VENOM INC. Part 4
• Spider-Man has been compromised by Maniac and it looks like his only hope...
• ...is Eddie Brock? Peter Parker isn't going to like that!
Rated T
As a diversion from the fall of Parker storyline, this issue does a good job of concentrating on another sin from Spider-Man's past. Read Full Review
A great issue of Amazing Spider-Man, with lots of interactions with other Spider characters like Venom, Black Cat and Anti-Venom, however we don't really get to see much development of the main villain, Maniac. But it's the bad “Superman 3” style Spider-Man that is so interesting. Read Full Review
Good action and great art make this a fun read. Read Full Review
I can't wait to see where it goes from here. Read Full Review
Loved Venomized Spider-Man, he was cracking me up, a bunch happened this issue I didn't describe I highly recommend picking it up. The end was pretty great although wholly expected. Anyone who likes Spidey or Venom or any of their stories will likely enjoy this crossover. Read Full Review
A solid book, even if this is one of the weaker Spidey-events in recent history. Read Full Review
The "Venom Inc." crossover remains a mixed back as it enters its latter half, featuring a muddled, action-over-character oriented story but sparking to life in its McFarlane inspired visuals. By this issue's end there's a spark of intrigue that's undermined by the story's overcomplicated machinations. Read Full Review
"Venom Inc." is a chore to get through. Symbiotes don't really move the needle anymore, especially not when centered Lee Price. This story makes me miss Mac Gargan. Read Full Review
I could tentatively recommend this one, even with the increasingly convoluted plotline. However, the dialogue sinks this ship. I wouldnt even still be reading this if it werent for the fact that Ive already read half of Venom Inc. The humor is insufferable, and the solid artwork cant save it. Give this one a pass.

Spidey here was great, but that didn't last long. Stegman's art is great as always. So far there wasn't anything too interesting in this crossover and the last page did not made me too excited.
Generic Spidey Venom stuff. Stegman is the bright light here!!
An half-issue of possessed Spidey makes for some cute sitcom-ish humor. The hero squad takes full shape: It's Flash as Anti-Venom, Eddie Brock as Venom, the Black Cat, and welcome addition Andi AKA Mania. (Plus Spidey once they wrassle his stupid mind-control mask off.) The revelation of Lee Price's ultimate target, though, is utterly underwhelming. He's gonna work his mojo on a pack of generic Puzo-knockoff goons-in-suits, the Five Families. Dan Slott (with Felicia as his mouthpiece) completely fails to make this look like the catastrophic threat it could/should be. This is a fun enough ride, but the sense that the creators are on cruise control throughout is inescapable.
Nothing has gotten me invested in this Event yet.
Whats up with Marvel crossovers these days.....Ok, thats it! I am done with this crossover. Its not interesting, it is boring as hell, Lee Price and his goons are lame. Everytime i turn a page of this issue, i would be litterally begging for the 'To Be Continued..' panel to pop up. This is a Spiderman series but ultimately doesnt feel like it and Dan Slott made him look like an idiot in this issue. I am not reading another Venom Inc. comic again. I will wait for the crossover to end then start reading back this series but i belief this is the last Amazing Spiderman/Venom Inc. issue so thank god!
This is the kind of crossover I hate. Very average story. Nothing very interesting here. I'd rather they just let the two titles do their own thing.
Just catching up on the run. Slott is all over the place here and while the art is good I have to say Spider-Man possessed and toting guns, just plain dumb. If you have super strength, the ability to crawl walls, and shoot web. Then Why?
God Dammit Slott, you were good back before Superior. If you would just have stopped back then you would have gone down in history as one of the best Spider-Man writers. Now you are literally known as an abomination to Spider-Man. This comic is a total representation of the crappyness that you fill your Spider-Man comics with!
