I need to know if Zeb Well's Spider-Man is stupid, or if it was just uploaded to Webtoon incorrectly
I've never read a comic before, but watched the 90s Spider-Man cartoon as a kid, and seen all the Spider-Man movies. So when I saw the The Amazing Spider-Man 2022 by Zeb Well was free on Webtoon, I decided to check it out. I figured this would be a good entry point into comics.
It started off really strong. It kinda started in the middle of the plot, but I'm Marvel savvy enough to keep up with who the characters and plot. First 11 chapters with Tombstone going to war with the other mobsters were EXCELLENT. Things stay consistently good through chapter 21. Peter is broke, Spidey is funny, the art is great, I recognize most of the villains, I can keep up with the plot, life is good.
Then shit goes off the rails.
Chapter 22 we're in the "Hellfire Gala" with no explanation. The X-Men are here, and I have no idea what's going on.
Chapter 24, once again, we've hoped story arcs with no transition. Something about "Celestial Progenitors".
Chapter 32 isn't even The Amazing Spider-Man, it's "The Dark Web", and we're in purgatory now?
What I NEED to know, is if this is just how comics normally work? Are there usually huge gaps in continuity where the plot goes off under a different title, then picks back up in the original title? Or did the person who uploaded this to Webtoon start smoking crack 22 uploads in?
