I wasn't planning to read it but God this is terrible.

Bland Art. Forced Drama down to throat. Blatant Misunderstanding of Parker Luck. Digger, Tombstone thing is too bland. Not interested in whatever useless drama Wells had for MJ and Peter.

May was super cringe in 2nd page of her scene. I first page everything was fine then she stood up and putting her hand above chest. That looked so cringe and crap.

Art is just so fucking terrible. Bland. more

Must be hard to lose faith in Your Gods for Ajak.

It's good issue.
Is that Eddie at last?

This series continues to be amazing. It always leaves you with wanting more. I can't wait to see how everything comes together in the next 2 issues.

Just Amazing.

I really enjoyed this event and how it resolves daredevil and kingpin. Good art too

Ending of Event that lands well. Hmmm.


Enjoyed The Event. Art is absolutely Gorgeous.
BTW, Chechetto never ceases to amaze me by how gorgeous she draws Elektra.
Excited for Relaunch. Though don't really understand why but excited to read what comes next with Fist, Hand, Daredevil. Would Chip use Punisher in next run as he is also associated with Hand currently, I wonder. 🤔🤔 more

It's an odd one.

This didn't feel like true ending, just setting things up more. Sure, Zeb Wells continues as the writer, so I'm not that against it. It just feels odd to end this volume with... such a non-conclusive ending.

Art was great. As Gleason usually is. It was nice to see thoe flashbacks to Clone Saga, to part of me wishes Bagley redraw the scenes he first did 25 years ago.

As for the story itself? I'm... conflicted.

More and more I'm just wondering, why didn't they use Kaine? He would've been a much better choice. Now Ben is just left with... something? This all felt like regression. Ben is now the same man he was before his tenure as Spider-Man, except even more confused, lost and angry.

I don't know. I liked most of the stuff here. I'm kinda interested what Wells will bring with Vol 6. But this one could've been better. more

Wow

What a hot fucking mess...

No doubt this will be "divisive" amongst Spider-Man fans, but at least its not as bad as Nick Spencer's final issue. This will have spoilers.

While this story arc is "harmless" and entertaining, I think the problem with this run has to deal with the Beyond Corporation. I did not find them interesting at all, I think the main leader (I seriously dont know their leader's name) was boring, I think they were bland people with bland personalities, and I didnt really care for them.

Next up is Ben Reily. Ben Reilly had a really interesting character arc about him thinking that he's inferior to Peter Parker because he's a clone and wants all of his memories. But the problem is that its been done a lot of times, and having Ben REily revert back to a "villainous" role called Chasm really feels like a regression. I would like Ben Reily to at least realize that he doesnt need all of his memories to be considered "equal" like Peter Parker, and he can forge his own path.

I honestly enjoyed more of Peter Parker, Mary Jane, and Black Cat's stories in this arc than Ben Reily and the Beyond Corporation, and the arc is literally called BEYOND.

Overall, the issue wasnt bad, but this entire filler arc was pretty boring. This Beyond arc gets a 6 out of 10 for me. more

This is underrated miniseries.

Fine issue. Lacklustre ending.

I was enjoying this issue right up until the end. There were several ways I saw this going and I think the outcome was the one I wanted the least. SPOILER

Making Ben a villian. Anti-hero at best but we don't even know. You can assume by the colour scheme and new name that he's not going to a hero. Marvel needs to stop crapping on Ben Reilly. They have an amazing anti-hero/villain spiderman in Kaine already. Use him for this. Kaine is an under-used and fantastic character.

I expected, and was on board with Ben not getting his memories back. I thought it a way to forge his own path, away from Peter's memories. Instead we get the old mental break down and turn to villainy cliche.

The art was great throughout. Most the issue was exciting and fun to read. That ending though... It's great when comics evoke emotion towards the characters in story. It's not great when that emotion is directed at the author. I'm the latter right now. more

I am quite conflicted on the issue.
Felt it was decent ending.
Art was quite decent throughout except one panel where Maxine face looked really wierd.

I felt that Ben and Peter fight was very much immature and forced. I didn't felt that they had legitimate reason to fight.

Thanks Zeb for reminding me why I am always so picky on Ben Reilly. It's fucking memories thing. Thanks for resolving it until next writer picks it up. Though If i remember correctly, Ben before his death during Clone Saga gave up on being Peter and memories(which were never his to begin with). But Zeb brought it back and did concluded it. That's good.

I am conflicted on what Ben is gonna be as Chasm. Villain? Conflicted. Might like it if they didn't involved Memory thing. I think Ben as Hero is lost cause. If Zeb handled it better than Slott, I might stop being picky and might change my opinion on him. I was hoping that he would atlast forge his own path by end of run. He would atlast become his own hero. But it seems like there are two path Ben as character had: cheap 2nd grade Peter or memory cliche villain.

End is definitely intriguing to check next run. But Still I am not interested in reading it since 'Peter did something', solicits, previews and most importantly art and lame idea of ASM#900.

This is so hard to describe. How can someone feel so slow, yet so rushed at the same time? The revelations here are a mixed bag. Some work, some don't.

Overall a very messy finish to Spencer's run, which I had enjoyed until Chameleon Conspiracy. That wasn't bad, just meh. But this?

This is not a good one.

So, that felt like a waste of time. Not a lot happened here, pretty skippable to be honest.

Great isdue

Really enjoyed this issue. Cant wait to see how this goes.

Beyond once again showcases it really doesn't grasp what kind of scope it wants to have. Is Beyond a bigger event with multiple characters, or is it focused on Ben Reilly once again being Spider-Man?

And this is why this one is not very good for me. It's a collection of side-stories that finish any storyline that felt was dropped the issue it was introduced. And none of them really interest me. Queen Goblin for sure and the Daughters of the Dragon somehway. Everything else? I just didn't care.

So I don't think this was important. Or necessary to read. Writers seemed to have fun but I didn't.

And why was Monica here? It felt like she had a big connection to Beyond but I had no idea what it was. And she also felt very out-of-place. Like the Slingers. more
