I mean, it doesn't really help when Hickman doesn't want to focus on Spider-Man at all. Peter can be in the issue, but if the focus is entirely on the supporting cast, that just leaves him and his family very lackluster. This doesn't mean Hickman is a bad writer, or this is a badly written story, quite the opposite. But this series does deserve criticism for handling the main character poorly. Sure, letting Hickman cook is good, but after 17 issues, I am left disappointed.

This saga continues to unfold in fun and unpredictable ways. To me, the key word here is FUN, seeing both versions of our heroes encounter key characters and events from their past and future, while maintaining the seriousness of the threat that the LOD poses.

I really enjoyed this. It's only 20 pages in one single issue, but it's so tightly paced and well-executed that I want to see more from this.

Another stellar issue that continues to explore Wally’s journey and ties up a couple of the various loose ends. The Absolute version of Grodd is also exciting and compelling, and I’m excited to follow this dynamic duo’s escapades in upcoming issues. One of my favorite Absolute titles each and every month!

gonna be honest, I had low hopes for this. Dan Slott fell off after his Fantastic Four and Spider-Man (2022) runs, but I always like to give people a chance. And he surpassed them.

Hi motorik, I was reading this issue and I was a bit confused on how Doctor Doom said there were two timelines imposing. Did it mean that Doctor Doom "time-traveled" to save the team? I just want some clarification if you read it

This just continues to blow my mind. This is the best Lemire DC work since his Green Arrow run, which to me is utterly classic.

This merges Lemire's penchant for psychological horror beautifully with his flair for family drama. This could end up as his defining DC run.

People often talk about Geoff Johns work on Green Lantern, and Justice League. But this was definitely an underrated gem that many people post DC Rebirth forgot.

If that isn't part of what superhero comics are for, then what are we all doing?
