But surprisingly, it's the writing that wins the day here. Reed is having fun with the idea of villain-as-hero, and it's nice to see him treat the character as having a good time being bad without much in the way of angst. It should be interesting to see how it plays out. If we're stuck with this status quo, it's good that we'll be able to get some decent stories out of it. Read Full Review
While it's got a few flaws, Sinister Spider-Man #2 is still one hell of a fun comic book.

Yet, the fragmented story is bit of a mess, like something that burst out of the mental recesses of the world's most enthusiastic Keith Giffen clone. Still, the Bachalo art makes it all look like it's worth your time, even if it may not be. Read Full Review
Man, the new villains are funny. It's sad every single one of them except Hippo was a one-timer... So many new villains get totally forgotten and the same ones are reused over and over and over again... But the comic itself isn't that cool as it could be. I think some decisions are weird and it could be more entertaining.
