@Elbarto17: @bjparks:HEY GUYS!!!!!!!!!! WHERE THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN!?! Ah Well. Anyway, We've Had Some Really Good Releases Of Some Spider-Related Titles Such As Spider-Force, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Girls, PP:SM, ASM, And Miles Morales:Spider-Man. Here Are My Thoughts.
For Spider-Force:
Really Interesting Issue. The Issue Takes Place Before Issues # 4 And 5 Of Spider-Geddon. Really Interesting To How Chhristopher Priest Handles Kaine. He's A Clone And Not Like Peter. But, With More Of A Conscience. I Also Like The Bit With Charlie Planning To Make A Move On The Inheritors Like A Game Of Pokemon. Hope We See More Of Charlie In The Later Series. I Also Find It Sad That John Jameson Was Killed By Verna As She Was Resurrected. Also Nice To See Jessica Thinking About Her Kid. All And All, Really Interesting Issue. Can't Wait To See How Things End. And i Really Hope That Christopher Priest Handles Kaine In A Possible Relaunch As Well As Ben Reily.
For Spider-Gwen:
Pretty Interesting Issue. Really Nice. We Learn That Betty And Glory Of This World Are Journalistic Reporters And vAre Slightly Older Than Spider-Gwen's Counterparts. We See Gwen And MJ Working Together And Try And Stop This World's Gwen. Really Like Hows MJ Was Feisty And Aggressive Yet Kind And Helpful. Kinda Like The MJ We All Know. And The MJ Spider-Gwen's World Should Be. Anyway, Gwen Goblin Reverted Back To Her Normal Self As MJ Tries To Talk Her Through It. Betty And Glory Were Kind Enough Not To Reveal Anything. And So, Gwen Gets Back To Help The Other Spiders Thanks To This World's Gwen Creating A Portal Device With Her Blood. And So Gwen Goes Home With The Three Counterparts Of Her, MJ, And Peter Staring As The Portal Closes. All And All, A Pretty Good Issue. Really Nice Story Here Between Gwen And Her Counterpart. But The Thing That Gripe Me Was That If Harry Was Killed, Why Hasn't People Like Betty And Glory Knew That He Was Spider-Man? I Mean, Haven't They Got Any DNA In The Crime Scene? Also, Gwen Was Pretty Hard On Peter. Reasonable With Her Situation. But, Felt Pretty Bad For Him With How She Responded Since She Got Here. Also, Did Anyone Else Here Feel That Gwen And MJ Were In A Relationship? Also, The Fight Between Gwen And Her Counterpart Could've Been Longer. All And All, Pretty Good Issue. Can't Wait To See How It All Ends.
For Spider-Girls:
A Pretty Solid Entry And Conclusion To This Series. I Like How Annie Tries To Take So Much Responsibility After Her Years Of Being A Spider-Hero. Like This Is Suppose To Be The Most Important Task Of Her Life. And So She Connects With The Scroll And The Portal Opens Up And Thanks To Her The Web Of Destiny Has Been Resurrected Once Her, May Day, And Anya Have Been Sent To The Remaining Headquarters Of Karn. I Really Like How They Brough Back The Goblin Machine Normie Had Back In The Last Issue Of RYV. I Also Really Like How Annie Opened Up To May Day Finally Reconnecting As Sisters(But, from Other Worlds). It Was Also A Relief To Have Normie And The Rest Of The Victims Survive. But, I Do Wonder That Since The Vampire Twins Are Now Stuck In This World Does That Mean We Are Getting That As Part Of A Relaunch. But, Anyway, With The Portal Open, The Spiders Can Now Fully Assemble Including The 616 Version. Really Hope To See Peter Of That World Interact With The RYV Versions Of Himself, MJ, And Annie. Anyway, Pretty Solid Issue. Pretty Solid Conclusion. Really Great Art. Congrats On Jody For This Series. And I Really Hope To See Where This All Ends.
