    "Taste Sensation"

    The Amazing Spider-Man: Siege
    Spider-Man finally get's his chance to fight Venom, Mac Gargon.  
     
    What You Need To Know

    Venom has been one of the villains during Dark Reign posing as a hero.  With Norman Osborn laying Siege upon Asgard, the real heroes have decided it's time they intervene once and for all.  With Norman exposed Mac Gargon leaves Asgard and hits the streets, where Spider-Man is about to let him know how he feels about his tenure as "Spider-Man" 
     
    The Good
    Brian Reed delivers a solid script.  The twists made logical sense and the dialogue was on point.  
    Marco Santucci art is pretty good, some parts were iffy, but overall he did an excellent job.  
    Spider-Man and Ms. Marvel.  
    Mac Gargon is good too.  
     
    The Bad
    Like I said before at times the art was a little weird.
    Some of the colors were a little iffy. 
     
    The Kind of Out-of-Character 
    There's a scene where Spidey basically rips Venom's tongue out.  I don't know if he would really do that, regardless of the fact that it's more than likely just hurting the Symbiote.  
     
    Overall
    While I don't think it was really needed, it was written in a way that made sense.  It's a nice, easy, one shot, anyone could read it.  The Bugle Girl introductions in the ASM books basically make most of the series new reader friendly.  
     
    3.5/5

      Venom's Favorite Super Hero 0

      SIEGE: SpidermanThis is the Spiderman that I have been waiting to see again. Reed did an excellent job capturing the essence of the character in this issue. I was glad to see the Peter Parker was at the same stage as I was questioning his role with the Avengers. I never thought he really fit into the team, and didn’t care much for the way his character was handled through much of the New Avengers title. I know he is sticking around, but I hope they can give us more moments like we had in this bo...

      This issue deals with a big fight between Spider-Man and Venom. From times to times Ms. Marvel also joins the fight. Furhtermore we get to know that Ms. Marvel seems to have some feelings for Spider-Man. That´s not something strange since they dated in Ms. Marvel # 47.  This issue was just one big fight and because it was done well, I loved it! It was very cool to see Spider-Man cracking jokes in the middle of the fight. Ms. Marvel had to figt Venom more than in one way and I thought it was grea...
