But where some readers might see the plotting of this book as overly convenient, I like to think of it as unpredictable and open for anything. And really, isn't that what we wanted to see for Marvel's "All-New, All-Different" titles? Dan Slott and Giuseppe Camuncoli have put Peter Parker in a whole new arena, one where his capabilities are limited only to his imagination. It's not just a great place for the Friendly Neighborhood Webslinger - it's a great place for his fans, as well. Read Full Review
The new volume of Amazing Spider-Man is exciting in a way the previous series sometimes struggled to achieve. The new status quo is great, lending a much bigger scope to Peter's world while retaining his basic appeal as a well-meaning but unlucky hero. But as often as Slott's previous books became bogged down by too many simultaneous plot threads, it's worrying that this series might be moving in that direction as well. Read Full Review
"Amazing Spider-Man" #4 is another great installment in a fun series. It's nice to see the character handled with respect and inventiveness; hopefully, this new direction for Spider-Man will last a long time. Spider-Man is in great hands with Slott, Camuncoli and Smith. Read Full Review
Dan Slott's latest chapters on his epic Spider-Man saga are as frustrating at times as they are fun, and they are certainly a lot of the latter. Read Full Review
Amazing Spider-Man #4 might feature the most true-to-form Peter Parker tale of the new status quo, but the repetitive nature of the narrative is becoming wearisome and the book lacks some of the tech-inspired visual appeal of its predecessors. Read Full Review
If the rest of this series can keep up the quality of this issue then I'll be happy. This comic shows that the real Peter Parker that we know before he got famous is still very much alive. It really shows that at heart is still the hero that he always was. There are a few subplots that are introduced as well that are bound to result in some fun in the upcoming books.
Even more subplots are being introduced. This will either result in a really good story or will be a huge disappointment.
Basic, but competent. This felt like a pitstop before getting back on the road, and it was enjoyable.
Woeful bad issue. I'm dreading to pick up the next one