For PP:SM:
Man, Do I REALLY Love This Issue. I Really Love How Peter Is In This issue. Intelligent, Cunning, Clever, Smart, Strong, And Of Course Witty. Outsmarting Morlun And Beating Him In A Very Classic Way. I Also Love The Speech He Made To Him Once He Beated Him. It Was Really Badass And Everything Spidey Should Be. I Really Love How The Stakes Were High Between Him And Morlun. And I Really Love How Their Battle Ended With Morlun Wearing A Ridiculous Shirt And Ripped Pants As He's Being Beaten By Spidey. That Shows True Humiliation Of A Guy Who's Suppose To Be Deemed As Invincible And Superior. Really A Classic Way Of How Your Foe Or Oppoenent Is On The Verge Of Being Beaten. I Also Really Like How Jameson Has Been Involved In This Especially Towards The End As He Tries To Offer Him A Ride Home. I Also Really Love How The Swat Team Try To Help Out Spidey. Very Cool. I Also Love The Ending Where Peter Tries To Take A Deserved Rest When Spider-Gwen Tries To Bring Him In To Help The Other Spider-People. Feels Very Real And Relatable When You Read His Thoughts. Feels Like How We Feel In A Tired Situation. The Art By Juan Figiri Is Some of The Best Art I've Seen In A Spider-Man Work. Really Captures His Fluidity And The Battle Sequences Were Actually More Organic. Felt Actionworthy. The Stakes, The Battle Scars, The Bruises, Everything Really. Feels Like How A Battle Feels. Would Really Like To See Figiri Do More Spider-Man Work. All And All, This Was A Really Good Issue And A Nice Solid Tie In Arc. Felt Like a Very Classic Spider-Man Story With Hero Vs Villain. In Trade Paper Back, This Would Be Very Nice And Refreshing To Read. Sean Ryan Really Outdone Himself. Really Sad To See This Series End. But, This Was Really Great Otherwise. Hope He Does More Spider-Man Related Work. Same Goes For Juan Figiri. Hope Tom Taylor Does Well On His FNSM Series. All And All, Really Great Issue. HIGHLY Recommend The Trade Paper Back.
For ASM:
This Was Another Solid Issue From Nock Spencer. Really One Of The Funniest I've Checked Out. We See That The Story Takes Place On Christmas. And What Better Way To Conclude The Year With The Month Of That Holiday. Anyway, I Was Pretty Skeptical And A Bit Concerned With How They Would Handle Jonah Now That He's Pro Spider-Man. And Thankfully I Have To Say That Even When He's Now Pro-spidey, He's Still The Same Jolly Ol'Jameson we All Know Him As. Loudmouth, Ranting, Enthusiestic, Fully Of Energy, Yet A Bit Egotistical As Others Pointed Out And Quick To Even Side With Guys Like Fisk As He Brought Hiom Back To The True Position Of His Honor In This Celebration. It's Also Nice To See That His Relationship With Spidey Is Still As Entertaining As Ever With Spidey Pointing Out His Situation And Action And Jonah Pointing Out His So Called Hypocritcy(Like That Billboard Of Him With Fisk As They Look All Buddy Buddy(Which Setted The Other Heroes Off)). We Also Have Villains Like The Enforcers Who Have Some Very Nice Depictions From Ryan Ottley. Spidey Handled Them Off. But, Was Beaten Thanks To Fancy Dan's Idea Of Distracting Him As He Tries To Kill Jameson. And Now We Have Some Return Of Some Villains Who Not Only Want A Piecev Of Spidey But Jameson As Well Such As Scorpion, The Big Man Foswell, And The Spider Slayers. And Besides That, We Also Have Some Appearances Of Robbie Robertson And Randy As They Celebrated The Holidays. But, Only Shortly Since His Wife Is Away On A Trip, His Son Is On A Date With Some Girl And Peter Had To Take Care Of Stuff With Jonah. We Also Have Some Nice Appearance From The Hippo. The Humor Was Also Really Hilarious With Some Relatable Situations Like Parents Fighting Over Toys For Their Children, Some Fleshed Out Dialogues From Each Characters Such As Spidey, Jonah, And The Enforcers. The Bit With Robbie Was Also Nice To. Love Having Him Around Being All Cool To Peter. The Art By Ryan Ottley Is As Great As Ever. Capturing Spidey, Peter, His Movements And Does Some Really Nice Job With The Action Scenes. Really Love His Take On Jonah. Really Love His Take On The Villains Such As The Enforcers. Really Nice To Have Ottley Back After So Long. Hope To See Him Continue More. Also, Someone Pointed Out That Randy's New Girl Might Be Felicia. n I'd Say That'd Be Crazy. What Do You All Think? But, Anyway, This Was A Really Brilliant Issue From Nick Spencer. One Of The Most Enjoyable From Him. And This Was One Of The Best Works I've Seen From Ottley. Truly Captures Spidey And His World And Truly Considers Himself A Classic. Really Great Issue. Can't Wait For The Next One To Wrap Things Up. Also Hope To See The Reveal Of The Mummified Insect Demon Since It Will Appear Next Issue.
