New Episode! Zach is back with the final 2000s episode of Clone Saga Chronicles. He covers why it’s been a while since we last saw an episode, mentions some changes in regards to his past associations, and of course in this go-around, he is covering the 2015 Spider-Verse storyline, which has a lot of Ben, Kaine, Mayday, and Peter Parker.

SUPRISE! A new episode for CSC? Yes Please. This Episode is a solo effort by Zach to explain the long and sometimes strange history of the Carrion character and the Virus he would produce.

There is a sense of a beginning of the end of this show. Peter Parker: Spider-Man 75 was the first time I had read a comic starring Peter Parker that wasn’t a tie into the cartoon (Adventures of Spider-Man) or a back issue since my very first issue, Spectacular Spider-Man 223. It was an introduction to Norman Osborn that I had only seen in the 90’s show, that leveled him to the top of the food chain in terms of Arch-villains. It’s one of, if not my single favorite issues of Spider-Man of all...

Here it is. Finally. The beginning of the end, for both Ben Reilly as we knew him, and of this show. it’s been nearly 10 years, with unforseen twists and turns, but it’s finally here. I’ll share more thoughts on a lengthy post later, but for now, enjoy the first three parts of Revelations, with Josh, Don, Gerard, Greg and Zach.

In 2016, Ben Reilly returned. We hated it. Covered in Episode 62, we discussed the story that brought about the return of the character… and while I hated that story, I attempted to give it a shot, especially when Josh and I interviewed him in Episode 64. So, Zach goes through the 25 issues of the storyline, before jumping into the Spider-Geddon Story Arc that ran from Oct-December 2018. (Effectively catching up from every appearance in Spider-Clone related stories). So, enjoy the final solo...

So sit back and enjoy this episode!
