I thought this was fine? Like, a bit confusing on the whole setup for the Goblin storyline, but I'm also a bit excited for it. However, Chasm stuff felt random and didn't seem to go anywhere that much.
Maybe I just wish this was longer? And we saw Peter and Ben actually interacting without masks? The same kind of writing we had for Peter in #45-46?
Peter Parker vs. Ben Reilly! Spider-Man finally gets a rematch! Meanwhile, what is going on with Norman Osborn?! Only two issues left until AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #50!

Amazing stuff here. This is just the issue USM needed, more slower one that focuses on characters and their relationships. I loved every page and I was hooked on the dialogue.
And Messina as a guest artist works really well here. I wouldn't mind seeing more of him once in a while.
The only problem I have is the cover. It's a bit misleading, and since I desperately wanna see B more

It's fine, but continues to be a messy series. I just wish it was more focused and script was more tight.

Surprising anyone who knows Peter Parker (but probably not those who know Miles Morales), the Spider-Men have been keeping up their weekly meetup at the Coffee Bean! Sadly, that hasn't given them any insight into the machinations of the Jackal!!! And what do all these mysterious interludes add up to?

This was a fairly strong milestone issue, in my opinion. As usual, I’m not a huge fan of the art changing mid-way (multiple times in this issue) without any explanation/reasoning for it, though just about every artist did a nice job here. Aside from that, I had a good amount of fun reading this, particularly whenever Taskmaster. I also thought this ended on a really intense note, which has me remore

One of the best things about this title is the character development. No one has a throwaway role in this book and it's all the richer for it. Who the hell ever thought we would care about Tigra again. I do feel they are screwing us on the price and I have personally dropped all big two $4.99 books except this one. That's how good I think it is.

When I opened up this issue, I was incredibly excited to see that Soldier was getting an issue focused on him. Now, after reading, I'm glad to say it didn't disappoint. MacKay continues to do a great job with Marc's supporting cast in this series, and I'm sure that will remain true when the next issue is, presumably, centered around Hunter's Moon. Back to this, however, I really liked the way MacKmore

MacKay and Cappuccio continue to be a fantastic duo. Cappuccio's art is absolutely gorgeous, which is already evident on the very first page of this issue. As for MacKay, he did a great job of giving us a compelling, character-driven story with some good action as well throughout. That line from Tigra about why Marc didn't return hit me like a truck. I'm really hoping MacKay continues this trend omore

I weirdly wasn't super into this one. The Lex/Joker story really didn't do anything for me because it didn't really mean anything. It felt like something that would fit into an annual which oddly enough I had criticized because those stories felt completely separate from the main arcs but Lex and Joker at least are related in mirroring the heroes and would fit in the annual fine. Taking that storymore

It's good, but not the oversized issue I hoped it would be and more of a annual that teases what is to come. Everything we get is solid (as always from Waid), but a bit of disappointing.

this issue wasnt bad. But it was just mid, boring, and forgettable. I wished Ultimate Spider-Man by Jonathan Hickman was here. None of these stories were interesting. Ben Reilly is a jerk, why is Kaine having degeneration again, why bring in TVA from Loki to a Spider-Gwen story.
overall, I just felt nothing for this. The soliictions were again lying to us.

This is a very weird anthology. It honestly shows me a Spider-Office that doesn't really know what it wants. The entire thing is an exercise in synergy, with Madame Web haphazardly being the impetus for the anthology. It gives me the same vibes as when Black Adam got a full page splash in Dark Crisis along with an extended sequence showing just how great and heroic he was, because he and his moviemore
