    Comic Book Resources - Doug Zawisza Jul 16, 2012

    I've made no secret about my love for team-up titles and the nostalgia inherent in the base concept. The best part of "Spider-Men" is the concept, which is broad enough to touch younger and more seasoned readers. Although this issue is in the middle of the series, it's strong enough to welcome new readers and brilliant enough to convince them to go back and catch up. For me, this comic is quite simply grand enough to earn my money once in serial form and again when the inevitable hardcover collection releases. It's a great time to be a Spider-fan, and "Spider-Men" #3 makes a strong case for that argument regardless of who you claim as "your" Spider-Man. Read Full Review

    This is an excellent series. Bendis and Pichelli are doing their thing with this crossover event and it's amazing! This was an excellent issue, I had no complaints with it at all. The story's wonderful and so is the art. It was a beautiful and powerful issue and I'm expecting wonderful results for the remainder of the series. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Mat 'Inferiorego' Elfring Jul 11, 2012

    This has been one of my favorite cross-over books in years, and it keeps me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I love the fact this book raises a lot of questions with what's really going on in this event. It feels like there's a lot of possibilities here, and it creates conversation between fans. Bendis and Pichelli are great on this book, and I couldn't think of a better creative team for this story. The only downside is that I feel is may be a bit rushed since there are only two issues left and we have no leads on what's going on, but at the same time, I wouldn't want something like this to drag on like every other Marvel event.

    Blue Raven Comics - Eric Scroggs Jul 13, 2012

    I can't rave enough about Sara Pichelli's art in this series. If this doesn't make her a superstar, I don't know what will. She's already up there with the great Spidey artists, as far as I'm concerned. Her blending of the 616 and Ultimate Universe styles are seamless and her renderings are classic, yet with a cool modern style on its own. Bendis, as always, is tops. The only criticism I have of this series is that it seems things are moving slightly slower than I'd like. However, I have a feeling when the remaining issues are released and I'm able to read the story as a whole, it will all seem more cohesive and I won't notice the pace at all. It's really hard to say anything bad about this, since the premise alone is so awesome. I give this issue a 9 out of 10! Read Full Review

    Marvel Disassembled - Mike Jul 12, 2012

    The issue felt a tad rushed, which might be chalked up to how short the series actually is. This is issue 3 of 5. They've got a lot of ground to cover in two more issues in regards to the plot. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Jul 13, 2012

    Spider-Men is still an enjoyable read, by and large. But now that we're 60% of the way through the series, it's time to ditch the conventions and tropes of the crossover book and focus more fully on the more emotionally resonant aspects of this story. I'm hopeful issue #4 will be able to do just that. Read Full Review
