A lot of really good heart to heart moments in this one. Peter and Harry talk things out as do MJ and Aunt May. The writing is great and the character work is the best part of this series. Sad that it is almost over.
I am enjoying this new miniseries and even more than just the hero versus villain thing is the personal relationships which include Harry, Gwen and MJ. A new but familiar take on this seems interesting along with the romance triangle and all the pain that usually brings our Peter, sigh...
