I will give it one more issue to see how it goes. This one is all about the setting. The only thing you learn about either of the characters is their names. There needs to be some good character building or something to keep me intrigued past the next issue.

I like the ideas and the writing. I'm not a fan of how the art style changes so much half way through. I think I will pick up one more issue but if this continues the only way I will keep it on my pull list is if the writing is top-notch.

This one seems to be all over the place when it comes to quality. At times it's great and then there are the cringe-worthy moments. I'm going to give this one more issue to see if it improves. If not I will probably drop this series.

This get a 8/10. I am actually intentionally bringing the score down 1 full point from what I think this deserves. I am doing that because I will admit to being a Dresden Files fan from the books and that is probably skewing my view of this comic. If you liked the previous Jim Butcher comics, the books, or even the short lived television series, then you owe it yourself to pick this up.

Not a perfect comic, but close. I found this issue to really pull me in more than the first. I'm loving how accessible this comic is for someone new to comics like me. While I haven't been buying comics for very long this is at the top of my "I can't wait for the next issue!" list.

Overall this was a pretty good issue. There is a lot happening and it stays interesting. I loved the bit with the Avengers! The only complaint I have is the authors several notes to read other comics like FF. I picked up spider-man because I am new to comics and this was the start of a new series. I don't like feeling like I am missing out on something story wise in the book I bought because I did more

Coming from someone new to comics this first issue does a great job at explaining everything you need to know about the past events and still makes it interesting for continuing readers.

I really wanted to rate this comic higher but as a new reader of spider-man and being fairly new to comics I just can't. This really does a good job of getting my interest for continuing the series however there are several events that are mentioned and hardly explained. If you are new to the comic scene like me there will be several references that will leave you largely confused or wanting more more
