It could be argued that the very last thing Amazing Spider-Man needs right now is more villains. The first arc revolved heavily around the new Zodiac and the Goblin army, while also laying groundwork for several other villains to emerge. Is Dan Slott biting off more than he can chew by adding Mister Negative to the mix now? So far, it doesn't seem that way. This issue succeeds in reintroducing several characters who have been absent from Slott's ASM run for too long while also furthering the book's central conflict.
\It certainly helps that this issue remains focused squarely on the return of Mister Negative and the resulting chaos in Shanghai rather than trying to keep multiple plates spinning. Slott effectively explores the duality of this villain, a philanthropist who doesn't even realize he's also an international crime lord. That treatment extends to Cloak and Dagger as well. These two have been recast as villains for the purpose of this arc, lending a greater sense of physical danger to Spidey's new adventure. And considering that the characters have been left hanging ever since their Spider-Island mini-series in 2011, it's nice to see someone finally picking up where that book left off.
