The finale to the Ben Reilly miniseries went out on an action-packed note. Read Full Review
This is the book for Ben Reilly fans who are mad about his hard road and fan pushback, delivering on the promise of a "lost adventure" that feels like an regular Spider-Man book from 1996 (in ways good and not so much.) Read Full Review
This score is reflective of the entire miniseries.
"Ben Reilly: Spider-Man" is an expertly well-written and drawn tale of Peter Parker's famous clone that explores the concept of humanity. "What does it mean to be human?" is the general question of the story, and I think the creative team did very well in that. This miniseries is the perfect introduction to the character.
There was no reason for this mini-series to be as good as it was. What a great finale. I hope with this, Marvel can bring Ben back as himself, not as wannabe-Kaine.
This is the best spider-book on stands! It doesn't dwell on wasting our time with filler or mystery box characters or 6 months later. It focuses Ben Reily as a character and his relationship with his clone brother Spider-cide. The art he was fluid and supported the action well. I hope we get more of these by the same creative team!
The creators tie a tidy, well-illustrated bow on this little story. There's solid character growth all over the place, good fight scenes, and consistent themes tying the characters together. That consistency still tends to make the character work feel a little repetitive, but that's a very minor fault.
I like seeing creators reach for daring goals. But this series reminds me that it's also fun to see experienced folks work with utter confidence inside their wheelhouse.
A really fun miniseries. DeMatteis still has it.
I'm sorry, I love JMD but this ending was just terrible, it felt really cliched and predictable and the script was pretty cheesy
