There's also a nice quiet realization in the final moments of this issue as Joey gets a look at the unmasked Spider-Man and he doesn't see the happy-go-lucky hero he envisioned, but rather a tragic figure who is buried under a crushing sense of responsibility. As for the art, all I can say is I was very impressed, as while Paolo River's work is a bit dark and some of it looks a bit washed out, but for the most part it's very powerful imagery, with his take on this issue's villain being the creepiest rendition of that character that I've ever come across.

I dunno what was the reason they printed THIS after everything before... This should be the one-shot... The art is interesting. Paolo is an awesome artist even when he doesn't use this painting style. But here's the real art. Yeah, I think mostly these pictures are too dark. I bought this comic years ago and that's not the problem of digital scans and other things. It's just what it is... And it can kinda devalue the advantages of this artstyle. But you know what? It's still awesome and the story is definitely 10/10. Plus even if this art isn't flawless and Morbius doesn't look like a Morbius at all - it's still waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better, than Ramos. So, I'm totally okay with this "10". This comic deserves it and it deserves to be noticed among the other issues of this series. more
