July 9, 2008 10:28 pm Great cover. Also, in the 'Asterisk in Comic Books' iFanboy mini podcast I think Conor had a good arguement but was a little harsh on the use of asterisks in Amazing Spider-Man. I'm sure most if not all the rest of comics that use asterisks do it seriously, and it's nice to see the creators be candid and actually use asterisks to a comedic effect that fits the book right now. As Conor also said in the podcast they do use it sometimes to point out back issues that a reader should check out, it's not like they're completely being, for lack of a better term, sacrilegious. I don't think it's a bad gimmick and I look forward to them each issue.
