My first intro to the clone saga has been the recent ASM title and new Bein Reilly spin off.
If the first issue it says Ben Reilly learned he was the βrealβ Spider-Man..
So does that mean Ben Reilly is the Spider-Man we are reading about during the entire silver age run up until he encounters the jackal?
This whole is confusing and I would just like some clarification
Thanks
Why?
So I read the first issue of "Ben Reilly: Spider-man" and I have some thoughts I wanted to share.
Years ago when I was in elementary school and just getting into Spider-man comics I went on a trip to the beach with my dad. We stayed at my grand mother's house and one day my dad went out for a run while I stayed at the house. When he came back he revealed he had run past a house that was having a garage sale, and that it looked like they were selling comics. When we returned to the sale he bought a bunch of Spider-man comics for me that I picked out based on the cover art. Almost all of those comics were from JM DeMatteis's run on Spectacular Spider-man, although I didn't know that at the time. When I read them it was an interesting experience. I found them a little creepy in places (the pages in one issue that were just nothing but repeated images of Harry Osborn smiling in a straight jacket are still burned into my mind), but the stories really captivated me in a way that no other comic had. It was a darker take on Spider-man than I was used to, but seeing a more mature Peter Parker and a more angry Peter Parker was fascinating to me. I think I liked it because since Peter was older in those issues that I was used to, I was kind of getting a window into adult hood and the adult psyche. Unfortunately I no longer have those comics because they were not in great shape and I didn't know how to take preserve them a kid. However, years passed and I would remember them fondly and later revisit them digitally. As I have gotten older I have grown to appreciate how good they really are and I consider them to be some of my favorite Spider-man stories.
Now, here is where I have something to confess. I haven't read new Spider-man comics about Peter Parker set in the PRIME Marvel universe since about 2008. I have read Ultimate Spider-man multiple times, a few issues of the Chris Yost Scarlet Spider series, and some of the comics staring Miles. But I haven't read any new books staring 616 Peter Parker in ages. You see, I hated 'One More Day' when I read it as a kid but I was kind of old enough to understand publicity stunts in the comics industry like "Death of Superman." When OMD happened I assumed it was just a big shocking status quo change that would eventually be undone and I decided I would resume reading Spider-man new books when that finally happened. Almost 20 years later and I'm still kind of just sitting around waiting for it to happen. I don't say this to

Big Bad Toy Store has their release date listed as April, but I see posts of people who already have them. Where are people getting them?
Hi! The title is pretty much explicit. I am pretty much new to the Spiderman comics, and I have to say that Kaine and Ben Reilly are intriguing characters to me. So, I would like to ask, what can I read for a good story with Ben Reilly and Kaine?
Thank you for the answers!
