After Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance, The Umbrella Academy) and Jake Wyatt created SP//dr back in SPIDER-VERSE, she was one of the most requested heroes. With Spider-Geddon on the horizon, SP//dr is back. Zac Thompson and Lonnie Nadler are joining the team to bring you the next chapter in Peni Parker's life and set the table for the Spider-Event of 2018!
Rated T+
EDGE OF SPIDER-GEDDON #2 has some issues in its characterization. The newfound focus on Peni, while fantastic, does take away from the new character Addy Brock. However, this is only a minor issue in what is an all-around fantastic and intense Young Adult read. This is a story that gets me excited for the upcoming SPIDER-GEDDON! Read Full Review
A good issue that utilizes the alternate Spider-Man very well. It also serves as a reminder of how an Elseworlds tale can explore a character effectively while not skimping on action. Read Full Review
While the last few pages move too quickly towards resolution of a very tragic battle, it still makes for a stunning reintroduction of one of the best new Spider-people at Marvel Comics. Read Full Review
More. That's the gist of it. We want more. This is a great concept with interesting characters and too few pages to explore any of it enough. If an issue gets you to that point and leaves you wanting more instead of frustrated, that's a good thing right? Read Full Review
The second issue in the Edge of Spider-Geddon series remains a pretty high quality affair, but does suffer a few hiccups when it feels like a tad too much is crammed into the pages of a one shot, such as Ven#m added in and left lingering. If I knew we'd get some answers to the mysteries in this one shot moving forward into Spider-Geddon I would be more on board, but right now as Peni/Sp//dr move on to other things, and if it is like Spider-Verse I'm not sure when or if that will happen.

SP//dr needs her own series YESTERDAY.
Another very good instalment. I really hope someday we will get more stories about SP//dr and its world.
SP//dr and Peni Parker meet Addy Brock and VEN#m. Everybody tangles with an electricity-vampire kaiju named M.O.R.B.I.U.S., Peni suffers some more heartbreaking evolution of her supporting cast, and Spider-Ham yoinks her into the event before her home-universe story can nail down a satisfying conclusion. This is, simultaneously, a pretty dang good comic and a hollow imitation of the first SP//dr story. Like, I had fun reading it, but if it winds up making it harder to tempt Gerard Way and Jake Wyatt back to Peni Parker, I'd consider it a bum deal. Besides the problem of derivativeness, using two villains/conflicts makes this issue feel a little rushed and overstuffed. It's scoring high on the "forget the event and give me a dozen more issue more

I didn't think this was very well written, sorry.
