    Co-signed! I raced through #4 this morning and as much as I loved it, and thoroughly enjoyed just getting to spend time with the characters... it left me wanting more.

    I've definitely been spoiled...

    They're very different types of tragedy. If one of the kids dies and Peter feels responsible for it then we're either looking at a very different, dark and depressing Spider-Man or the triviality of...

    That's the main hope at this point. And to be fair that could well be the case; there are lots of questions from what little we've seen so far. It just feels a bit rudderless on first impressions.

    Just caught up on the reveals and man, this is underwhelming.

    I know Krakoa wasn't for everyone, but after that period of creativity and evolution this seems like being a step backwards.

    I...

    Yes, 100%. Norman's return was the start of the book's aggressive position on restoring a status quo.

    Completely agreed. If we changed the character names and appearances but kept everything else the same, I doubt many would even guess it was a Spider-Man book.

    It's a promising start and the setup...

    Yes. But his powers are specifically linked to the accident that blinded him.

    I haven't read Ultimate Invasion (yet), or any of the backstory to this new continuity, but had absolutely no problem understanding the main beats as presented in this issue.

    I liked it, and see a...

    As a young teen this was my era of Spider-Man comics. The Chameleon arc in SSM has always stuck with me and I was a big fan of Identity Crisis and Slingers (12 issues gone too soon). The artwork was...

    I haven't picked up a Spidey comic in years and I'm really looking forward to this.

    Elder millennial here. Pro marriage, original Ben Reilly/Sensational Spider-Man fan. Finds the good in every big screen Spidey but finds Peter B Parker the most recognisable. Love that Miles has made...

    I love this idea. It would let us have the clone bros back whilst giving them their own unique invective.

    I voted "other" because none of the answers felt quite right, but after giving it a day's thought my answer could probably align with the Clone Saga. Being specific, it's the moment Norman Osborn...

    The elephant in the room is still that the marriage was retconned as a result of a deal with the Devil.

    Married or not, to me that's a huge factor (probably the biggest) in Spider-Man's...

    Aww man, really sad to hear this. His artwork on X-Men back in the late '90s absolutely blew me away; there was a fight between Marrow and Wolverine he illustrated that remains among my favourite...

    Oh I know, and I loved it. I had hoped that The Last Hunt tease at the end of BRSM #5 meant more Ben, but as I said we didn't know one way or the other. Pete and MJ in Portland is still something I'm...

    Shame this series isn't about Ben, but then that was only ever a hopeful bit of speculation anyway.

    DeMatteis' '90s Spider-Man work is some of my favourite Spidey and BRSM was the most I've...

    I thought/hoped that would be the case after the scene where Steven prepares for the date.

    Really hoping this show continues some of the intriguing character threads that have been dropped/hinted...

    I actually really liked how the carpet tool was used.

    Batman spotted the indent it left at the Mayor's home, and quickly deducted that it was the murder weapon when it was found at the Riddler's...

    Hellions #5: The characters are supposed to be unlikable, I get it. But even knowing that, I still struggled with this issue. I'm gonna put it down to my general disdain for Otherworld and the...

    Hi! My name's Joe and I'm from the UK - Northants to be exact, which is pretty much exactly in the middle and nowhere near the North.
