    Amazing Spider-Man #35 continues to show Green Goblin is on a slow climb back into Norman's heart and mind. The story wraps up too conveniently, but you can't say the action doesn't look good while juggling so many conflicts. Read Full Review

    The early potential of this story hits a snag as the ill-defined notion of Norman Osborn's sins (which sent Spencer's run into a tailspin at its conclusion) comes back to haunt the story. Read Full Review

    Amazing Spider-Man #35 brings the third-best copy of "Kraven's Last Hunt" to a close with a decent fight, and everyone returns to their status quo. This arc has no message, neither the characters nor the world changed, and the net effect is a mediocre time filler. Read Full Review

    I've loved the darker tone of Zeb Wells and Patrick Gleason's current arc and ASM #35 sees Peter's possession by Norman's demons come to an end. Compared to the other issues in this arc, the tension here fell flat with major plot points being rushed. The story could have used another issue or two to give character decisions, and especially the major cliffhanger, more room to breathe on their own. Even with these smaller issues, this has been a successful soft reset of a title which had been floundering for the past few months and I'm looking forward to seeing what's next for Peter Park for the first time in awhile.

    I thought it was solid. Could have used another issue in the arc to really explore more of this dynamic, but it was enjoyable.

    I wasn't as into this as the previous three issues, but I still enjoyed this. Peter confronting MJ and Paul was kind of funny to me, given the real-life hate some "fans" have towards Paul. However, I did enjoy that section of the book, as well as his fight with Kraven. As for Norman, I know it's probably too much to ask from Marvel to keep him "good," but I really hope he doesn't delve back into the Green Goblin persona. At least not for a while, as I've really enjoyed him since his sins were removed. It was a really good tease on the final page, though.

    I'm not as down on this as some people seem to be. While I do think that the Spider Who Gobs was maybe a little too short lived, the arc only lasting essentially 4 issues and a few pages from issue 31, I could have and would have been happy to get more. My only real disappointment with it is the inevitable fact that Norman would never get to stay redeemed and work through his pain with a new bond in Peter. That story is coming to a close. Despite it being open ended at least in regards to Norman it really feels like the true end to an arc. Kraven and Queen Goblin are gone, the sins are 'contained'. All we have now is Gang War.

    My biggest disappointment with this issue is that Spider-Man didn't slap MJ and say "I just hit the jackpot".

    There it is. A bit too much plot twisting for something you can see coming 20 issues ago and the journey was not enjoyable either. Also the whole Kraven/Son Clones nonsense that Spencer did was the dumbest thing next to the Kindred reveal. ASM is being weighed down by too many dumb decisions like how many times will Flecia and MJ date and break up with Peter. This endless cycle is not for old readers. At least I have Hickman doing some inetersting things over at Ultimate ASM. Gleason's art is great as always!

    Amazing Spider-Man #35 is an action-packed issue with a lot crammed into it. After a very brief set-up for the upcoming Gang War story arc, we finally get the showdown between Spider-Man, Kraven, Queen Goblin, MJ, Paul and Norman. It will satisfy some readers, but leave others feeling cheated and disappointed. Patrick Gleason's art is not as good as it can be, no doubt due to the ridiculous bi-weekly publishing schedule. Even more disappointing is the fact that ASM is now a $4.99 comic book.

    My complaint is with the cynical hyperbolic hype the editors foist upon the readers. Like this one that "sets up the next 24 issues. Do.Not.Miss.It." Or the recent one that was supposed to be the biggest tragedy in 50 years" - and Ms. Marvel died for a month. Editors act like they're on your side, but - spoiler alert - they ain't.

    I was enjoying actually this arc, but this one did not stick the landing for me. I feel like they could've done a lot more with this but instead it just abruptly ended. Art killed it the whole way through which is the bulk of my score on this one. Side note, Lowe had a response to a fan in the fan mail that was extremely tone deaf, and in my opinion out of touch. Takes like that are a cause for concern for me if this is the guy overseeing the book.

    Between the flat prose and the disjointed art (polished poses, but no real sense of setting or interaction), I found it difficult to care about this finale half as much as the creators wanted me to.

    Gotta be honest, this was a disappointing conclusion. And kind of a big one. I loved the previous parts and this had good moments in it too, but it wasn't at all what I had hoped it to be. We didn't explore NEARLY enough Peter with Norman's sins. We got small tibits here and there, but for a book called Amazing Spider-Man, this felt like afraid to actually explore Spider-Man. I really like what they have done with Norman, I've said it multiple times, but he is the most interesting he has been in years. And I'm keen to see what he does next. Kraven parts where done well. Previously him being Kraven's son/clone didn't seem to matter and it was nice to see some acknowledgement. Gleason's art was wonderful as always. But the big more

    Wells botched this arc. Belly flop on the ending. Who would have guess? Only anyone with any concept of history or have read any of the previous arcs in his run. Nothing to say really, I should have expected this. Never have any expectation beyond a 5/10 book for Wells and maybe... maybe you could sort of at least not be too sad with this run.
