Avenging Spider-Man #22 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

With Spidey's swerve to the lethal, Yost logically brings in Frank Castle to give him some pointers.  Despite liking the issue for the most part, I'll admit that it feels a little rushed, with the Punisher's appearance distracting from the clever core conceit of Otto confronting a Hobgolbin-fronted Mysterio.  (Otto is obviously surprised at first, given that Mysterio is in his prison for Sinister Six members.)  But, Yost is clearing the decks for the soft re-launch of this title, so I'll forgive him.  With Slott now adopting a tone for Otto more consistent with the one that Yost has used throughout this run, it'll be interesting to see if these titles play more in tandem than they have previously.
