I've been reading the UK reprinted editions of the Amazing Spider-Man titles and they're structured much differently from Spencer's regular run, they read like entirely new issues, with several scenes from different issues blended together, some of the pages aren't even from Spencer's ASM run, but from satellite titles or titles featuring Peter in guest roles.

The Son of Kal-El solicitation is laughable trying to equate Jon with Lex. He's not his father & Lex is pretty much going to chew him up & spit him out. Also "Jon choices put everyone he cares for at risk" Really? You sure it wasn't because Facist-Apologist Daddy exposed his Identity to the world that already put people at risk?
How the f*** did this garbage get a 2nd printing?

Free Comic Book Day: Spider-Man/Venom
Spider-Man Beyond Story
Hulk foe Bushwacker is alive, he attacks what appears to be an oil business in Dallas Texas, hurting whoever's inside is part of his job. Ben Reilly arrives to stop him, Bushwacker takes note of his costume and asks when heroes like Ben ever have time to sew, before training his weapon on a pair of people. Ben shields them from a blast with his own body, his costume is made of impact-thickening foam polymers that absorb the energy burst. Bushwacker's arms morph into larger cannons but Ben plugs them with a fist, and the blasts backfire on Bushwacker, ripping his arms clean off and causing damage to the building. Ben is horrified and calls in the Beyond corporation, who assure him they will take care of the clean up operation, providing counselling for the hostages as well as a contractor to repair the building.
Ben is impressed with the Beyond corp's services as well as the effectiveness of the suit and agrees to join them. Beyond corp tell him to get rid of his Scarlet Spider outfit, comparing it to something a fourteen year old would wear at a birthday party. Ben is concerned he'll be mistaken for the real Spider-Man, Beyond corp tell him that, to them, he is the real deal

Batman/Catwoman#6
In the present, Phantasm and Selina conspire to lure Bruce into a confrontation using Selina as 'bait', they do battle, but ultimately Selina helps Andrea get the drop on Bruce and knocks him out with a cat scratch, telling Andrea it's time they killed The Joker together.
In the future, Helena asks her mother if she killed The Joker, but Selina dodges the question and instead offers to go on patrol with her. She puts on one of her old silver age villain outfit and meets up with Commissioner Grayson. They have an emotional reunion. Selina and Helena beat up a few criminals, and then, relaxing on a rooftop, Helena asks Selina again if she killed The Joker, and this time Selina confesses to it.
In the past, The Joker drops by Selina's house for a visit as she's fresh off a break-up with Bruce. They decorate the Christmas tree Bruce left for her. Selina admits all the decorations are stolen. After Joker leaves, Bruce arrives, wanting to reconcile with Selina, telling her he's lost without her.
Superman and the Authority#2
Pretty much a recruitment issue, with several story-within-a-story highlighting each Authority member as Clark and Manchester enlist their services. Natasha Irons battles representatives of a 4-D living internet, complete with androids speaking fake news, and monstrous avatars for trolls and edgelords. Midnighter agreeing to work with Clark is actually a birthday present to Apollo. Apollo got Midnighter a Drag Race Down Under shirt. There's some political commentary which boils down to 'don't mess with the left' from Superman. Finally, the team journey to Arkham to help out a schizophrenic Enchantress

Nightwing#83 Dick finds out from his sister her ties to crime families isn't as black and white as he's been led to believe, and that she's been actively helping to bring down criminal organizations through her connections. He evades the police, taking the heat off of his sister at the same time by 'faking' an attack on them, and after a skirmish with the cops and Blockbuster, returns to base where he passes out for two days. After chatting with Leslie, the Titans, Lucius, and Superman, Dick opens the Alfred Pennyworth Foundation to help deal with Bludhaven's poverty stricken areas. Bruce calls Dick and tells him how proud of him he is and that he has honoured Alfred. Dick and Babs also kiss. F*ck you Kory.

Flash this week see's Wally deal with Heat Wave while juggling his new job. Granted job's not that hard & I definitely don't see it lasting long but anyway he's able to talk down Heat Wave froM blowing up the pier & sends him to prison....only for later to be confronted by Amanda Waller...The spear of destiny also continues to fly in space running into the now Sinestro Corps "alligned" Jessica Cruz.
Shazam this week has Billy fart around in Hell as he tries to fine the Rock of Eternity. He ends up getting in trouble with a Casino boss & due to his power malfunction is getting beaten before his classmate Dane reveals he's the Son of Lucifer.
Clown-Hunter Secret Files was alright. Bao gets ambushed by a Joker gang lead by Punchline (in prison), before eventually being saved by Jason. Jason offered a partnership but Bao rejects it & limps off.
