Ok, so I know what is going on with Superior Spider-man, and that Doc Ock's body died in ASM 700. However I am sitting here reading a 3 Issue series called the Buzz from 2000 and the last issue has Doc Ock in it and it mentions that his body is "rotting from cancer", The problem is I have no idea what happened in between, did they string Doc Ock's cancer/death along for 13 years or did he somehow recover between then and the recent Superior stuff?

During those 13 years how much did Spider-Man age? Comic time and real time aren't close to being the same. In 50 real years Peter has only aged about 7 years tops.

Buzz was an MC2 mini-series, meaning it took place in the possible future that Spider-Girl lives in. Whatever happened in that book has absolutely nothing to do with current (or past) continuity in the Marvel Universe. Frankly, it's just a huge coincidence that the writers for Buzz made Doc Ock's fate be cancer.

Yeah that was an MC2 title, so it really had nothing to do w/ the 616. However in the 616 Doc Ock's body was 'rotting' because he basically had a vicious form of "Dementia pugilistica" from repeated ass-kickings he received from Spidey.

You know what is funny about comic time vs real time? Could you imagine being the average person in New York and every 2-3 weeks having to deal with a Major Villian Event? Or being the average person in the DC Universe and having reality change every few months?
