Not only do we get to re-explore this time of Peter Parker's life when alien technology gave him a boost (at a price), but we get to dive deeper into the psychology of Mysterio and why he does what he does. This is what I love the most so far about this title. A perfect blend of action, the snarky humor we love from Spidey and some unexpected pathos from the main villain. Highly recommended!

SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN #2 is fast-paced, imaginative, colorful, and fun. It engages readers with memorable action sequences, and engaging dialogue. Every page left me wanting more. Read Full Review
Peter David is writing a rip-roaring Spider-Man yarn with more than little bit of creeping horror thanks to the symbiote's presence, balanced by superb character work for often-two-dimensional villain Mysterio. It's an outstanding comic that is worth every penny. Read Full Review

After a solid opening issue, Symbiote Spider-Man #2 takes takes a slight step backwards as the plot meanders up until Spidey's starts trading punches with a new mutant, Hardrock. Read Full Review
I'm liking this. Mysterio is the perfect bumbling villain. I like his sad attempts at becoming relevant. Really looking forward to what happens next and the addition of Electro.
Super
This is more like a Mysterio comic, then Symbiote Spide-Man. And I'm okay with it. It is just that good.
I didn't enjoy this issue as much as the last.
That symbiote murder was pretty cool I guess.
