The art seemed a bit wonky to me when I first started reading but somehow the style grew on me. The setup was a little weird. Purple Man doesn't strike me as a sharing type, but it's not something I have a violent objection to.

2017-06-12 01:14:49 +0000 UTCThe mind control thing is due to the Purple-Man taking over Jessica's mind during one of her first outings as Jewel. He made her do a bunch of things , in the comics, that drove her nuts. I could see him doing something similiar in the Tracey-Verse that makes her fuck everything in sight.

2017-06-08 06:31:11 +0000 UTCIt was great, can't wait for more as these stories are the great unexplored areas of the Traceyverse. Quick shout out to the artist, who really nailed the psychotic expressions of Scorpion and was paired perfectly for this story. I love the pathetic limpness and weakness of Scorp, exposing the ugliness of his actions. I'll throw out some minor, forgettable nitpicks. I'm not as much into mind control, it takes away the fear and peril and makes the girl completely abstract to the attack. I realize that makes it interesting as a dark story but doesn't work for me as strongly as she needs to be present in the moment to make the villain's plot more adversarial. Scorp gets some comeuppance but not even from Jess as Kilgrave ordered her all the way. This may be a way to take the edge off such stories but these stories need edge to make them work (MJ passing out in Groupie also comes to mind). I hate to compare to Groupie but there Venom was more motivated (Scorp is just strolling by) which made MJ's ultimate victory (saving her savior Gwen as well) much sweeter. Not only was Venom more interesting and direct (crossing through universes where he knew Spidey wasn't there and striking in the middle of a packed concert) but MJ (okay Em Jay) and Gwen's expressions really made their emotional journey more exciting, titillating, and captivating.

2017-06-06 02:45:17 +0000 UTCAlright I loved this one and I hope you make it into a series of sorts. The humiliation angle works better with Jessica than it did with Gwen2. Spider-Mans appearance was something I didn't expect. But I did notice that you have a thing with Scorpions getting a tail up their asses. Which if that was a throwback to that other comic with Arana, you have my applause. Going to go down as my favorite one. I think you could use the Purpleman as the Weapon of Sexual Destruction for the Tracey-Verse.

2017-06-06 00:58:30 +0000 UTCI liked this one. Non-con is more of my thing when it come to super-heroine for me. The choice of the artist for the story is good. I like how everyone is creepy so it definitively match the story. There is some great work done with the eyes. Scorpion look mad, Jessica look like she is gone, it is greatly drawn. The scorpion is really clingy and take full advantage and it reflex on the page. The sense of motion is great too. I appreciate how Jessica is like a ragdoll until she is ordered to do something. Then she spring back to life to do so. Plot wise, I don't know what exactly you were aiming for but it is better then the previous non-con story with Spider-Gwen. I like it more or less is in continuity with the comics there. Spiderman apparition, and the fact Jessica won't remind this, keep the story from getting too dark (not from my taste, I don't mind darker) and I think it doesn't make you betray yourself too much in term of content. This review is way too long and I put too much thought on this. Sorry if it sound creepy.
