>they've been trying to do Spider-Boy since like 1994
I never had a problem with Ben Reilly replacing Peter as Spider-Man, once again it was editorial bullshit that got in the way of a decent idea. Making it clear that Peter WAS the clone and that Ben was the ORIGINAL was retarded, it could've easily just been "Thanks for taking over the Spider-Man gig, Ben. I'm going to retire with my smoking hot wife and have some kids now that the responsibility of being Spider-Man is off my shoulders." But that would've been too easy for Marvel (I actually kind of liked Sensational Spider-Man at the time).
