in time) leaves the Inner Demons with lethal wounds, asking if "Spidey" straight up murdered them. Otto retorts that the Demons' remarkable healing powers will keep them alive, but Bailey notes that they're still in pain and that it's not like Spidey to be acting like this. | |

Kick the Dog: Doctor Octopus gleefully watches as Supernova attacks Spider-Man and Spider-Boy without any regard for the collateral damage she's inflicting in her misplaced retribution. After relearning Spider-Man's identity, Otto doubles down by preventing Peter from rushing to help Bailey. He taunts Peter over Bailey facing "certain death" and laughs as Peter grows increasingly frustrated and impatient with him. | |

Batman Gambit: In flashbacks, Otto is shown capturing Slyde by manipulating the criminal into taking a particular route so that he is thrown into the air and lands in the ocean, forcing Slyde to remove his suit as he will otherwise drown. In the present, Anna Maria manipulates Supernova into leaving her alone in her cell by reminding the other woman of how long she's spent trapped, prompting Supernova to leave the cell where she's trapped Anna Maria so that the other woman can work on breaking out of her cell. | |

After seeing Spider-Man dole out horrific injuries to the Inner Demons, Bailey tries to see into Peter's future to see what's wrong with him. But Otto refuses to let Bailey touch him, lest the boy reveal that Otto stole Peter's body. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: Once Supernova loses sight of Spider-Man, she starts targeting Spider-Boy in hopes of either getting the boy to spill Spider-Man's location or get Spider-Man to return and help his sidekick. Given how she's a living fusion reaction who can incinerate virtually anything in her path, there's nothing Bailey can do but run and try to keep others out of the line of fire. Even a grazing hit from Supernova melts straight through his Bug Pack and forces him to burn himself getting it off before the rest of him catches fire. | |

Psychological Projection | |
Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_3e87fc1f | comment |
Psychological Projection: Otto's "The Reason You Suck" Speech for Bailey reeks of this. He accuses Bailey of being "an impostor" when Otto himself stole Peter's identity and life and calls Bailey a "sad, broken little boy destined for failure" when Otto himself was trapped in a decaying body after many, many defeats at the hands of the wall-crawler. He ends his tirade by declaring that Bailey will never be Spider-Man, the very identity that Otto is trying to subsume. At the end of issue #2 when Otto shows up to recruit Spider-Man's help in rescuing Anna Maria and Peter naturally assumes at first that he's looking to continue their fight, he impatiently cuts the hero off and declares that he has no time for Peter's "petty rivalry" with him, as if he hadn't been obsessively trying to take down the web-slinger for his entire super-villain career. | |

He does this with a searing "The Reason You Suck" Speech that reduces Bailey to tears, something that the Fantastic Four stand-ins call Otto out on as he mentally pats himself on the back for it. | |

But she's anything but calm, screaming for bloody revenge on Spider-Man and constantly blasting away in his direction. Much of her text is written in bold to emphasize the venom and hatred in her voice and she curses him when he vanishes into a crowd. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Mr. Negative tries to steal the Fantastic Four's Negative Zone power batteries and the Fantasticar in hopes of using them to augment his powers and become unstoppable. But as the First Family's stand-ins explain, of course the Fantastic Four would lock their car and prevent it from taking off without permission. Near the end of the first issue, Peter gives Supernova the slip and tries to blend into a crowd to deny her the satisfaction of attacking him. He hopes that she'll give up and try looking elsewhere. But Peter underestimates just how unstable and violent she is, as she starts taking out her frustration on anyone who might know where Spider-Man is in hopes of drawing him out. In issue 6, Otto attempts to take over Peter's mind again and is totally taken back by how much more prepared Peter is, making it clear the only reason it worked last time was because he got Peter at his weakest. | |

But while her gripes with Otto are understandable, it was her inadequate handling of the fusion reactor that led to the accident. | |

Secret-Keeper: Anna Maria Marconi is Otto's ex-girlfriend and is aware of Peter's Secret Identity as Spider-Man. When Supernova confronts them both, Anna Maria covers Peter's wrist with her hands to conceal his web-shooters from the supervillain. | |

