    a story that is just Spider-Man hiding in a farmhouse

    After 2 mediocre and down-right lame issues, Carnage USA has kept it consistent by just offering a few good moments sandwiched between really dull, boring and predictable nonsense.

    I'll start at the end with the highlight: Venom finally appears! But before you get to that, you can stumble along at samey sequences and Spider-Man hiding in a farmhouse again for a full issue while the Avengers continue to be useless.

    This series seems more like someone sat down and came up with a story for a one-shot but for some reason it was dragged out to 5 issues. So far in the series we've had: the Avengers get easily defeated by Carnage in the space of a page, Spider-Man hide in the farm, and page-after-page of Venom teasing.

Meanwhile, the wif...

      Highly Recommended!A great continuation and addition to the mini-series. We are past the half-way point in this 5-issue mini, which always begs the question, "Will this feel like a complete series, or rushed near the end?". From what I can tell, the story as a whole was well thought out, with mini-climaxes set for each issue. This issue in particular transitions nicely from the previous issue's cliffhangers and still has a lot of great elements from the first issue.The art is great as expected, ...
