The second issue of the Spider-man "One More Day" storyline is on he shelves with Friendly Neighborhood Spider-man #24, so I can' think of a better issue to use for this week's early Buy Pile Report. Well, that and I've only had time in the office to read two issues of anything thus far.
Anyway, by the end of this issue, we're finally at the point where things become unpredictable, so if you've been waiting for when this series becomes worth your money, it's the next installment, Sensational Spider-man #41, on sale on Halloween.
For now, we get a solid, but predictable issue in which Peter takes a couple of mystical journeys (one without Doc Strange's permission) trying to change the past. Now, did we all know we would have an issue between Spidey and Strange? Sure, it was a necessary part of the story. Was it done well? Sure, just about as well as a predictable issue can be done. Does it make it worth your money if you're not the biggest Spidey fan? Nope.
Long story short, Strange doesn't want to mess with the natural order so he won't help Peter. However, there is an orange bird following Peter around throughout this issue, and at the end the bird turned into a little red-headed girl who tells Peter she can help him. All signs are pointing toward this being Mephisto, which means the fun is right around the corner.
