This has continued the good track record these Siege tie-in specials have earned. Both the Young Avengers and Captain America issues were better than they even needed to be, and so is this. Even though this is just a "bridge" to get readers from one part of Siege to the next, it's an enjoyable story in itself that delivers on what you'd want out of a superhero comic. Read Full Review

The only thing really holding back this issue is that it adds absolutely nothing to the overall Siege story. All the events occurred before the end of Siege #3 and are pretty meaningless in the overall scheme of things. To some readers, that may be a deal breaker, but that shouldn't completely discourage you from giving this a chance. That's especially true if you're a Ms. Marvel fan, since it sheds new light on events from that series. In the end, it's a fun story with a creative fight and pretty art, which isn't a bad combination at all. Read Full Review

This is not your usual face off between Spidey and Venom. In a lot of ways they sound like old sparring buddies from the same gym. The wise cracks and irony run at an all time high but then there is a little extra spice added to the gumbo. Namely the cosmically powered Ms Marvel who has recently had a date with Spider-Man. They have an interesting dynamic that I hope we can see more of. In one corner you have got the tough, military driven Carol Danvers and in the other you have the sarcastic science wiz Peter Parker. At first it does not seem like the two would mesh well but there certainly is some chemistry there. Now outnumbered two to one Venom does the only thing he can to a cosmic foe. The symbiote takes over Ms Marvel! Read Full Review

Siege Spider-Man was surprisingly an entertaining read. This one-shot did nothing to add more to Siege. This was nothing but a filler issue that most can pass on. But if you have been looking for Spider-Man and Venom to finally face off than you will definitely get your moneys worth with this one-shot written by Brian Reed. It gives you everything you are looking for in a fight between these two long time enemies. So if you are a Spider-Man, Venom, or Ms. Marvel fan pick this issue up. Read Full Review

I'd put this one almost exactly on par with last week's Siege: Young Avengers as a good time if you're a fan of the characters, but probably not all that essential otherwise. Of course, I'd say only Siege: Loki could be considered "essential" at this point. Read Full Review
