    Peter's worst fear is the death of others

    Cover

    I love this cover. Usually white backgrounds don’t work but this issue is about death and the red on the cover makes a great cover to deal with an issue about death.

    Story

    Jameson’s wife has died and Spider-man thinks about all the people he let died and he swears that he will not let anyone die ever again.

    Best Part

    There has been many deaths that Peter had to go through. Seeing all of them in this issue was kind of a good thing for peter. You always have to face your fears sometimes. Peter does not have the fear of heights or spiders because it kind of goes with job requirement of being spider-man not to be afraid of those things. But as I have seen as I read Amazing Spider-man I see that Peter’s worst fear is death of other people. So, in this issue he had to face it but in the end he kind of denies the inedible and that is that everyone has to die.

    Worst Part

    I had no problems with the story.

    Art

    When I first opened the issue the first thing I said in my head was I hate this art. But it is not bad art for another story but for Spider-man it is bad art. So, I was very disappointed with it.

    Pick it up or not

    Pick it up!!!

Death isn't anything new to Spider-Man comics and this issue serves to remind us of all the dead in Peter Parker's life. You never really realize just how dangerous it is to be part of his inner circle.   The issue almost has two parts to it. The first deals with the death of the character and the second i...

      Review: Amazing Spider-Man #655 0

      Following Marla Jameson's funeral, Spidey has a dream which, yet again, probes deep into his sense of guilt and responsibility.  The Good Storytelling is king in this issue and I thoroughly enjoyed the breaking-from-norm techniques used in both sections. Marla's "silent" funeral procession conveyed grief in a much more poignant than any amount of overwrought, sorrowful dialog could and I found the rolling surrealism of the dream sequence to be quite alluring - - especially in the Escher-esque d...
