    Seeing Red

    Ill start off by saying that it's nice to see WebHead or really any hero being perfectly reasonable. He isn't going to take down a massive robot, there is no reason to attack some birds, and he has a really hard time getting around. Poor Spider-Man is a sad sad boy with no time on his hands. Let me also say that this is a very interesting issue. I don't know what to think about it, is it a spider man title or is it more of a team up issue. I don't know, I love his banter with big red. It could use a bit more dialog or explanation. Also, if someone could tell me when is the last time the Moleman a Manhattan-centric supervillan has ever taken on SpiderMan. It's got fantastic artwork, wonderful dialog, good witty banter. All I expect from a good Spider book. Let's hope Web Wells can keep it up.

    The Good:

    A nice, solid spider book. Can't put more of a stamp of approval on this thing. If you love the Avengers but wish there was more Spidey then this is the book for you.

    The Bad:

    I think that JJ seemed more unreasonable than he usually was. It just seems like they want the man to match the stash.

    Buy:

    Yes, if you like good writing or even just good art pick this book up.

      I apologize if you thought Jack Kirby rose from the dead to haunt us with some amazing pencils. I was referring to a certain Joe Madureira. One of my favorite artists of all time. His fluid pencils and stylized poses alone are enough to get me to read the book. If a braindead chimp was hammering out the script by seizing on a typewriter, I would still pick up this book if Joe Mad was the one penciling it. And have I ever mentioned how much I love that he doesn't use an inker? I think there are v...

      Maybe Spidey will get to say "Avengers, assemble" in this series 0

      Synopsis: Spider-Man teams up with Rulk. What's Good? What I noticed about the two Avengers books that Spider-Man is a part of is that he seems like a fifth wheel in both groups. He's the funny (annoying) guy that just pisses you off especially when the situation is serious (and the way both series has been so far, there have been some tense situations). But let's put it in Spidey's perspective. While he did some amazing things as a superhero, I can understand why he feels out of place with hero...
