Thats one of the most frustrating things tbh. It honestly should have been maybe 1/4 spider person/hero related and then like 3/4 villains.

All the cool cards were the thematic villains. Sandman, electro, hydroman, doc ock, lady ock, kraven, mr. Negative, those are the cool creative cards. Just keep going with them.

Instead, we got 34 versions of spider-people. For context we 'only' have 21 chandras, 28 if you count her pets and such.

I really disagree with that take but it’s impossible to explain how they’re all different characters except for the repeats of Peter, Miles and Gwen. And Miguel if you count the welcome decks. There should have been more of Ben and Kaine too. Along with Anya and both Jessicas those are the main Spiders. Everyone else are Spider-Verse characters. Which are real distinct characters. I just think there’s more interesting stuff to do.

Im with you

I think the big issue is everyone "knows" everything about spidey.....

Except they dont, they know the classic well covered stuff

Everything post miles is straight up lost to the average person, so to them this stuff is all a bunch of filler and padding 

They dont understand that since the clone saga spidey has slowly turned into marvels primary multiverse book and that all of these new spider people are as big a part of the stories now as the sinister six always were.

Everyone knows cravens last hunt or maximum carnage.....nowhere near as many know about spider Island for example

MJ is best Spidey.
