Miles Morales: Spider-Man #27 continues to put its own spin on the "Clone Saga" storyline, balancing action and pathos along the way. The issue's cliffhanger only serves to up the stakes, leading Miles to what is potentially the biggest battle of his career as Spider-Man. Read Full Review

Even with moments taken for flashbacks and origins, the issue never once loses any of the steam of this rapidly moving and compelling storyline. Every bit of the art has been fabulous in the previous issues but seems to find a new level to achieve with this issue, providing some imagery that sticks with you well after closing the issue.

Carnero delivers some powerful and beautifully detailed art throughout this issue. I love the visual style and both the action and character moments look amazing. Read Full Review

Ahmed's entire run on Miles Morales has been one to keep an eye on and this is turning into the masterwork of the series. Read Full Review

This one would be recommended if you are a fan of this character and want to see more of his story. It is pretty far into the series so maybe if you have been following this one already you would get more into it. Read Full Review

I often call an 8.5/10 comic "nearly great." Saying why a comic is "nearly" is usually difficult. Not in this case, though. Selim is such a dastardly smart villain -- until the needs of the plot require him to be a moron. He leaves Miles, and to guard him he picks the ONE dude on his team he KNOWS is getting sympathetic to Miles. Look up "Idiot Ball" on tvtropes.org; this is like a dictionary definition thereof. I stress that everything else in this issue -- dialogue, art, characterization -- is great. If only advancing the plot didn't require this clumsy bit of artifice!

Damn. If it wasnt for the slight corniness when miles was pleading with the one clone this could have got a higher grade for me. This really built some high stakes for the next issue.

You gotta love how much an origin ties into what's happened before and how it relates to the present. Selim and the Miles mutants have some genuine motivations and drives to survive. Unlike Miles who had a family, the fact these dangerous clones aren't even a year old, didn't have parental figures, and are deteriorating makes them rather tragic. It's completely understandable that they go to extremes towards people who threaten the lives they have left, even if it does go off the rails.

This is a fun issue. Miles' clone saga has actually been pretty good so far. Shocking everyone, I assume. It's actually a nice jolt to a series that I felt was just losing steam ever since the Ultimatum arc. I hope Saladin can stick the landing, and we'd finally have a good Spider-Man Clone Saga arc. (Clone Genesis from the 70s was okay, I guess.)

a weak issue, but still this story is going strong. Didnt really care about the Assessor too much, lets hope the upcoming issues can bring this around.
