Misters Hickman and Checchetto just floored me. This is the best Spidey story I’ve read in years. The characters, the subtle differences, the dynamics between them, the villains, and the way it all plays into the overarching Ultimate storyline is just brilliant. I might have liked a little more time between Pete and May pre-everyone finding out, but I’m confident plenty more Spider-family is coming. more

What a great story. Only downside is that it isn't longer. It ends right at the most interesting part.

Overall, the series was decent. Like a summer action blockbuster compared to the complex, layered paychological masterpiece that is Immortal Hulk. But to my mind, there’s room in the world for both. I’m sure the intense hate this series is getting from some is due to its proximity to Immortal, but comparing the two is like saying a Kubrick movie is better than a Michael Bay one. A dumb and unnecessary statement. more

This is what a Spider-Man book should be. Action, quips and thwips and drama building towards MJ realizing how messed up things are, Uncle Ben being there to help inexperienced Peter while we're heading towards disaster and it just works. Messina is a perfect compliment on art and it's well done, detailed foreground and backgrounds.

One of the best comic book series I’ve ever read. It’s so well written, so psychologically complex and rich in Hulk mythology that I couldn’t put it down. I breezed through the whole thing in a few days, and my only regret is that I won’t get to experience it for the first time again.

I have loved every single thing I've read from DWJ, but Do a Powerbomb remains a top favourite. It translates the greatest things about wrestling (its beautiful violence and over-the-top characters) so well into comic form.
