    Dan Slott's Spider-Man run hit a slump with The Clone Conspiracy, but Amazing Spider-Man is quickly bouncing back in its aftermath. This issue delivers a fun, visually dynamic superhero romp that also asks some difficult questions about where Peter Parker's responsibilities truly lie these days. Peter himself, not Norman Osborn, may well be the real antagonist of this arc. Read Full Review

    With great art, snappy writing a few good twists and just a really fun story, Slott keeps Amazing Spider-Man rolling along just fine. Read Full Review

    ASM #26 certainly presents a new take on the legendary villain (you could even say Osborn is acting more like a Justin Hammer-esque corporate Iron Man villain), but like most of this issue, the otherwise discordant thematic pieces seem to fall into place when it comes to this this current storyline because there's still ample familiarity and fun to be found between Slott's snappy writing and Immonen's stunning artwork.

    Amazing Spider-Man #26 for the most part was an improvement over the opening chapter of "The Osborn Identity." While the Doc Ock scenes were unnecessary, everything else about how Dan Slott developed the latest battle between Spider-Man and Green Goblin provided the excitement this story needed. The ending especially provides multiple possibilities for how this arc will end. All of those possibilities do not look like it will be good for Spider-Man, at least for now. Read Full Review

    My interesthas been luke-warm so far with at the start of this latest Goblin arc, inthe pages of the Amazing Spider-Man by Dan Slott, mostly because its been heavy on action, fuzzy on character motivations for its stars, and very light on providing important information needed. Although the art is the highlight of the issue,I'm finding the pages colored way too dark lately for my liking, sinceClone Conspiracy, and hope the second half of this story returns this book to alighter color palate and tone overall.

    Lots of great action, but a weak and nonsensical narrative undermine what should have been a thrilling issue Read Full Review
