Sep 19, 2018We can only hope this team is given a chance to do more with Spider-Ben and Spider-Pete, as this is a tremendous issue of superhero comics that deserves a future. Read Full Review

Newsarama - David Pepose
Sep 21, 2018There's a lot of love and a lot of thought put into this comic, and it winds up being the kind of read that feels reinvigorating and exciting, even without universes collapsing or any big names biting the dust. Instead, we're given a story with honesty, with stakes, with perspectives, with conflict, and most importantly, with a sense of redemption. Read Full Review

Sep 20, 2018EDGE OF SPIDER-GEDDON #3 excels at its characterization and its building of a realistic, noir version of New York City. While certain elements of the story needed to be touched on more concretely, overall this is a fantastic story with incredible art and character-building. Read Full Review

Sep 19, 2018The entire miniseries has been top notch so far and this issue again leaves me wanting more of these characters. It's a touching comic which may leave you an emotional wreck by issue's end. Read Full Review

On Comics Ground - Alec Thorn
Sep 21, 2018A lackluster one-off and prequel that has some merit, but overall fails at introducing these new versions of Peter Parker and Uncle Ben. Read Full Review

AIPT - Forrest Hollingsworth
Sep 19, 2018A fun and surprisingly raw introduction to a whole new Spider-duo, this is a worthy entry to the Spider-Man family, and especially to the current story -- though it does spread itself a little thin. Read Full Review

Latour nails the Father-Son, Superhero team dynamic in the debut issue of Spider-Ben & Spider-Pete. It's fun watching the plucky and carefree Peter play off his more grizzled, working class Uncle Ben as the stop crime in NYC. Love these two and can't wait to see more of them in the future!

The most unexpectedly awesome comic I have read this year. I came in expecting nothing and came out legitimately touched with this story. Excellent writing.

Nice to see Peter Parker as a sidekick, even if he's only a child here (and hence feels as a totally different character). Uncle Ben's narrative was great too.

Spider-Ben recounts a jumbled-up but fascinating story of his crime-fighting partnership with his nephew. This issue delivers a huge amount of story information, but it also feels like the aggressively complicated structure is a questionable choice. Each scene's plot developments are tied into dense little knots, and the untangling process is exhausting. And there are some ambiguous points that just refuse to make sense. An infuriating editor's note suggests this issue might be both prologue AND epilogue to this team's role in Spider-Geddon. The visuals have a sketchy finish but the layouts are beautifully crafted, which I like a lot.

Been attracted by the cover, I'm very disappointed by this one. The story is hard to follow. And it's less funny than the cover seem to promise. Kraven last hunt is one of my favorite spider story, so I believe these version of Peter & Ben deserve much more than what I read. Seems like their is something missing. A soul ! Cover - Very fun & that the characters, but outside this, not related. 1/2 Writing - That could have been worse, the story isn't that bad, just disappointing for me. And really hard to follow. That could have been better (After all The Aaron Aikman Edge of Spider-verse story was a one part & was really amazing). 1.5/3 Arts - The art don't help. No difference between present & the story form the past Ben tell. So I don more
