Jul 06, 2004First off I have to say that's a fantastic looking cover image, as it perfectly captures the one of the defining moments of Doctor Octopus' life, and it doesn't hurt that it's a very powerful looking visual. As for the interior art, there are a couple moments where I find his take on Doctor Octopus looked a little young, as I've always looked upon Otto Octavius as being an adult when Spider-Man made his debut, but this issue makes him look like a kid wearing his father's old suit. However, there are some lovely visuals in this issue, from the scene where Otto is performing his early experiments in controlling his mechanical arms, to the wonderfully moody sequence where Otto's mother returns home after a date.
