I liked this issue quite a bit.  Its not as good as some of the previous issues of ASM have been, but then again, it would be hard for this issue to be as good and still accomplish what it is meant to.  This issue basically gets readers up to speed on recent events in Mary Jane's life, explains why she has returned to New York, and what shes up to now that she is back.  It also foreshadows/sets up upcoming story arcs; the return of Black Cat and the Ben Reily arc.  I'm glad they didn't drag out the whole Pete and Michelle thing and that Pete even flat out told her it was the Chamelion and not himself, though I'm in no way suprised she didn't believe him.  I wouldn't mind if they have Spidey and Black Cat get together and stop with the whole Pete needing a girlfriend thing, at least for a while.  I always liked the Black Cat/Spidey stories but I do eventually hope to see Pete and MJ either get back together or resolve the whole OMD/BND crap.  Either way, ASM has been pretty damn good lately and I'm excited for some of the upcoming issues.
