    Amazing Spider-Man #33 (already a notable number) lays out an enormous feat for the story ahead as it seeks to rival a piece of the Spider-Man canon but the tact and skill displayed in this set up makes that feat seem entirely achievable. This may be the best story yet in an already excellent run. Read Full Review

    A lack of confidence provokes desperate measures, and a heros failure returns to haunt him in Amazing Spider-Man #33. Read Full Review

    Gleason delivers fantastic visual atmosphere in this issue. Every page is an exercise in building suspense. Every sequence works perfectly with the tone of the story and the darkness of the plot. Read Full Review

    Spider-Man couldn't be scarier, thanks to the creative team here. New York couldn't be in more trouble, and it makes for a hell of a read. Read Full Review

    Amazing Spider-Man #33 replays a modern version of Kraven's Last Hunt with Spidey and Kraven II in reversed roles for a decently intense comic. Gleason's art is on point, and the issue ends with a strong cliffhanger. That said, this issue is an almost point-for-point remake of Kraven's Last Hunt, so you're better off reading the original, superior version. Read Full Review

    The Amazing Spider-Man #35 reads like a good one-shot homage to Kraven's Last Hunt, but there isn't much meat on the bones. Visually, it's stunning, with cool callbacks and dark moments, but none of this is tethered to the character's internal struggle or motivations. It's a loud response as Spider-Man loses himself, but to what end? Read Full Review

    That was ruthless, so much fun, and a great homage all at the same time. Exactly how you want Peter to act after what happened last issue. If you like Angry black suit Spider-Man going to town. You will enjoy this. If not 🤷"™‚️ it's not what I want for 50 issues of spidey but 5-10 ya it's an awesome arc, best since the first one.

    This was a super fun issue. It feels like everyone's operating at high capacity here. It feels like the editorial side of things have finally let the reigns go a bit. The rapid pace at which things not only have gotten better qualitatively, but also reversed within the comic itself, leads me to believe that a lot of what we got during the first year of this run was not what Wells wanted to be doing, and was more editorially driven. The nitpick here, and for now it is just a nitpick, is that the pacing may be too fast. We aren't getting a ton in the way of plot or story so far.

    One of the few legitimately great issues in this run. Really helps that Kraven is my favorite Spider-Man villain

    I have my issues with Kraven existing because it undermines what made Last Hunt so impactful but this really just takes that and throws it in reverse. Amazing pacing, amazing art. I want to credit a lot of this to Gleason because this really feels like something Gleason would do more than Wells but I can't say one way or the other. If it's both then good on them for crafting this.

    After the super intriguing setup we saw in the previous issue, this book dives right into the darker direction that was teased in Issue 32's cliffhanger and I think it works very well. This is very much about Peter basically getting revenge for what happened between him and Kraven during Kraven's Last Hunt. My favorite part of this had to be the final few pages, as it was just a crazy way to leave things off until the next issue. All things considered, I really like the darker direction this book is taking and I think it's really revitalized the title after a long period of mixed feelings.

    This was a really well crafted homage issue of ASM. The first issue in a while I can say I truly enjoyed.

    Verbal restraint, outstanding art, and terrific focus make this homage/dark echo of Kraven's Last Hunt formidable. There are plenty of little world-building questions going unanswered here--but that's entirely appropriate, as any digression would lessen the single-minded clarity of the story.

    The previous issue's cliffhanger saw Kraven attack Spider-Man with a demonically possessed spear and an ominous transformation, originally meant to awake the Green Goblin inside Norman Osborn, began manifesting inside Peter. It was a strong start to this new arc and Zeb Wells continues to rehab the webslinger's marquee series with a strong follow-up in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #33. Wells opens the issue with a short time jump and a haunting in look at what's going on inside Peter's mind as he wrestles with his new mindset, as well as a look at Norman and Kraven's own internal conflicts. Wells writes compelling dialogue for all three characters speaking with their own inner demons. You feel like you're witnessing three characters in the midst more
