The second chapter of J. Michael Straczynski's 2-part story arc following the monumental Amazing Spider-Man #500! Who's the new kid in Spidey's life?
It's another filler issue before the title moves onto bigger things and a stronger overall story-arc, but when they're as well-executed and fun as this one is, it's difficult to complain. An enjoyable commentary on one of the sillier aspects of superheroics mixed with a simple if effective plot, it's everything a good stand-alone Spider-man tale should be. Read Full Review
Once again J. Michael Straczynski, John Romita Jr., Scott Hanna and Matt Milla make Amazing Spider-Man the best Spidey book on the racks and indeed one of the best titles in the comic book store. Read Full Review
A promising idea that J. Michael Straczynski never fully realizes, as while the idea of a tailor the specializes in costume repair is a fun look behind the curtain, the simple fact of the matter is that it's not an idea that can carry an issue, and J.

Cara, é uma das melhores runs que tem por ser tão doce sabe
é uma história que definitivamente me lembrou porque eu gosto do homem aranha e como eu admiro ele
não tenho certeza se aqui é quando ele ta na coisa do totem ou se é a leo's tailoring, de qualquer jeito eu sei amo muito e me faz sentir amado (mesmo que não faça sentido)
a história é tão rendodinha, tão pé no chão
eu entendo que muitas pessoas gostam de histórias malucas e alienigenas sobre o fim do mundo, até eu gosto disso as vezes, mas ver algo mais aqui na terra, com pessoas malvadas reais mas com heróis mais reais ainda é maravilhoso
me lembra do quanto eu amo a humanidade também
This cover and the description have nothing with the story inside...
And yeah, that's the first appearance of Leo Zelinsky. He also appeared in the 12th part of The Other and... That's all. But it's a good character, I don't understand why they don't use him...
