Tombstone finds himself in prison after the brutal beatings he dished out, and also took, in the previous issue. But if you know Tombstone, you know that this is not quite the end of a story starring Lonnie Lincoln...
Rated T
Kingpin makes a play for his daughter. Heroes and villains wield the American justice system in their best interests. And Digger has a spectacularly uplifting experience in Amazing Spider-Man #57. Read Full Review
THIS IS A GREAT ISSUE. Read Full Review
Romia Jr. continues to create some great art throughout the issue. The visuals are wonderfully detailed and perfectly capture the mood and tone of the story. Read Full Review
While The Amazing Spider-Man #57 has some awkward moments in story and art, there are far more where they work together to push the story forward. Read Full Review
If you like crime family drama, Amazing Spider-Man #57 will satisfy you. Tombstone has to rush to prevent himself from going to jail for a long time, but can he kill his own daughter? I guess we'll find out by the end of the story arc! Read Full Review
Zeb throws some major curveballs at readers here and the writer's strengths, for me, normally revolve around Peter's "lower stakes" adventures. Read Full Review
Amazing Spider-Man #57 ratchets up the stakes, action, and tension when Tombstone makes bail and takes steps to make sure he stays out of jail. Unfortunately, the goodwill created by building momentum is spoiled by a bizarre trap that's too dumb to believe. Couple a bad creative choice with bizarrely inconsistent art, and you get a wildly uneven issue. Read Full Review
Plot
Spider-man, She-Hulk and Mayor Luke Cage take Tombstone to jail, however, Michele his lawyer manages to get him out on bail, until the trial begins, the detail is that the key witness is Janice Tombstone's daughter, who agrees to take her father to jail.

This is another exciting episode full of action and chases, where nothing is what it seems and th more
Hey, if Zeb Wells had written this kind of arc from the beginning, he would be considered one of the best Spider-Man writers instead of being hated by the fans. A very solid comic, full of action and strong characters, what more could you ask for?
This issue was intense af.
Turns out my prediction was the same one the characters made... and the wrong one. This is one of the strengths wells has that gets overlooked I feel. Our expectations are "Lonnie would never hurt Janice directly, hed just kill someone close" and at the beginning of this run he wouldn't have. Thats something Tombstone practically laid out himself over the course of the run, between gang war and even the planned wedding. He has for the entire run put Janice's wants over his own. Except for two times, the end of gang war and now. This calls all the way back to tombstones flashbacks early in the run, where he was powerless to protect himself. Now with that power in his sight and in his grasp, he isn' more
If only the quality was like this the whole time. This has been a good arc so far.
