Spidey saves the day, of course, and Teresa makes an interesting choice at the end. The plot developments border on cliché, and it's pretty corny that the Tinkerer is overcome with the power of spider-empathy. The script and the art are sincerely invested in this story, though, and that's enough to defuse the potential silliness and make this a good read. Not a great one; I doubt any of us will be talking wistfully about the resolution of the Vedomi arc 18 months from now. But for now, the day is saved and Spider-Man survives, and that's plenty.

Another solid Spidey tale that continues Chip's great run. The art seems a little less refined, but still enjoyable.
