Just read ASM #37 and I must say, it definately wasn't worth the two month delay wait. I liked how it showed Aunt May reacting to what she just saw, looking around the room at everything and seeing Peter's web shooters etc. It was also great how she spent the day by herself just thinking. I really didn't care at all for the other part of the story. I'm glad JSM is showing Peter's life as a school teacher and wanting to help that girl, but I really didn't want to see this after what we last saw in #35. The end of the issue was great where May told Peter over the phone that they needed to "talk now."

What sucks now is that who knows how long we'll have to wait for #38, and that is supposed to be the "Nuff said" issue. The whole Nuff said thing was/is such a joke. At the very least, Marvel should have lowered the price of the Nuff said issues. You flip through an entire issue in like 3 minutes, maybe less. It's just a waste of money. So I'm not expecting much from #38. Does anyone know if #38 will pick up where #37 left off, or are they going to wait and we can actually read what Peter and May have to say in #39.

Eh, long day, so I'm a little heated up right now. :)

I really enjoyed ASM, as I do everytime it comes out, despite the wait. Loved seeing more of Peter as a teacher, and showing that a teacher's job doesn't end in the classroom. The next issue should be really really strong.

And, yes, issue 38 was scheduled to be Nuff' Said, but issue 36 was scheduled to be part two of the Aunt May thing. I think everything was bumped up due to the 9-11 story.
