A ruthless crime lord is on the rise. The clock is ticking on a politician's life. Only The Spider stands a chance of stopping the Wingman before he strikes and sends the city spiraling into chaos, but can he do it alone? It's the return of Ronald Jackson, one of the pulp-era Spider's most trusted associates!
This latest issue opens with a brief look into Wentworth’s time in Iraq, introduces a new addition to the stable of characters, and wraps up the short Wingman arc that began in issue 7. There’s no major revelations, no cliffhangers, and none are needed. The strength of Liss and Worley’s abilities draws you into the pulpy, nourish world of The Spider for yet another issue and leaves the reader both satisfied and wanting more. Here’s hoping Dynamite locks these two into a lengthy deal and really give them room to continue building this world. Read Full Review
The Spider #6 is an issue that offers a competent and sturdy story that's chock-full of political intrigue and some chaotic fun. Recommended. Read Full Review
The lead bad guy in this issue looks like some hipster/stoner dingus, Richard Wentworth himself looks like a 19-year-old poser, and it just feels wrong enough to undercut the effectiveness of any story trying to be told here. Yet, I keep buying it, because I figure it HAS to get cool eventually. That's how much I want to like The Spider. Read Full Review
This was a misstep in an otherwise fine series, so theres not much to be concerned about. And while this issue has plenty of faults, it sets up future issues well. Im still hopeful for the future of this series. Read Full Review
