Many will be drawn to Edge of Spider-Verse#3 since it promises some much-needed details about Spider-Boy. In general, this series continues to have fun exploring alternate takes on Spider-Man, making the Spider-Verse richer for it. Read Full Review
Edge of Spider-Verse#3 is a mixed bag of a comic, with a strong script and fairly consistent art for the Spider-Smasher story, and a hollow execution of Spider-Boys next installment. Of the two, its a shame that Spider-Smasher does not have an ongoing plot or title, as it tells the more interesting story that remixes known continuity and characters to new effect. With the right push, it could be the nextRenew Your VowsorSpider-Gwenand give Miles a boost by fleshing out his supporting casts staying power. Read Full Review
Both of these strips do a decent-not-great job of expanding their protagonists' worlds and putting out hooks for further adventures. The Spider-Boy strip is crafted a bit better, while the Spider-Smasher strip has a stronger premise (a whole AU to explore rather than a corner of the 616). Neither of them has the fire to get me really engaged and eager for the next installment, though.
