The world is better when Spider-Man comics are good. This is the final issue before Dan Slott and Humberto Ramos take over ASM for the “Big Time” story line. Let's have a round of applause for the creators and editors who made the thrice-monthly ASM (mostly) a huge success. Read Full Review
I was fortunate enough to get to read this story arc every week it came out and it's delivered on exactly what we hoped Amazing Spider-Man would be when it started coming out bi-monthly. This has been a page-turner with some gasp-inducing cliffhangers and the whole premise of Spidey going through his entire rogue's gallery to protect this baby is so strong, I could even see this standing on its own. This is vintage Spider-Man. Read Full Review
As for the art, Paul Azaceta is once again joined by Matthew Southworth. As with the previous issue, Southworth's presence allows Azaceta to deliver more consistent, detailed pencils, and the shift between the two is rarely jarring. Issue #646 is a decent conclusion to the arc, and if nothing else, Harry Osborn is in store for big things in the future. As for Spidey, let's hope issue #647 can offer a truly satisfying sendoff for Brand New Day. Read Full Review
On the whole, this was a very enjoyable storyline, and if you missed out but were thinking of picking up this storyline in trade format, I would recommend that you do so, because the script was quite enjoyable, a great read all the way through. Next issue is the official end of the Brand New Day era, and beyond lies Big Time... one can only hope it'll be as enjoyable and as entertaining as it promises itself to be. Read Full Review
