In this episode, Jack and Brian take a closer look at Spider-Men II #2 and are disappointed to find that they’re already losing interest in the miniseries. What went wrong and more importantly, can this train get back on track?

* 0:00 – Intro; A big change for Ultimate Spin

* 3:35 – Spider-Men II #2 – The miniseries takes a disappointing stumble and we try to figure out what happened (and why). Jessica Jones stops by to promote her new series. Miles quits…again. Would this be better read as a trade? Trying to reconcile street-level Miles w/ inter-dimensional adventurer Miles. Shouldn’t Evil Miles be a bigger deal?
