A weakness of JMD's is that he can only ever write like himself. Lost Hunt's take on Gregor was nothing like Mackie's whatsoever. Shadow of the Green Goblin was also nothing like Mackie's -1 Spider-Man issue, let alone anything resembling the Lee/Ditko era in which it took place. His Ben Reilly mini introduced pathos to Spidercide, a clone who was originally written as just plain goofy evil and not at all like Peter Parker. This won't feel like a continuation of the cartoon, it will be JMD's own depressing take on the cartoon.
