    Spider-Punk rips. This book has everything you want out of superhero comics and snotty punk rock, all wrapped in one colorful, high-octane package. Read Full Review

    Born out of Spider-Verse, the rocking Spider-Punk gains his very own miniseries as his punk style Earth gets the fleshed-out treatment. A rocking first issue from this creative team as they lean into the fun atmosphere of this character and his world while diving into some relevant pressing issues all wrapped up in a colorful dynamic and fun artistic package.

    Issue #1 is often the most important issue as it is what captures and brings us into the world we will be playing in. The team succeeds in sucking us in immediately and really takes me back to my teenage days. The story is full of adventure, the colors and art appease our eyes, and overall it's a really fun issue.

    But Why Tho? - Collier "CJ" Jennings

    Apr 04, 2022

    Spider-Punk #1 serves as the perfect intro to a fan-favorite character from the Spider-Verse, as its creative team has a clear love for Hobie Brown and the world he inhabits. Future issues will no doubt continue to expand the world of Earth-138 and present new challenges for the Spider-Punk, but fighting evil and shredding on his guitar is what he was born to do.

    Spider-Punk #1 is a well-crafted, striking introduction to Marvel's anti-fascist arachnid. Read Full Review

    Yeah, there's something ironic about a giant corporation that's owned by another that's very not punk putting out this comic. Still, Spider-Punk #1 is just a hell of a lot of fun. It leans into the concept without overdoing it and going up near the line of making fun of its punk world but never crossing it. It's popcorn entertainment with a bit of a left message to absorb.

    Spider-Punk roars to life this week with a debut issue featuring Riri Williams, a sellout Kraven, and enough anarchy puns to satisfy any reader. Read Full Review

    While Spider-Man has a lot of alternate versions I would say this is definitely one of them and it is worth checking out if you are into the character. Read Full Review

    Multiversity Comics - Alexander Manzo

    Apr 11, 2022

    A fun storyline that puts some great twists on known characters, but until the final reveal of the true villain pulling the strings, it felt shaky on where it's going to go for the rest of the storyline. It still needs some more development but a good hook for a quirky miniseries. Read Full Review

    Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson

    Apr 07, 2022

    Ziglar leans hard into the punk aspects, while Mason's art and design feels appropriately hardcore for the world they're creating. It may not be for everyone, but it's definitely a good start. Read Full Review

    Weird Science Marvel Comics - mrgabehernandez

    Apr 06, 2022

    Spider-Punk #1 is a bizarre comic that mixes all the worst stereotypes about Leftist activists into a story about Spider pals fighting the evils of Gentrification and Capitalism. If this is a parody, it's cleverly disguised parody. If it's not, this comic practically dares you to make fun of it for the level of obnoxiousness it reaches. Read Full Review

    Had a ton of fun with this, love the art, love the designs. Cody Ziglar has got a fun voice for these characters and I'm curious to see where it goes. Aint nothing subtle about punk and with the current wave of queer punk, it is something I am fully embracing. Them LA show's are so much fun. I def wanna make a playlist for this series, I'm inspired!

    I'm not a punk guy (I caught maybe 2 of the spillion musical references here) and I'm really not a Cody Ziglar guy (I find his slang addiction intolerable), but this issue is a pleasant surprise to me. The plot's nothing special -- but nothing terrible, either. The pace is a little wonky. But the dialogue's solid, with the author employing merciful restraint on the slang. And the art's a lot of fun to look at. It has the perfect blend of scruff, detail, and dynamism. The visuals do as much as the words to establish this comic's passionate street-level tone.
