![]() ![]() ![]() The opening portion already has the brain patterns switched, with Peter Parker in Octavius’ dying body desperately attempting to use the little time and strength that body possesses to rectify his appalling situation. “A life wasted on villainy and failed schemes”, is his brutal assessment, “a man whose sole victory was cheating death”.Ĭombining what at the time appeared to be the final desperate tale of Peter Parker with Octavius’ taking on both Parker’s lives produces quite the schizoid graphic novel. Long established as a scientific genius, his near death experience left him a changed man. ![]() This is because the body and wardrobe content may belong to Peter Parker, but the mind within is that of Otto Octavius, Doctor Octopus to most. If anyone’s spending money on this hardcover collection after the content had already been issued as serialised monthly comics, then within paperback collections Dying Wish and My Own Worst Enemy, they’re surely aware that the Spider-Man featured here isn’t what we’re used to. ![]()
