Amazing Spider-Man #11

Ottley's art is great in this issue. I like the dramatic renderings of Jonah at the height of his bluster and the more reserved art of Peter spending time with Robbie. The contrast works well with the tone of the story. Read Full Review

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #11 succeeds all around in telling a humorous story and reintegrating J. Jonah Jameson into AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. Read Full Review

A fun, hilarious, and somewhat touching holiday issue for the web-head that doesn't take itself too seriously, in a good way Read Full Review

Heavy on media commentary, old supporting cast members, and solid laughs, Amazing Spider-Man #11 shifts the tone from recent issues and continues to seed plot points for the team to develop moving forward. Despite the always-tricky double-shipping schedule, this comic is rock solid. Read Full Review

Amazing Spider-Man #11 kicks off an arc that promises to be all about the Jameson. Plenty of attention to both deep continuity and recent developments gives his characterization a lot of nuances here. This is a very engaging first chapter thanks to strong art and a fast, intriguing plot, too. As ever, ASM delivers thorough satisfaction and a mighty hook compelling you to read on. Read Full Review

This is probably the most no-frills issue of Amazing Spider-Man written by Spencer. There's no new revelations or status quo changes, just a focus on one of Spider-Man's oldest relationships that's totally different, but somehow still the same. Read Full Review

A good issue that begins to revisit and possibly even change Jameson and Peter Parker's only recent friendship. Read Full Review

With a character-driven story that gets to the heart of the Spidey/J. Jonah Jameson dynamic, Nick Spencer is definitely onto something - he just needs to beef up his plots a little more. There's nothing wrong with a lighter touch, storytelling-wise, but a truly great comic should feel like a meal, rather than a snack. This issue is fun, but the plot is too fluffy to be anything more than the comic equivalent of a popcorn flick. Read Full Review

Art by Ryan Ottley has grown on me and the colors by Laura Martin are top notch. Laura adds some Winter magic to the issue making the city feel alive, rather than just a still backdrop. Read Full Review

An amazing voice for Jolly Jonah. Spencer has some fun with the Enforcers too and I've always had a soft spot for that trio!

This issue was really great. The dynamic between Spider-Man and J. Jonah Jameson has always been a source of entertainment and a cornerstone of Spider-Man comics and this issue finally brings Jameson back into the cast after he was really underused in the later years of Slott's ASM. It also makes great use of the new status quo set up in Spectacular, which was basically ignored by Slott until the very end. This issue also dives deep into continuity, which is one of the best things about basically anything Spencer writes. We've seen plenty of Jonah trying to make up for his years and years of slandering Spider-Man but now he's gotta make up for all the times he actually put Spider-Man in harm's way, with Scorpion and the Spider-Slayers being his most overt attempts. more

Though it is a slow build up to a larger payoff, this issue is lots of fun and entertainment. Spencer did a really good job portraying Spider-Man and Jonah Jameson and their duo in this issue. The, J. Jonah Jameson, content is fun, sticking to his true self, as always. The pencil from, Rathburn, really brought out the writing in the panels. I will say, this art is better than Romos.

Really enjoy this run so far. The comedy is right up my alley as well as the characterization of both Jameson and Spidey. Speaking of, I love how this issue expands upon the status quo of their relationship together that started in Zdarksy's Spectacular Spider-Man run. It's great to have a writer like Spencer who is able to play of the current continuity with a character so well. I know some people are iffy on Ottley's art but I love it so far. This continues to be the first book I read every week which hasn't been the case for Spider-Man in a long time.

I really enjoyed this! Poor Spidey, nobody is ever going to believe that he wasn’t on team Kingpin.

At this point, Spencer has developed a great chemistry between Spidey and his support characters, art is great.

Ottley is back, and the book is still going as strong as ever. No big stakes or anything, just casual Spidey. And it does wonders.

A few feints towards a silly Spidey Christmas are spoiled by Jameson playing the insufferable Grinch. Spidey's not at all wrong when he says J-Cubed makes everything about himself, and that looks to be the way subsequent issues are going to develop. This is a fun read, with notably gorgeous visuals. Although the ratio of straight plot development to comic relief digressions is skewed toward the latter - and the divide between the two is extreme - the overall level of quality and enjoyability is uniformly high.

Enjoy the art work and dialogue but the story really isn’t doing much for me. We are getting a little bit of Jonah recently and getting tired of him. He’s getting to be boring how he’s causing the battles for Spider-Man.

I appreciate The Enforcers as much as the next guy--but doesn't it feel like Spencer is just trying to get through a checklist of slightly obscure Spidey villains regardless of their actual impact on his stories? In terms of plot--it's not very tense. The story is a fluffy, light Christmas affair that would be better suited for an annual or Christmas special.
