Feb 17, 2021Spider-Woman continues to mix high octane action with deep human emotion. With a deft hand, Pacheco continues to keep our interest in the lives of these characters while Perez blows us away panel after panel with great action. It's a pairing that continues to reap benefits thanks to a rare ability to connect with the characters while also having so much fun with the art. Read Full Review

But Why Tho? - Charles Hartford
Feb 17, 2021When all is said and done, Spider-Woman #9 delivers a lot of bang within its pages. While I felt it got a little too busy with plot reveals at times, it nonetheless delivers some great character-driven moments and ends its time with a story beat that has me eager to see what comes next.

Feb 17, 2021This series has been improving over time to the point where I have added it to my pull list. With this book being the penultimate issue of this arc, it is going to be interesting to see what Pacheco has planned next for Jess. But let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. Read Full Review

The High Evolutionary provides a cure for Jessica's sickness, but there's plenty of fighting thanks to a sudden yet inevitable betrayal. I'm not at all clear on the reasoning behind the various plot developments, but it's fun and exciting to read. Pere Pérez's art is terrific; I like this rendition of "mature women in brutal combat" a lot more than #5's.
