New cover goes hard.

I absolutely love that Dr. Octopus is using his own experience with Spider-Man to help Sakura Spider deal with Superior Octopus.

Finally, actual main villain reveal. Hope this just means we're heading to a new Arc and not just the end of the story....

Oooh, I wonder if the end implies that corporation is the real baddy, and the two doc ocks actually need to team up and are actually on the same side.

I want to like it, but the conclusion they draw is just so backwards. Taking the fight from a secluded area to an open one sounds good until you realize that means potentially endangering the public. And then the page after that we're reminded that Ock has a legion of robots that can project his face, which seems like it'd piss Superior off at least as much as a spider with no banter shooting him with ineffectual gunk. I wouldn't mind it as much if this was something he was just coming up with on the spot, but, as we're repeatedly reminded, this was a plan he relayed to them beforehand.

Oooh, I wonder if the end implies that corporation is the real baddy, and the two doc ocks actually need to team up and are actually on the same side.

Ch 16 already established that Superior isn't planning on having anything to do with Normal Doc Ock, and Ch 17 showed that both of them plus Taka have a bone to pick with Across.

It also looks like the only reason they're intervening at this point is because Otoha was adamant that they do so, since Doc Ock was initially more than happy to let Taka and Superior finish their raid.

So if (as it seems) Across intends to use the stolen "Hawk Mk.I" (or whatever they decide to call it) against them, Otoha has no grounds to object to the raid continuing, and everyone ends up on the same side. Ish. Doc Ock is probably going to get the win over Superior since his bots have the advantage and will actually carry out the raid, but the groundwork has been laid for a truce.
