Rabble was brutal and loved the happy ending but I think I'm done with Spider-Men, Shift was the only bright spot in the whole issue, I always forget how much I hate Humberto Ramos' art.

The way he draws makes his characters look like they are melting.

Can't disagree unfortunately
The black and white sequence was kind of on the nose but I didn't hate it. The resolution will probably make Rabble crazier though.
I'm kind of surprised how much they seem to be committing to Shift. I wonder if more people are emotionally invested in him than I am.
Miles felt more like the lead character in Spider-Men.
lol that panel was literally the one that came to mind when yall mentioned his art this issue. He's just so inconsistent, i can dig that kind of face if it was some crazy villain dude freaking out or something of the sort, but that's literally supposed to be the face a normal dude makes when he walks into a cafe and sees the girl he likes, i mean c'mon lmao. It's been a good while since i've been following a Ramos book, so the first issue made me feel like he had mellowed out on his over-expressive weird-ass character designs, but this issue 2...yeesh
EDIT: Still take him over current Romita Jr. any day of the week

I really liked it, i think cody is usually pretty discreet with the references unless you're a hardcore internet fan. I think this was the most overtly ''Shonen-Man'' thing he did, and all in all it felt fresh, creative if still a lil gimmicky(as in, that was cool, bet let's keep it a one-off)
I'm honestly not sure at this point. spoilers:end of spoilers
Those panels where she brokenly asks Miles why he took her gift away from her over and over again makes me think that her personal vendetta may have actually gotten worse if you could believe that
But once again another banger issue from Ziglar & Vicentini IMO.
Read Spectacular Spider-Men #2 and liked the plot build up and the banter between Miles and Peter.
So far with the series feels like a Saturday morning cartoon I would absolutely sit too close to the tv to watch as a kid. Not a surprise considering who's writing it.
Art wise, I grew up seeing Ramos' style so I generally have a soft spot for it.
The issue was good, the art was great as usual and the conclusion to the Rabble arc felt fitting.
I'm also surprised agent Gao got away, I don't know what she's supposed to be able to accomplish without someone backing her up.
I am too, I don't dislike him as much as I initially did but it feels a lot of work needs to be put in for the character to be more realized. He needs time to be even able to walk down the street normally, and then a real name and a new costume.
Though we could potentially get more development and a team up with Peter's clones since they were both last seen in the Manhattan sewers in the recent Web of Spider-Man book.
If I head to guess from reading the solicitation for Deadpool #3 (which Ziglar is also writing) Gao may be starting her own mercenary business like how Taskmaster suggested to her in issue #18.
Also anybody else find it incredibly satisfyingly on seeing her get knocked upside the head the past two issues? Oh sweet karma that put a smile on my face.
I just noticed the tribute to Toriyama at the bottom
This issue actually feels like it could have been a pretty good tribute considering it basically turns in to a manga when Miles' vision is messed up.
