7. Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy

Remember all the deaths in Spider-Man? All the pain, all the misery of those permanent losses from the Marvel universe? How much genuine pain you, the reader, felt every time a beloved face fell to death and disease?

Well, The Clone Conspiracy literally features all these characters coming back as clones who then die tragically due to a failure of the cloning process, so you can relive all that sweet sweet pain once more. It's a smart move in terms of creating maximum suffering, as regardless of which character's death upset you, you will have to see it yet again through the pages of Dead No More.

While it's not quite as sad as losing these characters for the first time, the scale of which we see countless familiar faces die once more - all the whole horrifically aware of what's happening to them - hits you in your feelings a little harder than you'd expect.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
