WOW what an issue!!!!!!! I was hesitant about this series but I love Spider-Man and decided to give it a shot. I am really glad I did! It was a very solid first issue and I love the way Taylor is writing Peter.

I thoroughly enjoyed this issue. I don't know how popular this statement will be, but I like this comic more than I enjoy Amazing. This is why there should be satellite Spider-Man comics with different writers instead of one weakly comic by the same writer.
That's just my opinion, and feel free to disagree.
I totally agree with your point on Spectacular/Friendly. I really liked Spectacular but thought it missed an opportunity to give a different flavor than Amazing. I think the best bet is to generally leave the big action stories to Amazing and let Spectacular and now Friendly be a little smaller in scope and really focus on the supporting cast and Peter's character. If they both offer similar styles people are often going to just go with Amazing since it's the "main" book. And Taylor is really good at that kind of stuff, so I think he'll play to his strengths there. Despite not being on board with the general idea of the May health issue I still really liked the issue and am very much looking forward to issue two tomorrow!
Read FN S-M #1-2 and I right liked it especially Peter Parker/Spider-Man's voice, the greatest strength of the book by Tom Taylor. Good looking art to go with!
