Peter Parker eat your heart out, Cindy Moon hits all the best Spider-superhero struggling to make their life work vibes with her own awesome style. The continued rise of Silk to the levels of prominence that the character should be regularly enjoying is delightful to witness as this series continues to set up her world and gives us tons to explore and enjoy.

For all the complexity that is given to the hero, the villain doesnt necessarily seem all that interesting just yet. She hasnt been given much of a chance to spend much time on the page. If there is a consistent fine these first two issues, its the fact that the menace behind the villain doesnt seem quite as strong as it could. The reader is given a very intimate understanding of Cindy moon. The villain remains a distant mystery. There isnt much for Cindy to be heroic against. Read Full Review
Silk delves into the mystery behind its youth-sucking witch with one of the most-appropriate cameos possible. Read Full Review
Silk #2 is a nice, pleasant, safe comic. Safety is the high point and its downfall because the character beats and relationship building works well enough but the threat level from a centuries-old witch is treated as no more than an inconvenience. Read Full Review
Silk #2 offers us a new mythos featuring superheroes that deserve more space in the Marvel Universe. Read Full Review
Enjoyed this issue in a very BUFFY sort of way, this would make a fun TV series I am seeing.
No idea who Luna Snow is but she's cool, hope to see more of her. I am liking how adult Silk looks, her trying to find herself in NYC, it resonates in a similar way early Peter Parker did. Sticking around to read more for sure.
Not daring or exciting, but it's perfectly pleasant comfort food, and Takeshi Miyazawa's art is always worth the price of admission
The script delivers on Cindy's charming voice, which is about the start and finish of its achievements. It doesn't do anything *wrong* per se, it's just not remarkable. The antagonist isn't interesting, and having her Deal explained via infodump doesn't help. Guest star Luna Snow is cardboard-flat.
Silver lining: The visuals are a real treat. Takeshi Miyazawa is in top form, and it's great to see their talents applied to adult characters.
