Spider-Man 2099 #8 is one of the best issues of the entire "Spider-Verse" event, combining fun action and imaginative villains with great character-developing moments

Spider-Man 2099 #1 makes all the right moves for a series opener. A well-defined lead character, fast-paced and smart world building, and stakes that matter on a number of levels.

Superior Spider-Man Team-Up #11is a fun flashback that provides the first team-up between Doctor Octopus and the Green Goblin. It is hard not to enjoy the fun writing and the classic Frenz/Buscema art.

Spider-Man 2099 #10 puts events in motion that could have a terrifying impact on the entire Marvel Universe. It's an action-packed story with great characters from Peter David and Will Sliney.

Spider-Man 2099 #16 is one of the best issues of this volume. The creators stuff it with so many characters in an energetic battle, plus a very fun incarnation of J. Jonah Jameson. The story includes some very unexpected twists that allows it to work on multiple levels.

Superior Spider-Man Team Up #12 not only gives an insightful flashback into Otto Octavius' past, it also serves as a swan song to the entire Superior era. The art by Frenz/Buscema is creative, iconic and engaging.

"Spider-Man 2099 #4" is the most action-packed issue of the series so far and continues to enforce that super powers does not guarantee real power

Spider-Man 2099 #6 is an action-packed chapter of "Spider-Verse" that moves the event along and introduces many new corners of the 2099 universe

Spider-Man 2099 #6 is an action-packed chapter of "Spider-Verse" that moves the event along and introduces many new corners of the 2099 universe

Spider-Man 2099 #9 sets up an interesting new story with exciting fan-favorite characters, but does not yet touch on the issues and themes of the original arc.

Spider-Man 2099 #11 revisits some of the series' original plot points and seems to tie up some loose ends before the series closes

Peter David made an interesting choice by ending the series without mentioning the book's original concept, implying that individual relationships are more worthy of saving than the future.

Although Spider-Man 2099 #7 continues to ignore the series' major plot lines, it tackles lofty ideas regarding God and superheroes in a self-contained story that makes it much more satisfying than recent issues.

Spider-Man 2099 #10 starts a new arc that returns the series to its future-saving roots and breathes new life into the franchise.

Spider-Man 2099 #11 showcases the creators' skills in efficient world-building and includes 90s nostalgia in great ways that don't alienate newer readers.

AXIS: Hobgoblin #3 looks beautiful but lacks some of the elements that made the first two issues so great. More importantly, the series feels like it's lacking proper closure, and the character arcs seem incomplete.

Secret Wars 2099 #1 introduces a new world that's very accessible and a very interesting new version of Captain America. These new ideas aside, Peter David's writing leaves the stakes of the series unclear at this point.

Secret Wars 2099 #2 seems less like the second chapter of an arc and more like a #1A. It's still unclear what the series is about, but the growing world remains interesting.

Secret Wars 2099 #4 is action-packed and begins to pay off everything that the book has been building towards, but because the stakes have been low throughout the series, some of the most powerful moments don't reach their highest potential.

Spider-Man 2099 #1 is Miguel O'Hara's fast-paced, action-packed welcome to the Marvel Universe of 2014.

Spider-Man 2099 #3 uses action to define characters and relationships. It shows that having powers does not make a person powerful.

David and Sliney use Spider-Man 2099 #4 to introduce us to the new status quo of Captain America 2099. Readers hoping for answers to previous issues' cliffhangers will have to wait.

"Spider-Man 2099 #5" is the most action-packed issue of the reboot to date and its fast-paced battle makes it the best chapter since the relaunch, despite not addressing any of the dangling plot points.

Spider-Man 2099 #9 revisits the dilemma of Miguel's rage and the lines he's willing to cross to achieve his goals. Experiments in the art's panels give this issue a lot of kinetic energy.

Spider-Man 2099 #14 is an artistic achievement that stuffs a lot of great cameos from 2099 eras of the past and not-so-past. However, the plot and path of the series continues to suffer from a lack of direction.

Spider-Man 2099 #15 dives deeper into the world of 2099, but never takes the story or the stakes to the next level.

Spider-Man 2099 #2 sacrifices action to go deep on Miguel's personal relationships, and still maintains a fast pace that keeps the reader excited about the series' future. That said, the issue is mostly set-up for future payoffs.

Spider-Man 2099 #3 features the first costumed action of the series, but the issue devotes a little too much time on battle and is light on substance.

Spider-Man 2099 #12 missed opportunities to create a eye-popping battle between Miguel and The Sinister Six. Moreover, the series feels unimpassioned, despite the high stakes and interesting twists.

Spider-Man 2099 #17 kicks off a new arc that guest-stars Elektra. Although it returns to some earlier plot threads, it does little to inject new energy into this series.

Spider-Man 2099 #18 reintroduces elements that put the series back on the path of its original conflict, but was somewhat confusing to read due to an unclear introduction of a new villain.

"Spider-Man 2099 #5" does a great job at getting many different versions of Miguel O'Hara into the world of "Spider-Verse," but fans of the series' first arc will find an entirely different type of story-telling here.

Spider-Man 2099 #7 has a great sequence involving The Punisher of the future, but seems to have no impact on the larger "Spider-Verse" story and had few character-defining moments.

Spider-Man 2099 #8 picks up one of the series' most anticipated story lines, but a bloated set-up and battle make this one of the least exciting issues since the relaunch.

Spider-Man 2099 #13 is connected to the larger "Civil War II" story in only the most superficial ways at this point. This new arc seems to abandon the stakes that had been steadily building over the last few issues. This book still struggles with sticking to a core story.

Spider-Man 2099 #19 features great looking battle scenes, but does little to raise the stakes of this arc, which is becoming one of the weakest of the entire series.

The series continues to be fun and action packed, but Secret Wars 2099 has abandoned its most interesting elements and still struggles with plot, stakes and theme.

Secret Wars 2099 #5 provided lots of action, but as a series finale, it lacked dynamic characters and an overarching theme.

Spider-Man 2099 #6 avoids the characters and plots readers and creators have been investing in for five issues. It tells a completely new story that is hopefully part of a larger, more-satisfying picture but for now continues to paint a disjointed picture of what to expect from the series.
