review 1: Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man Vol. 1 which collects the first 5 issues of the series from 2012 written by Brian Michael Bendis. Despite starring an elementary school student, Miles Morales, it has a T+ rating on the back (the only comic book volume I read with a rating). I’d agree with that, teens and up. Maybe some middle school students, since the “swearing” uses symbols and it didn’t feel very violent --there’s also a great father/son talk between two characters, which I felt was almost meant for a younger audience to hear along with adults. However, I was a bit confused as to where this title fit in Marvel: a brief foreword or introduction to the Ultimate relaunch would have been great. I believe it’s an alternate universe, where New York needs a new Sp... moreider-Man after Peter Parker can no longer fill the role … Miles is bitten by a genetically altered spider --could this be his destiny? Anyway, though I do love Peter Parker, I'll definitely be borrowing more Spiderman comics from the library that feature Miles in the future.
review 2: Seeing as they wanted to bring in a new, more diverse Spider-Man, I was a bit leery (Except for the excitement I had for the art, done by Sara Pichelli.). This turned out to be a well-done origin story, and did not pander to audiences except to entertain, and it did that while setting up LOTS of things that tempted you to continue to the next volumes.Bendis can do no wrong in my book. less
