The real Spider-Man title to read. This book never loses it's luster. Just impressive month after month.
Amazing issue, major turning points in the story. I have no idea where this goes next.
My jaw dropped
Plot
Richard Parker, Peter's son, befriends Felicia, the new Black Cat. They are both almost the same age. Felicia explains to him why she is after Spider-Man. Richard understands her and they both begin to form a friendship.
Peter and Harry escape from Kraven's attacks and with the help of Mole Man they manage to reach the cavern that will take them to the surface. Peter is worried about MJ and his children, but Harry activated a protocol created by Otto Octavius that has Gwen protected in a secret place.
Peter confronts Kraven and manages to defeat him using a trap from Harry. He almost beats him to death, but Kraven shoots them both and leaves Harry seriously injured. Peter knocks him out and Mysterio exp more
I think this is probably the greatest issue of USM so far.
I'm 100% here for the Richard and black cat pairing they are just adorable together. It speaks highly of Jonathan Hickman's understanding of how to handle a good story.
This was really good. If I was nitpicking, I’d rate it lower because the dialogue between the teens was so cringy. No 15 and 16 year olds say “15 and a half” or “16 and a half”. It took me out of the story and all I could think was Hickman is out of touch. But in the end, it was really good. I don’t like the big think near the end, but I understand how it adds tension.
One of the best issues in this series. The setting is simply amazing, the read is fantastic and the story keeps me wanting for more
Phenomenal issue. Hickman really dials the intrigue up as we see multiple members of the Sinister Six play their hands. Really love the little developments with Richard and Felicia. I'm also not convinced Harry is dead either, as you never can be too sure with Mysterio lingering around in the background.
Ultimate Spider-Man completely rocks hard. I love the art and how the plot is moving. I also think the relationship between Peter's kid and Black Cat is adorable
