The New Spider-man is revealed
Cover
I was excited for this issue from the cover because we were finally going to find out who the new Spider-man was going to be. I like for the cover we get to see the new Spider-man with his mask off but because of the shadow it is still a mystery of who the new Spider-man is. The only thing I did not really like for the cover is that it has Thor, Iron man, and Captain America in the background but they did not show up in the issue. So, it may be misleading for the fans who like Ultimate Captain America, Thor, and Iron Man.
Story
We find out that there is a new Spider-man in town. Also we find out that Reed Richards has gotten out of the Negative Zone and wants to change the world and solve all of life’s mysteries.
Best Part
I was excited to read this issue of Ultimate Fallout because we were finally going to learn who the new Spider-man was going to be that we have been hearing so much about. I am glad that it is a character that we do not know and we can learn so much about and maybe even have a little element of mystery in the story to find out about the new character’s origins. The character brings some diversity to the spider family that we have not seen. I heard that the reason Bendis did this was because Donald Glover, a really great actor from the tv show Community on NBC, tried out for the new Spider-man movie. So this gave him the idea to make a black Spider-man character. Which I think is really great to see.
Worst Part
Again when I heard that the new Spider-man was going to be in this issue I was very excited. So, I expected to see a little bit more of him in this issue and maybe learn a little bit about him and how he got his powers. But than we got some stories about mutants and Reed Richards. I would love to hear more stories about them but maybe this issue should have been more about the new Spider-man and they could of left the Reed Richards and Mutant story for another issue. In the series I do recognize that they have to juggle a lot of ultimate universe stories but I think it is more important to concentrate on the Spider-man story before the other ultimate stories because this series I feel is more to tie loose ends on the Peter Parker death.
Art
There were two different types of art for this story one for the mutant story and the other for the new Spider-man story and Reed Richards story. I liked the art the best for the new Spider-man and Reed Richards story. Last issue there was three different types of art and I understood why they were trying to separate the stories. But with this issue I felt like that it was not needed to separate the art and it would have been fine with one style of art.
