I stayed away from Spider-Man for a long time because after forty-five years (and even after thirty), his world had become so convoluted that I felt I needed a playbook to keep up. This current Spider-Man doesn't feel like that at all. In fact, with classic villains and a soap opera background, this feels far more like the Lee/Ditko Spider-Man I love, just brought up to date. That's a huge compliment to Mr. Waid and Mr. Azaceta. Pick it up. You'll like it. Read Full Review
Amazing Spider-Man #613 has a decidedly different feel from the slightly looser, more whimsical tones of the title over the past year. It's more serious and gritty here, in both scripting and artwork. But ultimately that switch from the norm is why I'm enjoying it so much, and even casual Spidey fans should be sure to check this one out. Read Full Review
Whilst this is a reasonably diverting story, it's not a particularly original or memorable one, and I feel as though the big "Gauntlet" arc needed to get off to a stronger start if it's to deliver on all of the build-up that we've seen so far. Read Full Review
Everything I enjoyed about last issue was completely undone in this one. The character work isn't bad, but considering it erases everything that worked just one issue ago, I'm not going to cut it any slack. Read Full Review
