review 1: I haven't read a Spider-Man comic in a long time and this is the newest flagship title for Spider-Man, but I wasn't lost while reading it because this is the beginning of the story-arc. All you have to know is *SPOILER* Peter Parker is dead. Ok, dry those tears, he's technically ...

review 1: Wow! I'd heard so much about this book and how good it was, and while I believed it, I never imagined it would be some of the best Spider-Man material in years! The basic premise is that Peter's body is now controlled by the mind of Doc Ock, but he has Peter's memory and conscien...

review 1: Доктор октопус в теле спайдер-мена. Я знал, что это не могло быть фейлом. Просто must read, Док Ок задает вслух логичные вопросы паучку (например, почему он, будучи гением, ничего не делал для помощи себе, кроме паутинных стрелялок из рук). Стеб над прожектором тоже зачетный :D

review 1: Along the same lines of Superior Spider-man vol 1 Slott is using this change in direction to explore Spider-man in an interesting way. Doc Ock has taken over Spider-man's mind but is forced to do good. In this vol we see the return of Ramos in one half of the art duties and even ...

review 1: The Otto as Spider-Man story continues and this time it's got the Spider-Man of 2099 along for the ride! Marvel has really been laying on the time travel/alternate reality stories lately, and it may have finally caught up with them. Or, at least, Spider-Man. The future is startin...

review 1: Everybody leaves those symbiotes. Here, again the main themes of the Superior Spider-Man stories are pretty dominant: Spider-man basically acts like a supervillain through most of the book but just barely convinces everyone that things are alright enough for him to be left alone...

review 1: Volume 3 continues the magic, and it feels more cohesive than Volume 2. This series never stops delivering on the compelling premise and all it's possibilities! Vol. 3 pits Otto-Pete against Kingpin in Shadowland, and then has him square off against Slott's Hobgoblin-of-late Phil...

review 1: It's difficult to do anything new with a series that has been running for 700 issues but Dan Slott manages it. It's not *really* new, e.g. even when the new Superior Spider-Man shows what a changed character he is by delivering a 'brutal beating' to his enemies the artwork only ...

review 1: This book was a bit slower than the first volume and the series still lacks subtlety. I enjoyed each of these stories immensely but they didn't pack as much of a punch as the last volume (particularly the buildup and finale in issue #5). The internet-troll super-people, encounter...

review 1: The climax of Dr. Octopus's tenure in Spider-Man's body: as the Green Goblin defies him and begins the destruction of New York, Peter fights his way back to reality, going through Doc Ock's memories in the process. Fast-paced action, but I could have done without the cliched abus...
