If you're a Spider-Man fan, there's no question whether or not you'll enjoy this. This is what comics should be about. Fun well written stories with stellar artwork. Don't let this issue pass you buy if you don't normally buy Annuals. The funny thing was, in between reading and getting ready to write this review, I was hesitant to look at the price. I feared that with today's prices, this would really be steep. If you look, it's only $3.99. That right there is...amazing. Buy this comic. Read Full Review
So what's to complain about? The product may be thinner and the price higher, but at least the content is solid. But they could have thrown in a couple of pin-ups to sweeten the deal. Or maybe just put the word "Annual" on the cover. Read Full Review

But quirks aside, this annual manages to be quite a bit of fun. Were it priced at the expected $4.99 level, I might have a hard time recommending it. Luckily, Marvel is only charging $3.99. With many current books asking that much for far less content, I see no reason not to give this annual a shot. The Gauntlet may be a particularly strong example of how engrossing Peter Parker's life becomes in its darkest moments, but even Spider-Man needs a break now and again. Read Full Review
