Any insight into the Slott thoughts of the time and as things stand now are deeply fascinating to me. I hope you indulge my curiosity. Thanks in advance!

Later writers notwithstanding, I'm curious what your absolute intent was at the time. Were these the real people or did you always intend some level of ambiguity as to the truth about all the characters seemingly resurrected during Clone Conspiracy? Did Ben succeed or wrong or lying?

This was also revealed during his Chameleon Conspiracy story which further muddies the water by providing a future writer a walk back from the walk back which brings me to my question (thanks for sticking around this far!)

So face value, ok, I can believe that they were technically resurrected dead people. But then there's Nick Spencer's run that followed yours that introduced that Ned Leeds never died in Spidey vs. Wolverine and that the Ned we saw in Clone Conspiracy was most likely a clone?

And that is certainly something that has happened before elsewhere. My immediate thought was Red Skull jumping into a cloned Captain America body to cheat death between DeMattis and Gruenwald's runs on Cap in the 80s.

So, Clone Conspiracy, I was wondering if you could clarify the initial conceit of that event. Like, am I understanding the story right when it said that these weren't just clones but revived people in cloned bodies? Like that seemed unambiguious in the original arc.

Efficient of them combining the trilogy into a single film like that. Today we'd have to wait 5 years for Two and 10 years for Three, Chapter 1 and 15 for Three Chapter 2: Tokyo Drift.

Bold of them to present a cover with none of the title characters and showing a scene with no context.

I'd like to see them reprint the Dreamwave stuff first. There's got to be a way for that to get reprinted somehow. That entire catalogue is basically lost media at this point until someone reprints it all.

The whole conceit is one of the Legionaries was this dude's son. I love how Superboy is front and center when the contrivance doesn't even involve him.

I have stocked up since last November. Buy in bulk. The company knows me on a first name basis. The garbage man hates me.
