Haven't read a Spider-Man comic this good in decades. Thank god for Jonathan Hickman!

I don't throw out 10s that often, but this deserves it. Continues the great writing Priest is known for on this series and the art by Gunduz is probably the best its ever been on this book.

This was good. Some of the plot felt a little "too neat." Overall I liked it. Lots of good character work. I've never understood people complaining about Hickman's character work. He's always been good at writing distinct voices for each chat and that really shows here. Nova, Starlord, Hulk, Cho, J'son and She-Hulk are all well written. There's plenty of action and plot development for a first issue. It's not all setup and I'm interested in how things go from here. On the negative, it's clear that that is Hickman melding his usual style with the current marvel 616 house writing style. It's not pure Hickman. Which makes sense since he's not going to be writing the cosmic series that will spin out of this. It's lacking the exploration of big ideas that hickman usually does. There's some nods to current geopolitical themes, but this is definitely a popcorn comic.

Best issue of the series yet. Glad we're not spending pages and pages inside a feral Logan's head regurgitating old Wolverine themes. Great world building, plot advancement, etc. Glad that the book is finally fleshing out more of the Eurasian republic. Art is excellent but mostly invisible if that makes sense. It tells the story very well but is nothing spectacular.

Not exactly original but an exiting story with dynamic art and full of twists and turns.

Solid writing, great art. The treasury size makes for a pretty spectacular read. It's not really about anything though. It doesn't say anything about anything. There's no theme really. And there's no hook to get me to keep reading the current Supes books. I feel the same way about most of DCs mainline books right now to be honest.

A 7 is probably generous. Definitely did not live up to the Bad Idea hype machine. It's entirely setup, minimal dialogue, no character work at all. Pretty standard alien invasion story. The art is good but not amazing. I appreciated the 1.99 price point.

Art is great. Story is good with lots of bits set up for future issues. Good to see the Maker's lieutenants again. Biggest issue the characterization of Ultimate Peter felt way off. Too silly (like 616 Peter) and I felt he noped out way to early.

This is book is good but so little happens so I can't say I loved it. Essentially one major plot development re: Logan. And we learned who the leader of the Opposition is. And then a mutant with some changes from is introduced. The pseudoscience in the introduction is flimsy. The internal exploration of Logan continues to be ... Fine. It's not bad but it's not great. There's so little changed from 616 Logan, so it's mostly a retread and not compelling in the way Ultimate Peter Parker is. The art is generally excellent.

Most enjoyable issue of this series in a long time. The page where the X-Men are in a car is just perfect. But overall this issue is good because the plot moves forward and there's action for once.

It was meh. I'll pick and choose what to read of the event itself (excited for Hickman on Longshots). The decision to go almost entirely with Shen Xorn narrating the events made for a pretty dull read. And when the entire thing is retread of AoA, its even duller. There's an inkling of good ideas (parallels to manifest destiny) to, but come on, a mutant zombie plague? Zombies have been tired for at least a decade now. Art was fine, I'm not a huge Ramos fan, but not his worst work.
