Rated T+
As terrifying as this new form of Morbius is, he may be needed for what's to come. The Melter has stolen some of his formula to try and transform himself and there are definitely more creatures in the near future. Writer Vita Ayala has shown us the torturous existence of this character, painting him as a sympathetic and misunderstood monster. He's been able to keep this part of himself in check up until this point, but how much longer can he do so? This makes for a fascinating and chilling read. Read Full Review
Fighting and action often make for an exciting issue, but this more heartfelt story driven issue was certainly a break from the action, and was beautiful to read. Read Full Review
Morbius combines the best vibes of 70's Marvel horror with modern wit and classic Spidey cool, making for an all-around winning combination. Read Full Review
If you like the darker Marvel properties and recall the MAX run of Blade from nearly 20 years ago (oh my god I got old), then you need to be reading this book. It takes the bright and shiny New York that Marvel often portrays and drags it into the shadows. Spider-Man serves to reinforce that stark contrast, that reminder that this is not just another super-hero book. Its a monster book first and foremost, and so far, its doing it very, very well.

While the dialogue and scripting are both still a bit lacking, the overall narrative with Morbius vs. the world is inching toward an interesting peak. Read Full Review
That was intense.
Elizabeth brings oodles of melodrama, conflict, and interesting plot developments. The script is messy, but it's chock-full of life and good ideas. The art remains lurid and dynamic, nicely-suited to a high-intensity vampire story. On the flip side, Spidey is under-utilized and ineffective.
Not the best, but I wasn't bored reading it.
Okay.
