CIVIL WAR II TIE-IN!
• Ulysses' latest prediction has the whole Marvel Universe on Miles' tail
• Escape is out of the question, but survival might be, too.
Rated T
I really enjoyed this issue and it was a much needed win for team Bendis because the race talk shit is killing me, fam. And it always happens on the even numbered issues that I review while Will gets to fuckin sit back lookin' with the odd numbered issues he review lookin at me like, "sucks to be you". I'm glad to see Bendis back on that trap house story telling he excels at. This issue felt long too which I liked; Bendis was able to get a lot into this issue as if it was just a busy day for Miles and it worked very well. This is probably my favorite Civil War tie-in and even issue of this series' run so far. Read Full Review
Good issue and a good tie-in. Art was great. Bendis was as is usual and issue had some stakes unlike the previous issue. Read Full Review
It seems like there's a Venom battle on the way, so we're looking toward to a more Spidey-feeling issue. Getting involved in Civil War II causes Bendis to bend some of the usual elements to fit the event, so we're hoping for it to get back to basics. Overall it's a good issue and ties in quite well to the big event, which we can't say for a lot of the tie-in issues. Read Full Review
This tie-in to Civil War II has got to be one of the best I've read so far and actually made me start thinking that I should read the event........ I probably won't, but I still thought about it for awhile. With this tie-in, we saw Miles have to consider a lot of things and I can't wait to see what type of person that Miles becomes after this event is all over because it really feels like he's going to have to grow up fast. Great art, great story, I love this Spider-Man. Read Full Review
Spider-Man #8 is a funny, expertly drawn comic book that gets totally bogged down by retreading the same ground other Civil War II tie-ins have been covering since July. Read Full Review
While this book does seize and jerk a bit in pacing when Bendis has to swerve into the greater Civil War II, the character work and the art make Spider-Man #8 worth a read. Read Full Review
If we have to have a crossover event and have to tie in a character's solo book, then this a thoughtful way to do it. This is a story about disillusionment, conveyed through believable human moments and intense artwork. Unfortunately, that same disappointment carries through in its half-baked handling of Miles' racial identity. It's been five years; hasn't Miles earned the right to be more than a novelty?

Myfavourite civil war tie in yet. Like everyone always says Bendis can really write well when he wants to. Now if only the event books were this good....
While this felt like a way to push Luke Cage and Jessica Jones into view, it was in a way that did not bother me. This issue ties in heavily with the latest issue of Civil War that was released (#5) and would answer some questions that you might have from missing story in that issue. A clear road is being paved towards the formation of the Champions and I feel it has been enjoyable.
