Overall this is a solid issue with a great artwork and an interesting story. It will be interesting to see what the final results of the Sun-Eater's powers are on the various supervillains. It is nice seeing a villain that is less used to be elevated within the mythos. The hope is that we can get a better visual dynamic to the character as the arc continues. Read Full Review

Read this with asbestos gloves 'cause it is ON! FIRE! An excellent story that will have you guessing things you don't even realize you're guessing. Read Full Review

I really have no idea how any of this is going to tie into Spencer's Kindred story anymore. This issue really cements the idea that this is just its own story, independent of whatever Spider-Man's bigger mystery villain has in store. I'm not seeing what it is that connects the two, besides Kindred being the one to revive Stan Carter and supercharge him with his supernatural enhancements. Even with that said, this issue has a lot going for it. Whether its a bigger piece of an unfinished/still-ongoing work of art or maybe it's its own tapestry, it's shaping to be a fine design.

In Amazing Spider-Man #46, Spidey and us readers get a full, clear look at the Sin-Eater's new MO. It's violent and traumatic, yet it also seems effective. This is one of those plots where the hero draws back and says, "wait, should I be stopping this?" Of course, "this" is "gunning people down with a magic shotgun," so yeah, Spidey'll no doubt find the motivation he needs. For now, though, this unsettlingly compelling look at the Sin-Eater gives the arc some impressive depth. Read Full Review

A deeply engaging second issue, that is sure to keep the reader turning the pages. Read Full Review

Amazing Spider-Man #46 is continues the momentum from the previous issue as Nick Spencer is possibly crafting the best story arc of his run on this series with "Sins Rising." The development around the resurrected Sin-Eater has come across as an evolution for the character. How this has challenged Spider-Man makes the anticipation for the endgame of "Sins Rising" be even greater after reaching the final page of Amazing Spider-Man #46. Read Full Review

I'm liking the "Sins Rising" story so far and this issue integrates a clever story mechanic that works well with the goals of the book. That makes Amazing Spider-Man #46 a recommended read on its own merit and as part of a larger story.That said, the last chunk of the book is dry, overly wordy, and decidedly lacking in Spider-Man.

Is it good? Yes. Very much so.

I've always liked darker Spider-Man stories now and then and this is becoming one more and more.

And the best part is that Sin-Eater challenges Spidey in a completely new way. He doesn't even know should he stop him.

And the art was excellent too.

My only problem with this is Norman. After Absolute Carnage I hoped we wouldn't see him in few years but he is back... I just hope not for long. I know that Green Goblin is set to appear in #49 but I don't think it is not Norman and I hope he isn't.

It's a good issue. Still waiting for Sins Rising as a mini event to hit me with it but as an ASM story it's good with plenty of call backs and intriguing questions. Ferreira on art was good but It's just weird to have 3 issues with 3 different artists so far. I get the prelude had a different vibe and the art there was perfect for it but for the main ASM book it takes me out of it to transition through different artists. The cover is wonderful though!

Art 4.5/5
Story 4/5

This was another very good issue!

A little exposition heavy but I am really intrigued. Curious to see what comes next.

This is one of the best Spider-Man stories I've read in a while. But like his 2 classic tales, a story featuring the Sin-Eater is sure to be exciting. I see he really is living up to his name. I doubt the effects will last after he's beaten.
And you can tell things are going to only go from worse to unbearable with Norman back in action. I'm really enjoying "Sins Rising" and can't wait to see how it continues to develop.

Really like this Sin-Eater return storyline. Gritty and dark, with a great writing and visual drawing.

Another solid issue. Lacks spider-man but its a great issue that keeps the tension building.

A complex flash-forward structure reveals a battle between the Sin-Eater and the Lethal Legion while also showing reactions after the fact. The Sin-Eater is getting popular and Spidey is struggling to find valid objections to his MO. It's very dark and very compelling; this issue scores big in cultivating "what happens next?" anticipation. I had a bit of a problem with the art, though: The story flow got very rough in the fight scenes, with the action on some pages only becoming clear with the benefit of hindsight.

Story is still kind of meh, to dark for my taste in a Spider-Man book, as well as the art, however I get what they are doing with the tone. I can't help but feel like this is just something orchestrated by Norman Osborn though and that Kindred is really just someone in Osborn's family, although he isn't at all in this issue.

How? Kindred is a demon or a monster.
