The controversial miniseries from 2006 spawns a very similar sequel.

You may not have thought that 2006's controversial Spider-Man : Reign miniseries required a sequel nearly two decades later, but that's exactly what Marvel Comics is giving everyone this week. Writer and artist Kaare Andrews returns to his story of an aging Peter Parker in Spider-Man : Reign 2, and the results are about what you'd expect. Reign 2 #1 summons a couple of meritable ideas, but those fresh concepts are drowned out by a tidal wave of nonsense.

Much to Peter's dismay, he's awoken by a young vigilante known as Kitty-Kat, who was hired to bring him back to the real world so he can save it. Somehow, things only get more unhinged from there. The time travel element that will likely influence the rest of the series appears to be taking away from perhaps the best idea Reign 2 had going for it. This seemingly hopeless future, where the people of New York face an almost certain apocalypse while under the thumb of a tyrant is devastatingly relevant in 2024. There's a layer of reliance on technology that also seems worth exploring.
