I only read Amazing Spider-Man every once in a while (largely because it's bimonthly) — though I do keep up with its goings-on — so I can't speak very well to how the writing's been lately, or even to how the story's been lately. I was interested in the Doc Ock-on-a-deathbed story idea, but in the end, I didn't buy any of the issues.
Anyway, Peter Parker is dead, Dock Ock is going to be the new, better Superior Spider-Man, and well, does anyone really think this will last? Of course it won't. And that's okay. I knew when Johnny Storm died that he'd be back, and probably in issue #600. The return was done exceptionally well, so it was validated for me. Death and rebirth is a ubiquitous part of Big Two comics and it can be okay.
So, the question isn't will Peter Parker return?
The only questions are: when will Peter be back? And how? Well, I don't know quite when (probably a bit before Amazing Spider-Man 2 comes out in theaters), but I'm calling how here: Doc Ock will somehow sacrifice himself to bring Peter back. Like, switching bodies back (posthumously) or something similar.
There we go. I'm calling it, that's how Peter comes back.
