    YES! Spider Island begins and it's great!!

    I think Dan Slott is becoming one of the all-time great Spider-Man writers, if he wasn't already. This new event that begins here has the potential to be one of the all time great Spidey arcs. I think it's that good. I'm a big fan of Humberto Ramos' art, and it has undeniable energy and life. The way his pencils carry this issue as it kicks off Spider-Island: it's just perfect. Dynamic action, hilarious facial expressions, this issue has it all. Keep it up, guys!

      Everyone is affected by Spider-Island 0

        Cover I really liked the art and concept for this cover. I thought it was pretty cool to see some superheroes wear Spidey’s costumes over the year. Story Peter has learned that everyone in New York has spider powers and that includes his girlfriend, Carlie. Now Peter has to stop all of this madness, but all of Spider-man’s friends cannot tell who the real Spider-man is.   Best Part In this issue we really see everyone being affected by Spider-Island. We get to see Mary Jane, Aunt Ma...

      For two straight issues I've been complaining about Dan Slott over explaining everything to death. Now that "something is happening" I'm beginning to realize that he was trying to cram in explanation and story details for new readers. I wouldn't say he's got a perfect hang of things. I mean, actions in panel are still unnecessarily explained, but it's all balanced out by the most important part of a spider-book: HUMOR!I've always loved Spider-Man for one reason: his books trend on the lightheart...
