In the fallout from the explosive citywide GANG WAR, Jessica Drew uncovered the terrible truth behind the search for her missing son. Now, when she's at her lowest, the last thing Spider-Woman wants is an unexpected team-up. But try telling that to BAILEY BRIGGS, the spectacular SPIDER-BOY!

    Spider-Woman #5 moves the overarching story forward but does so through personal and vulnerable character-centric interactions, and I'm truly intrigued to see where this series goes next. Read Full Review

    Much better than what came before. The balance of zaniness and seriousness is not working in the book in a broad sense. I think it would work better if it picked a lane, and zany would definitely be the better lane. The way that Bailey is presented in this book is certainly interesting. I honestly can't tell if it's foreshadowing or not. At any rate, I enjoyed most of this issue.

    This one issue was more fun, and worked better, than all the Gang War issues combined.

    Finally, it felt that Jessica’s voice worked, and worked well. I’ll never be a fan of the decision to make the one woman saying “No!”, a mother, and could care less if the next time we see Gerry he is found dead behind a dumpster, but I actually empathised with Jessica for the first time. How much of that is connected to Bailey’s sadness I don’t know, but it actually turned out to be an inspired team-up, and one I wouldn’t mind seeing again.

    I might have rated this issue higher but think that the editorial team are letting Steve Foxe down. Jessica’s eyes should be green, her powers bio-electric. Whoever is responsib more
