Rated T
The series comes to a close. Its difficult to understand why. Silk is a solidly impressive mutation of the classic Marvel web-slinger formula that works SO well...especially with the unique skew that Goo is throwing into the mix in this series. Theres really no reason why this series shouldnt be one of Marvels better-sellers. The weight between the action and the drama is deftly delivered. With any luck, Marvel will look for a second run with Goo and Moon. Read Full Review
Detailed drawings are highlighted by brilliant bold colors. The actions scenes are well done and interesting. And the tone perfectly matches the story. Read Full Review
Silk is a fantastically created series that has brought new life to the title character and catapulted her back to the heights she deserves to be soaring through. The character moments, the art, the colors, the letters, the overall conclusion, and growth from the beginning are spot on. This is a series that any fan of Silk or spider-themed characters or just good superhero books needs to pick up today. Read Full Review

Silk #5 ends the latest series starring Cindy Moon's character on a disappointing note. There were some good character beats to build on for Cindy's character in the future. Unfortunately, the way this ending was structured caused the conclusion of the story for this Silk mini-series to miss the mark. The ending just came across as an ongoing series that was re-written to fit a five-issue mini-series format. Read Full Review
Silk and Saya team up to resolve their cat demon problem before Saya slips away. The fight-y resolution is rather perfunctory, but the rapid complication of the Silk-Saya relationship makes for a solid consolation prize. And as always, the storytelling chops are pretty impressive.
Clearly, this arc had three goals: tell a decent superhero fight story, give Silk some cool new antagonists, and justify an ongoing series via good sales numbers. Well, I say achieving two out of three ain't bad. The fight story WAS decent, the new antagonists ARE cool. It's a pity this didn't find its audience; maybe the ongoing plague conditions are partly to blame?
Devil's Advocate: A more engaging, inventive story -- one that inspired me more
This ending wasn't so strong. Silk saved the day, but still let the villain win, and it's just sort of shrugged off. I'm fine with this sort of ending when it doesn't feel quite so rushed. I liked the miniseries overall though.