For Miles Morales:Spider-Man:
For A While Now When Miles Was On A Leash From Bendis Since He Created Him, His Life Became Stale Once He Came To The 616 Universe. I Mean, His Story Under Bendis Was Really Uninteresting And The Last Couple Of Issues Were A Real Cluster. Like He Didn't Really Care. I Didn't Like Some Of The Things He Put Out Like His Father Being Involed With S.H.I.E.L.D. Instead Of Just Being A Normal Cop. His Involvement With S.H.I.E.L.D., Him Beating Blackheart Singlehandedly In The Most BS Way, Not Enough Of Him And Peter Together. His Counterpart Was Alright. Pretty Interesting. But, Now He's In Another World. And Since He Got Here, It Seems That They Can't Just Figure Out If Miles' Life Has Been Altered To The 616 Or Just Him Remebering All The Events Of His Life In The Ultimate Universe And Is Just Stuck Here. But, Now, With Bendis Gone. We Finally Have Ourselves A New Writer. One Who Could Do The Character Justice And Put Him In The Ranks And Success He Deserves. And That Is Saladin Ahmed. I'll Admit, I Was A Little Nervous when He Was Announced. I Mean, I Really Love His Black Bolt Series. But, His Other Stuff Like His Quicksilver And Exiles Became Much Weaker Than His Black Bolt And ASM Annual. Plus, As Some Of Us Here Knows, He Has A Personal Agenda. But, I Was Still Gonna Give Him A Chance And See What he Does. Afterall, He Does Have A Job Of Handling Such An Important Character. So, Let's Hope To See What He Does. And He Did A Pretty Solid Entry.
Okay, We See Miles Explaing To Us About His Life In The 616 Universe And His Time Facing Off Against The Inheritors During Spider-Geddon. Here, We Have Miles All Grown Up As A 17 Year Old(Or 18 Year Old) Hanging Out With His Friendfs Ganke And Judge. We Have Ganke Grown Up To Being Bigger But Hairy And More Focused On His Stuff Like Any Geek/Nerd Would Do. We Also Have Miles Being On A Date With Barbara. We Have Him Hanging Around With Her Cousin Ed. We See Him With His Mother While His Father Is Busy. We Also See Him Doing Superhero Stuff Like Saving Lives And Stopping Robberies. We Also See Him Encounter The Rhino With Their Fight As They Encounter Some New Group Of Villains Revealing Them To Be Captors Of Some Ethnic Or Immigrant Kids. And Rhino's Niece Might Be One Of Them Since Rhino Was A Russian Immigrant. So, This Was A Pretty Solid Issue. Here We Have Miles In His Day To Day Normal Life As A Young Half Black Half Latino Kid From Brooklyn Going To School, Hanging Out With His Friends, Doing Normal Teen Stuff And Meeting A Girl And Doing His Time As A Superhero. It Was Pretty Nice To See Some Touch On Some Ethnic Related Stuff Since They Try To Put Emphasis On That. Despite Ahmed Being One Of Those Writers With An Agenda, The Stuff With Immigration Was Nicely Well Handled Like How Miles' Mom Relates To Her Son Being In Danger. Pretty Normal For A Parent To React To That. We Also Found Out That Barabara's Cousin Ed Had His Father Deported And Is Trying To Get Back Home. Though, At The End, Those Group Of Villains Revealing To Be Mindcontrolled Kidnapped Ethnic Children And People Really Has Me Irked. WithThe Reveal And How Ahmed Is, I'm Really Concerned With How Much The Series Will Take. Hopefully Not Hard Enough. The Art by Javier Garron Was Really Nice To See. He Really Does Some Good Work On The Action Scenes And Fluidity. Really Like His Depictions Of Some Characters. REALLY Love His Depiction Of The Rhino. I Always Thought He'd Be Great On Spidey. He Was Great On Miles. But, I Think It's Pretty Weak Here. Hope He Tries To Give His All. All and All, Pretty Solid Entry. Pretty Solid First Issue. Hope It Turns Out Well Later On.
