As a lifelong New Yorker who grew up in Brooklyn, I can attest that there are a lot of characteristic similarities between Italians and Jews, particularly in NY. I am not suggesting Peter is...
The first 4 issues of the series (especially the first issue which is a classic) are all very good; it then lapses into the trope of 1970's Marvel comics (forced situations, rushed resolutions and...
I mostly agree. But, since there is a huge difference between a final grade of a B and D, it’s only fair to wait before we rate it. Though I agree he blew a shot at an “A” already by padding it as...
This is a really difficult time to assess his run; he is in the final stages of telling his biggest story arc yet of his run and the pacing has been slow with most of the big questions still to be...
Yup....you make solid points. I really dug Spencer's start on the title and then it drifted to "kinda eh" for me until "Hunted" which I really enjoyed. Then some more "eh" along with a downright...
Thanks, Jack! Yeah, probably close to 2 years or so ...... I have been keeping up with the books and glanced at the boards from time to time but haven't had enough time to wade back in on them. ...
Yeah, I feel you on a lot of what you say here, old friend. The excess padding of this story, and the 2 1/2 years of teasing, deserves a much bigger payoff----but, to be fair, I think that is...
If they added red in with all that silver it would probably look too similar to Iron Man's 1980's costume (the "transformers"-looking one).
Yeah, I think that's exactly what happened here; solicits are probably written way in advance and they just didn't correct the mistake. Honestly, Covid delays wrecked havoc with everything this...
The preview helps explain why Osborn threw in with Fisk and also the scene with Kindred saying "the darkness"(The Spot transported him to the dark dimension) on the final page of ASM. #55. The...
This doesn’t appear to be a return of Red Goblin; seems to be a revisit to his early days——an “Untold Tales” kinda thing. Not going to be set in current continuity.
Nice analysis; I totally agree----I think the ".HU" issues were quite possibly the best tie-ins for a Spider event that I can recall.
By the way, I voted "A" which---to me---does not mean it's quite on the same level as stories like the Master Planner saga or The Night Gwen Stacy Died. Those are A+ Spidey stories whereas "Hunted"...
So.....now that Spencer's first big multi-part arc is over (complete with last week's Epilogue), what do you think? Let's vote!!
No thread yet for this issue (actually not much convo on this series as a whole here which probably doesn't bode well for the future of the title) but I think this is one of the stronger issues for...
A superb issues and the a perfect story epilogue: it not only served as a wrap-up but left all the key characters in new places and introduced several new status quos while advancing the key ongoing...
That’s Kaine, right?
I did too. I can't really understand the criticism that some are levying, such as it was a rehash of KLH. Other that the first issue, which Spencer said was a tribute/sort of love letter to KLH,...
Not at all; seems like more likes it than not just reading these comments. May we will do a poll after the epilogue to take the temperature of the room.
Agreed. And Fusion was one of the better (if not best) villains introduced post-Venom/Carnage and I am shocked that another writer has not used him. (Maybe someone has; correct me if I'm wrong but...
While I still think this was a great story (will withhold a grade till after epilogue next month but can't see this being less than a B+ in my book), I def agree about Ramos' shortcomings as a...
I know we technically have one more issue to go but that's an Epilogue so, unless it alters things greatly, I am prepared to call this a great story arc. For me, it checks all the boxes:...
Wow, that would be.....dark.
And the bruising (mostly scars, I think) under his costume is all from the Vermins attack-----he said Kraven's potions saved his life as he was near death after their...
Yeah, Marvel really screwed the pooch with this character. I get why he was initially killed off to bring Peter back but Ben should've been resurrected---the right way, as a West Coast...