Healing Factor | |
Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_a5fb0d24 | comment |
Healing Factor: Mr. Negative's powers grant his underlings, the Inner Demons, the ability to rapidly heal their wounds. This lets them survive being stabbed, pummeled, and getting their skulls cracked by the Superior Spider-Man, albeit not without a great deal of pain and significant recovery time. Bailey suffers burns on his fingers from prying off his flaming Bug Pack before getting a building collapsed on top of him by Supernova. After Peter manages to get Bailey to a hospital, the doctors assure Peter that Bailey's superhuman metabolism will let him recover within a day or two following surgery. | |

Flying Firepower | |
Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_a9e14a3b | comment |
Flying Firepower: New villain Supernova was a scientist named Estrella Lopez who developed a method to harness a tritium fusion reaction that resulted in her transforming into a living sun, giving her the ability to fly and shoot flames and energy beams akin to an even more powerful Human Torch. The problem is that she can't turn it off, leading her to curse Spider-Man for her predicament, especially after Otto trapped her in a capsule with the intent of leaving her there forever. | |

A nurse in the hospital where Peter takes an injured Bailey angrily criticizes Spider-Man (contrasting him with Peter for bringing the boy in) for involving a child in a super-villain battle, saying that he should be locked up for that. She obviously doesn't know the full story, but as Peter was already guilting himself over Bailey being hurt he doesn't contradict her. | |

No-Sell: Supernova is constantly burning with energy comparable to a miniature sun. This means that she'll burn away pretty much any attempt to restrain or bind her, as Peter's and Otto's webbing is vaporized within seconds of touching her. | |

Metaphorically True: In issue #3, Peter and Octopus make an uneasy alliance, and the spiders in the glass box in Peter's lab keep insulting Otto, who complains about it. Peter answers that spiders have a mind of their own, which is true: they are the remains of an Alternate Self of Spider-Man called Spiders-Man. | |

Otto once contemplated killing Spider-Boy, but was unable to go through with it, muttering, "I—I can't strike a child." Unfortunately, he is fine with Murder by Inaction, refusing to let Spider-Man help Spider-Boy against Supernova and even taunting him over how Spider-Boy might be killed by Supernova. | |

Negative goes on to say that he didn't think Spider-Man had this level of ruthlessness in him, to which Otto remarks that this is merely a taste of what he's capable of. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Bailey is aghast when Otto (who took over Peter's body at this point in time) leaves the Inner Demons with lethal wounds, asking if "Spidey" straight up murdered them. Otto retorts that the Demons' remarkable healing powers will keep them alive, but Bailey notes that they're still in pain and that it's not like Spidey to be acting like this. The Fantastic Four also call out Otto for his "The Reason You Suck" Speech for Bailey. Medusa says no child should be treated like that and She-Hulk asks what the hell is wrong with Spidey. A nurse in the hospital where Peter takes an injured Bailey angrily criticizes Spider-Man (contrasting him with Peter for bringing the boy in) for involving a child in a super-villain battle, saying that he should be locked up for that. She obviously doesn't know the full story, but as Peter was already guilting himself over Bailey being hurt he doesn't contradict her. | |

Just a Kid: Justified. Peter forbids Bailey from taking on A-List supervillains like Mysterio or Doctor Octopus on account of the boy's age and experience. Bailey agrees and offers to perform crowd control and get people out of the line of fire when Supernova attacks them.When Peter tries to defuse the situation by vanishing into a crowd, Bailey is left to face Supernova's wrath alone after Doc Ock attacks Peter to prevent him from rejoining the fray. Bailey suffers burns on his fingers after Supernova lights his Bug Pack ablaze and is knocked unconscious after Supernova collapses a building on top of him. | |

The Unmasking: After the defeat of Mirage in the first issue's Batman Cold Open, Peter and Bailey sit on a rooftop, eat ice cream and talk. Bailey's just about to completely remove his mask when Peter realises they're being filmed by a news channel and stops him. It doubles as foreshadowing for the end of the issue, when Otto's Ocktoid drone successfully films Peter unmasking, and Doctor Octopus suddenly remembers who Spider-Man really is. | |

Unskilled, but Strong | |
Superior Spider-Man (2023) (Comic Book) / int_f25b1ae6 | comment |
Unskilled, but Strong: Supernova is an incredibly powerful villain that Peter compares to "the Human Torch times ten" thanks to her being essentially a living fusion reaction. She causes enormous collateral damage without even trying to and Peter is powerless to subdue her after she ambushes him and Bailey. But given that Estrella was a scientist before the accident, she has little experience fighting superheroes. As a result, Peter is able to give her the slip relatively easily and blend into a crowd, leaving her with no one to vent her frustration on. | |
