• SECRET WARS takes its toll on Silk, as she experiences her LAST DAYS.
• As the sky literally falls, will Cindy Moon find her family?
Rated T
Seriously, those last frames were beautiful and heartbreaking. A fitting end until we see what comes out on the other side of Secret Wars. Read Full Review
Has there been a bad "Last Days" book yet from Secret Wars? Silk #7 doesn't quite reach the emotional highs of some of the other tie-ins, but it tells a compelling and heartfelt story of its own to keep the streak alive. Read Full Review
Though clearly yanked into the ham-fisted narrative of Secret War, Silk #7 nevertheless tells a heartfelt story with some of the trappings of a "final" issue. Thankfully, when it relaunches in a couple months, we'll see Robbie Thompson and Stacey Lee back at the helm. Read Full Review
Perhaps overlooked for the infinitely more cosplayable Spider-Gwen, Robbie Thompson's Silk has been one of the best new characters to emerge from "Spider-Verse." Read Full Review
This is a solid capstone for the first volume of Silk, giving us that tease at the end with Cindy's brother just before a big cliffhanger. Thompson is crafting a very engaging comic with Silk, and I hope he can keep it up going forward. Read Full Review
Unfortunately but also predictably, the story ends up missing its mark because of it. The rushed nature of the story detracts already from what has come before, but the tie-in to Secret Wars makes it all the worse as the story is chaotic and unordered. In effect the lasting legacy of this final issue is almost to erase all of the good that was done in this short lives series with this character. She could have used a better send-off, and while she will presumably return in the new Marvel Universe, her handling here is maybe not the best bellwether for her return as this ends up being a rushed mess that does little good and unfortunately leaves the new series on a low note.

For those that like this book, I am sure that the closure of the series will bring bittersweet feelings. As for me, I can appreciate this issue in particular, but Spider-Woman will still be the only Spider book on my pull list. Read Full Review
Love Silk
The ending is probably the most important moment of this Silk series to this point but the story that brought us there was just okay in some spots. Cindy Moon has a few interesting moments but its the ending that really elevates this comic.
I have been enjoying Silk a great deal and was heart broken when I learned about Secret Wars. Her series JUST STARTED! I was relieved to hear she was coming back and anticipated a great ending to this story arc. What kind of creative ideas will they come up with to close her out in one issue??
Sadly, it wasn't creative. It was rushed and majority of the issue were "fillers" so they can get to the last page where everything ends.
I also haven't really liked any of the artwork that wasn't done by Stacey Lee for Silk so this was a double whammy of disappointment for me.
