    You should be reading Scarlet Spider. There's really nothing else to say. Believe me, this is really good stuff. Read Full Review

    I love that there's a foul-mouthed Spidey. I love that there's a Spidey who'll empty a gun into bad guys if there's a gun handy - and in Houston, there's always a gun handy. I love that there's a Spidey who is looking for every chance he can take to avoid a hard slog toward doing the right thing, and looking for boundaries for that stupid sense of responsibility he hates - whatever lines he can possibly draw so it doesn't extend to every damn situation that comes up. It feels different, fresh and it's really damn entertaining. Read Full Review

    It's funny, before he took over Scarlet Spider, I didn't like Chris Yost's work much, but I'll be damned if he hasn't made Scarlet Spider something I look forward to every month, and his work in this issue continues that trend. The Minimum Carnage mini has been pretty good so far, Kaine and Flash are such polar opposites that its great seeing them together, it's kind of like seeing Cap team with Wolverine, in the sense you have a guy who plays it by the book and a guy that does what he want when he wants. I enjoyed this issue, it was average, far from bad but nothing too memorable happened here. I can't wait to see what happens when Venom, Scarlet Spider, and Carnage are all at the same place at the same time. Read Full Review

    It's an interesting issue, I just wish we were given more information on Carnage's little pals and at least a hint about what they're planning. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Gregg Katzman Oct 10, 2012

    The highly anticipated fight between Kaine and Venom is quite entertaining and overall the book is incredibly easy on the eyes. However, we're still widely left in the dark surrounding the plot (and characters) in the Microverse and there was a significant lack of Carnage in this chapter. Read Full Review

    So yeah, there's a lot to complain about with this Minimum Carnage story, but a lot of it could just be seen as personal nitpicking. It's a solid tale, and the team up between the heroes was well written. Hopefully Minimum Carnage will surprise me before the end. Otherwise, I'll be glad to be rid of it. Read Full Review
