Comic Vine - Mat 'Inferiorego' Elfring
Aug 01, 2012As I've said before, this is a book you should pick up. It's a new take on an old favorite. This is a great issue, and as always, the writing and art are top notch. This book has a great cliffhanger, and I can't wait to continue reading The Spider next month. Read Full Review

Chuck's Comic Of The Day - Chuck
Aug 07, 2012Not many creative teams are able to capture the hard-edged vibe of those pulp stories from the '30s, but you'll find it here. The stories are set in the modern day, but they're true to their source. Read Full Review

Unleash The Fanboy - Harrison Rawdin
Aug 01, 2012The Spider #4 is a very good comic book that doesn't offer anything ground breaking, but it's still more than worth your time. Recommended. Read Full Review

Major Spoilers - Stephen Schleicher
Aug 05, 2012I've liked The Spider to this point, but the out of character humor really threw me this time out. On the other hand, Mr. Worley's art really jumps off the digital page and blew me away. The story does move the plot forward, and the art is pleasing to the eyes, so I'm giving this issue a Tentative Buy. Had this issue not fallen to the mid-arc doldrums, it might have flowed a bit better. Still, The Spider #4 is entertaining enough to earn 3.5 out of 5 Stars. Read Full Review

Crave Online - Andy Hunsaker
Aug 06, 2012I have enjoyed much of Liss' work before, and I still really want to like this series, but The Spider #4 went off the rails and resorted to clichés and uninspired dialog choices, and it's very disappointing. Read Full Review
