So here we are. This is my second post and here I am, already trying to induce a new tradition.
Here's the deal: I liked Wizard only for their old match-up style double-page spreads. And now they don't do it anymore, they're wayyyy too busy talking about Micheal Turner(who is constantly a Top 10 Artist even though he only draws covers), Alex Ross and Bendis.
So I'm going to re-enact this grand tradition of the past and put my writing talents to the test. Behold: the much awaited 616 vs. Ultimate Universe crossover! (because no one cares about the Supreme Power Universe crossing over...)

VERSUS
While exiting the evil N-Zone prsion of Tony Stark, Spider-Man, whose girlfriend had assured that wearing black would make him invisible to other people (note: not true), accidentally hit the location dial of the warp gate with his elbow. Not noticing this horrible twist-of-fate, Spidey swung through the warp at full-speed, expecting to be with Mary Jane in a few minutes.
Exiting the warp, he felt different. This wasn't the same city. At the same time he thought this, he heard: "Stay there, clone!!". It was a copy of himself, although this Spider-Man seemed smaller and.. whinier. The younger Spidey swung both legs at a time in The Other's (pun intended) face. Black Spidey fell down and both engaged in a savage fight.
After a few minutes of webbing, kicking and joking, 616 Spidey had Ultimate Spider-Man knocked down and prepared to knock him out for good, but Ultimate Spidey blocked the punch, applying his forearm directly on 616's wrist.
"Noooo!!!!" said Black Spider-Man. The spike in his forearm came out and pierced a hole through Ultimate Spider-Man's skull.
Shortly thereafter, Nick Fury showed up with the Ultimates (who keep popping up in other's stories while time stands still in their own world) and cleaned up everything, 'cause that's how it rolls in the Ultimate Universe.
What have you learned from this story, kids? That's right: Spider-Man with spikes popping out of his forearms is overkill.
And if you're angry with me for killing a Spider-Man, well, just assume he was a clone. Or a doppelganger. Or Geldoff.
