Overall a good beginning. If you aren't a die hard Spider-Man fan, skipping this won't cause you to miss anything as the stories take place in a different dimension. However, fans of Gwen Stacey are definitely going to want to pick this up
It's another good start to another Spider book. It does however bring up the concern of saturation. I'd hate to lose a good story because there are so many Spider titles to keep track of.
