It really was that bad
Via The Hurting, here's the most interesting comics-related things I've read in awhile: The Life of Reilly.
That's right, kids! It's the Spider-Clone! The whole saga mapped out for you, with synopses of every damn issue in the whole freaking mess, with commentary by Spider-editor Glenn Greenberg. Witness the birth, excrutiating prolongation, and eventual, merciful death of one of comics' most notoriously reviled storylines, whose story is a cautionary tale about the 90's comic industry as a whole. I, for one, love to learn about the process behind creative trainwrecks like this, and it's so very rare to find one so laboriously researched and presented. Plus, I actually read some of these books (certainly every issue of Amazing involved).
Also, check out The Hurting's post about the whole mess. It's an interesting analysis of the project. Just scroll down until you hit the image of the chromium cover of Maximum Clonage: Omega. I wish I was making that up.
