This is where Browne and Soule thrive. Parallels to the real world with a mind-bending twist. The fact that these two devils are also in a relationship adds to how unique this storyline is.

The issue ends in a BIG way! I genuinely didn't see this cliffhanger coming, but man is it good. Till next time all you little serial killers out there!

As my first Space Ghost experience, this was a fun ride! Pepose and Lau really bring a blend of action and storytelling in a fun-filled issue that leaves the reader salivating for more. This is a must add to anyone's pull list!

It's THAT good and this creative team is not playing around one bit! I CANNOT wait for the rest of this cross-over to see where it all goes and who else we get to meet along the way!

These books are a blast. They bring out the kid in me at a time when i really need him. As you get older, it's tough having that child-like enthusiasm, but more important than ever to remember that aspect of your life and personality.

So, Carnage has plans LOL. The issue ends with a true cliffhanger as the alien killer looks for his next victim and tells Eddie how things are going to go.

I cannot wait till issue 14, as we all know the battle is going to rage! This version of Kraven is esspecially demented and Peter matches him with heroics and the heart of a true icon!

This issue is where things really pick up and we're left wanting more as Peter may be down but not out.

It's a unique take and a reset of sorts after the Zeb Wells run, one with action and a fresh perspective on the iconic character.

A fun start, but this Spider-Man back story is missing a couple of emotional ties to why he's Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. My guess though is we are going to get that in the next issue or so!

A truly near flawless close to the limited series. Now we head into All-New Venom #1 and what could this mean as there was a MAJOR cliffhanger at the end of this issue. Could the unthinkable really happen? I won't spoil it but hot damn, what a final panel.

What can I saw, this book is adorable through and through. I loved it and can't wait to read it to my 1-year-old baby boy. Do you think Venom will give him nightmares? Oh well, he's a tough land shark, he'll be fine.

It's a solid book and series and one that should be checked out by Spider-Man fans of all ages.

I'm going to miss this run and you should too. It was unique, something that only a writer like Zeb could bring to the table and we always need to see our favorite heroes from new perspectives.

Just a fun, enticing book that is classic Logan. A lot of action, tormented pain and twists.

It really feels like a blockbuster movie type of feel and we should enjoy it while it lasts.

Ummm...that ending!! Without spoiling it, we find out who is behind all this and boy is it a surprise and yet, something or someone that is going to wreak havoc for our X-Men.

57 and 58 are both great Spider-Man issues and honestly, this issue ends in a cliffhanger and i want to read it NOW!

This is a cute, inspirational issue, especially for young readers. The interactions between Bailey and Multitiude are the best. "We didn't choose it, it chose us, are just a few of the lines that really resonate with the old classic, "With great power, comes great responsibility.

We get the raging Hulk we know and love and a Thanos blood thirsty for stones.

It's the best and most unique art I've seen in quite a while. The stories feel a bit disjointed, but have promise.

This is the kind of issue I hope my young son Luke reads one day and maybe the reason he becomes a fan of comics.

Rook Exodus #4 is a heart-pumping, foot-tapping, eyes-widening roller coaster. The action doesn't stop and the emotion oozes off the page like something out of a classic science fiction thriller. If you haven't placed Rook Exodus on your pull list yet, you're doing yourself a true disservice.

This issue was a little goofy, but it's nice to see Thor in the mix here.

Not as much action or humor in this issue, but man that surprise was something else.

To close out the book, all-around shady character Marv invites Kenny and Shelly to beta test some video game for a lot of cold hard cash.

Not much here, more of a setup for next month's big battle between Peter and Ben. (The cover looks incredible)

OK, I know, I got to stop dishing out 10s for Spider-Man comics, but hot damn, what a book! What a series!

This will be short, Superior Spider-Man #4 might be one of the best comics Ive ever read. It's easily one of the best Spidey stories and just hits home on why we love him so much.

Heart-pumping, action packed I could go on and on about this book. I can already smell the conflict brewing inside T'Challa and the twists and turns that must come later in the series.
