A Great Finale to a Fun Miniseries
Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four wasn't a ground breaking miniseries, those of you looking for Silver Surfer Requiem level quality will want to avoid it, and yes, the primary reason for its existence is to cash in on the two recent blockbusters that came out this summer. But who cares? This series was a hell of a lot of fun; the interaction between the characters was spot on and will make you laugh. The artwork by the dearly departed Mike Wieringo is beautiful and really fits the tone of the series, and the ending wraps up everything both nicely and in a satisfying way. I've never read Jeff Parker's stuff before, but after this, I'm interested in seeing more from him, particularly on a more serious title. Don't let the far out sci-fi plot turn you off, this is a great buy for those of you with a little extra money left over from your pull list. What else are you going do with it? Put it in the bank? Hah!
