Limbo, Spells & Possessed Mosques in Marvel's Dark Web Today

Today, Marvel Comics publishes three tie-in books to their Inferno re-do Spider-Man. X-Men crossover event Dark Web, with Dark Web: Ms Marvel #1, Gold Goblin #2 and Mary Jane & Black Cat #1. The first of which was referred to in Amazing Spider-Man #15.

And now plays out in full in Dark Web: Ms Marvel #1 as New York gets further possessed with the sick sense of humour that the original Inferno embodied…

So Ms Marvel gets sent to Limbo by Chasm using spells gained from Madylene Pryor, the Goblin Queen.

No, sorry, that's Queen Goblin, as seen in Gold Goblin, with Norman Osborn in the lead. Although he really doesn't want to be called a Goblin. And of course, as Mary Jane remembers, they have done Inferno in New York before.

And yes, that's just what she encountered in Inferno, thanks to David Michelinie and Todd McFarlane from Amazing Spider-Man #311.

Ironically, that seems to be what The Queen Goblin is trying to do now. How did Mary Jane kill Gold?

With a fire axe. How is the Queen Goblin trying to kill the Gold Goblin?

I mean, it's not far off, is it? More like a mace than a fire axe. While Ms Marvel has to deal with a Gren Goblin glider coming to life as a demon and attacking he, before being sent to limbo…

… that's not the craziest thing thing Nww York to get possessed by demons and gain sentience.

That's right, folks, it's a mosque. Are they trying to say that Frank Miller was right all this time? Anyway, just like Ms Marvel being sent to limbo, so Mary Jane and Felicia Hardy end there too. According to the demons, it's a bit of a trope at this point…

Are they talking about Illyana Rasputin, Kitty Pryde, Madelyne Pryor or Kamala Khan? So many to choose from…
