Plot Spider-man and The Human Torch manage to escape the attack of Absorbing Man and Hobgoblin, and then meet Falcon, Iceman and Daredevil with whom they form an alliance. Hobgoblin and Ansorbing Man meet with other villains such as Baron Zemo, Electro and Constrictor, who prepare an offensive. This battle is still part of an experiment on Spider-Man's leadership abilities, who now begins to see how the costume behaves strangely and makes his thoughts come true. Exciting story that nourishes the original event, maintaining the tone of Secret Wars. Art It is very detailed and preserves that vintage tone of the comics from the 1980s but at the same time refreshes them with a cool dynamism. The way it shows what Spider-man's we more

I think the art is the best part of this, and that's not particularly memorable. Every other element--characterization, comedy, pacing, premise, conflict-- is clustered between "forgettable" and "thoroughly average" on the quality scale. It all adds up to an issue that COULD be a good comic if it had just one really outstanding piece to elevate the rest of the package. But I think that piece is missing. This deserves a ratings bump from readers with some strong nostalgia for the original Secret Wars, though.
