Others regard her as a Mary Sue pet character of Slott's who basically steals focus from established characters, and takes away aspects from Spider-Man himself, all in the vein to make her look better by comparison. Some fans love her for being a well-written minority character that isn't defined by her status. ![]() Base-Breaking Character: Anna Marie Marconi, Otto's love interest.As a plus, this means we get to see Ross showing us his painterly take on ◊ Venom. Awesome Art: From "Worldwide" onwards, Alex Ross provided cover art for the main series.And unlike Slott, who had 40 issues plotted by him but scripted by Christos Gage, Bendis wrote all his issues on his own note The irony being that around the time Slott finally announced he would be stepping down and conceded the record to Brian Michael Bendis, Bendis not long afterwards had announced that he would also be leaving Marvel to start writing for DC. ![]() ![]() Not helping this belief is that Slott came out after the fact and admitted that part of his motivation for continuing to write the book was for the chance of being the longest continuing writer for Spider-Man. ![]() ![]() Another member of the group was her contemporary, Max van Weezel, who has also become a political journalist.

![]() ![]() So, later that afternoon my dad went back again to the wasteland, to get his glasses back. I only had the one sting on the back of my arm. And while I was running up the hill, my dad stayed and got stung, to give me time to run away. We must have stepped on a wasps' nest in a rotten branch as we walked. And then we stopped and we puffed and we panted, and we looked back down the gully. When he reached me he picked me up in his arms and swept me over the edge of the hill. As I got to he top of the hill I heard somebody thundering up the hill behind me. Something hurt me on the back of my arm as I ran, but I kept running. Now!"

But I kept telling them I wanted to explore it. Mum and Dad made me promise not to go exploring back there, because there were too many sharp things, and tetanus and such. There were all these things that people had thrown away back there - old cookers and broken dishes and dolls with no arms and no legs and empty cans and broken bottles. It wasnʼt the best place to go for a walk, really. When I was a little girl, when we lived in our old house, a long, long time ago, my dad took me for a walk on the wasteland between our house and the shops. ![]() ![]() ![]() Holloway does all she can to help, working at Monique's side, weighing babies, teaching women how to make rehydration formula, striving to bring birth control to the village women and arranging for Monique, rather than her feckless husband, to collect her monthly paycheck. Trapped in an unhappy arranged marriage, Monique, who has her own household to run and has her own baby strapped to her back, works long, hard hours to bring other women's babies safely into the world, to teach mothers how to feed and care for their offspring, and at the same time to minister to the general health needs of the whole village. The author is immediately plunged into the birthing business by her capable new friend, whose medical resources are severely limited but whose personal assets are quite extraordinary. Holloway spent two years, from 1989 to 1991, working alongside Monique Dembele in the tiny village of Nampossela, where Monique served as midwife.
