Jamel Stallings Comic Reviews

I look forward to the next issue and to what challenges await Peter Parker as he weathers the unforgiving, cruel costs of having great powers and the great responsibility that burdens him.

The story has its highs and lows, but this issue renewed curiosity and appreciation for Seely’s originality. Tim Seely took the basis of Biollante’s origins and retold it in a way that felt like a reboot of the original film, and Seely did great at pacing the battle with the human/G-mutant drama. It’s not every day that the human element of a Godzilla story gets my attention; still, the theme of loss and revenge bridged the intensity of the fight between Godzilla and Biollante and the complicated duality of Jacen and May.
