I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Ultimate Spider-Man Vol 9: Ultimate Six by Brian Michael Bendis (Writer), Trevor Hairsine (Penciler), Mark Bagley (Penciler), Joe Quesada (Penciler), Danny Miki (Ink), Art Thibert (Ink), Dave Stewart (Colorist), Ian Hannin (Colorist), Avalon Studios (Colorist), Transparency Digital (Colorist), Richard Isanove (Colorist), Chris Eliopoulos (Letterer)
In the previous comic, a horrible accident leaves Doctor Octavius with mechanical arms permanently attached to his body and his short term memory erased. He wants revenge and goes after Justin Hammer the man whom he was spying on Norman Osbourne for and who was working on his own set of genetic oddities. He calls a press conference to reveal what Hammer has done and Spider-Man shows up to take down Doc Octopus or Doc Ock, which he does. But he's not alone. Sharon Carter of S.H.I.E.L.D. also shows up and decides to investigate the lab where the genetic abnormalities exist.
Carter makes the mistake of letting Flint Marco out of his cell thinking she was freeing a prisoner and instead the Sandman escapes. Spider-Man helps with taking him down but the scientists have a gun that shoots a dart that takes him out for ten minutes that they use to put him in lockdown. But he's only the second after Doc Ock that they'll get.
In the basement of one of Wilson Fisk's buildings, they find a man there with no fingerprints who has electrical abilities. He tries to escape but Iron Man, Captain America, and Sharon Carter stop him. Now he's put down in the containment center with Doc Ock, Sandman, and Norman Osbourne who are receiving therapy from Dr. Henry Pym.
Then Kraven the Hunter comes to town wanting to hunt down Spider-Man but this time he's genetically altered himself. He's brought along his camera crew again. Then Captain America, Thor, and Sharon Carter capture him and send him to the containment center. Nick Fury has plans for them that Dr. Henry Pym thinks is possible with rehabilitation. If anything they can be brought forth to legally sane enough to stand trial.
But something goes wrong and the bad guys take over the containment center and kill nearly everyone who works there and they get out with the intent of making Nick Fury pay. Fury puts people on Aunt Mae and Mary Jane to keep them safe but no one is keeping Spider-Man safe from them and they kidnap him and tell him they have Aunt Mae and if he doesn't help them they'll harm her. So he goes to do what they say.
This is a great comic, though Spider-Man isn't in it as much as you would like. Though he isn't he's replaced by some pretty high hitting characters such as Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Nick Fury, and Sharon Carter so you don't mind not seeing him so much. The artwork has either gotten better or I've gotten used to it but I think it doesn't bother me as much anymore. It's not half bad, actually. I really enjoyed this book and I give it five stars out of five stars.
