Spider-Man and Black Cat - 6 Comics

Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do is a six-issue comic book limited series published by Marvel Comics



starring the superhero Spider-Man and his ally, the cat burglar known as the Black Cat. The title of the book is an



allusion to William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. In the play, Mark Antony says, with regards to Caesar, "The evil



that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones."



Writer/director Kevin Smith began writing the Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do limited series in 2002.



Smith was originally going to take over writing Amazing Spiderman after the completion of the mini-series, which



would serve as a lead-in. After the third issue, the series went on an unplanned hiatus until 2005, when Smith



revealed he had finally finished writing the scripts. Smith has stated "While I have zero defense for my lateness



(particularly when folks like Bendis turn out great stories in multiple books on a monthly basis), I will say this:



It's a much better story now than it would've been had I completed it back in '02."



The delay caused Smith to be heavily criticised, being considered both lazy and unethical for having been paid for



something he had failed to deliver. However, in January 2006 Smith revealed that due to his own failure to submit



the relevant paperwork, Marvel's then-newly computerized system for paying writers for their scripts had not created



the relevant cheque. Due to Smith's failure to discover this until after the completion of the series, he did not in



fact receive any payment at all for his work until it had been finished; in his own words, "Justice, in some weird



manner, has been served, I guess.
