    Lan Medina handles the art well enough. Does he bring the same intensity and feelings to the series that guys like Tony Moore and Tom Fowler did? Not really. At times, the characters look great and their feelings and emotions are expressed perfectly. Other times, there is a stiffness that borders on awkward, especially with the female characters. He does, however, absolutely bring it home with the Peter Parker and Flash's conversation. For a scene that just features two dudes sitting, drinking coffee and talking, it looks fantastic.

    A very well-done, espionage inspired cover featuring Venom stealthily perched atop a pipe, armed with a sniper rifle. I like the addition of what I assume to be a night vision feature to the eyes. Read Full Review

    This issue changes artists again which, as always, annoys me but at least it isn't a terrible artist. The issues story is a great setup. Flash's professional life is much better off but his personal life is in shambles. He struggles for control over the symbiote and a new threat lurks around the corner, yet Flash still has some old threats to get rid of. This issue doesn't do a whole lot to push things forward but it does read as a good jumping on point for people who haven't been reading. This book has been consistently enjoyable month to month and I think this issue sets just enough pieces into place for some more enjoyment next month. What do you guys think? Will this impending class between Venom and inevitable new adversary be worth sticking around for? Read Full Review

    I'm very glad that the Circle of Four story line is finished because this book is back on track for me, and I am loving it once again. Remender has taken a character who embodied what people wanted in 90s comic books and completely reinvented him and made him incredibly awesome. Read Full Review
