Overall, you can't beat the Free Comic Book Day 2024: Spider-Man & The Ultimate Universe #1. Packed with little moments and great art, it's free and definitely a must have if you're heading to the comic shops today. Read Full Review
ASM: Really intriguing and engaging for a FCBD story. It's nice to get a good hook though for those just picking this up because it was free, no one will have any idea what is happening. I wouldn't blame current readers for being a little lost. It could take place any time pre or post Blood Hunt really. The biggest takeaway here is the final panels hinting that Norman may be up to something or has been for some time.
Ultimates: Really cool intro to WWII Human Torch. Seeing all of the lost heroes is kind of heartbreaking but Hickman loves his Easter eggs. I really enjoyed the dynamic between Cap, Doom and Iron Lad. Will definitely be picking up The Ultimates when it releases.
Venom: Not really the biggest Venom fan in the world alr more
The Amazing Spider-Man story sets up an interesting wrinkle in the ongoing story unfolding in that title. I assumed that the Sinister Six was the one attacking Oscorp's servers, but maybe not? If it is, though, that changes the whole dynamic of the set up of this upcoming Going Green storyline. Also, this issue seems to almost confirm what has been hinted at before, that some part of the Goblin is still in Peter. The art by Stegman feels a bit rushed, unfortunately. It's a bit scraggly. It's still good, but not on the same level as his usual output.
The Ultimates story has some interesting character work and a lot of fun indications of where things are going, but I'm not sure what to make of the title just yet.

All these were pretty good.
