I'm so conflicted on this issue.

On one hand, I love everything. Writing, art and Bane's backstory is being told.

On the other hand, it feels like we are going back to Snyder being himself. And I hope he can keep it in check, because this was already going on a bit too much with how violent it wanted to be. Sure, it's Absolute line, sure the book has been violent before, but this time it felt a bit unnecessary?

I don't know, like I said, I'm conflicted. Because on it's own, I like it a lot. But I've read Snyder's writing for 10 years now. And this seems like a sign that we might go overboard with the violence. It fits with the series, but I hope the team can keep it in check.

I have same feelings with Mann's art. At times, it feels wonderful and very fitting. But on other, I am so used to Dragotta's art and how it fits this series, so that Mann's art felt like a different world. He draws Bruce in such different way that it might seem like a completely another character from another universe.

But these are small problems in the end. I am not sure how to feel on the cop out. It makes sense to actually see what is Bane's endgoal and not just have him say "I will break you". But it also felt like waste because so much time is focused on that.

I don't know. I get why this issue can work for so many people and I can see that. But I also feel conflicted. more

I like it, but it feels like this comic just ends without a real conclusion.

It's slow paced and might read better in trade. But damn it's good stuff.

I didn't even know that Moon Knight had a daughter, and I've been reading this book for years. The change in artist really threw me off. I do like the story being told in POV, but it was definitely a filler issue. I really thought this was going to be the final showdown with Fairchild, but McKay decided to just let him get away. I'm a bit disappointed by that.

This is another good issue. Good action and character writing, Ewing has surprised me with this series. I hope he can do the same with #250 when Knull returns, because right now it sounds like a boring idea.

This felt like the least Joe Kelly issue he has made in a while. It's not a bad thing at all, I enjoyed this a lot. Maybe it just showcases how much I have underestimated him and his range these past years. Art is amazing.

As for spoilers, I believe the popular theory that the "Peter" we see is Ben. There are so many clues that it's hard not to. But I am still interested how this happened. I wish we finally get a good Chasm story. more

This book is really hard to give thoughts about.

There is so much stuff I like here. But I can't just blindly love it, because there is so much stuff that is still missing. And Peter's characterization continues to be weak compared to others.

However, I still liked so much stuff. Art, the suit, MJ finally giving us what she feels. All good stuff, but with the series ending in 5 issues, I can't stop thinking how much wasted potential this series had. Because so many interesting character moments and developments are missed because every issue focuses in one month.

Kingpin continues to be weak villain. What has he done past year that has really mattered? Only one who did anything was Kraven.

JMS still got it.

I feel like I am not this often confused by comics.

But seriously. WTF is going on. Who is this for???

Loeb is a genius, I'll give you that. It takes real talent to make everything feel messy, rushed and too slow at the same time.

I think this is the weakest issue of this run. Not to say it's bad, it's still enjoyable read, but not on level of previous issues. Since it is mostly fighting.

I do like how well Kelly wrote Peter here. He seems to have a good grasp on his voice.

But JRJR was a disappointment. The blueprint is still there, I love how his makes the story move from panel to panel. It lacks focus. But if his inker currently is undergoing cancer treatment, I can't be too hard on the art. more

Interesting ending. Not a fan of the art, but implications are intriguing.

This is just fun. Art is amazing and I like how Otto is written. All around good stuff!

This book keeps being frustrating

I liked most of the stuff, art especially was amazing.

MJ is still two-dimensional perfect wife who doesn't seem to have any problem that Peter is going away to fight the same people who kidnapped him for months last time he was in NYC

Jonah found out Peter is Spider-Man off-screen, and that's great. I would hate to see any kind of interesting writing for characters that could lead to something.

And the cliffhanger is once again exciting, but since the next issue wont happen immediately after this one, we gotta wait for month to see how month has passed and we are in entirely different setting while characters talk about how crazy last month was.

Presumably MJ will comment "no worries Peter, I am sure Richard is fine!" more

I really liked this issue. Wells run didn't have these interlude issues that focused on all different parts of Peter's life and they were sorely needed. I like most of the developments, the relationship part I am confused by. Not by the status of the relationship, more that spidey office is actually going there. Interesting choice to say the least.

JRJR was okay. I think I will always love his style, he was the artist on second ever spidey issue I bought, so nostalgia will always keep me on his side. more

It's fun and fine. Nothing special, but entertaining enough.
