Plot Electro is sent by the members of the Sinister Six to free Sandman from Ravencroft but he does not have the presence of Spider-man and Jackpot, who with the help of the other inmates stop them. The prisoners do not want to escape thanks to Anna Watson who has taught them the possibility of vindicating themselves and withdrawing from the criminal world. However Flint Marko awakens and takes control of William Baker's body and Sandman escapes. This installment highlights the emotional tension between Peter and MJ, who now share a dynamic as superheroes that somehow makes them more empathetic with each other, there remains a deep love and desire between them. Although Peter tried to move on and forget about MJ and have a relationsh ip with Michelle, he knows that her connection to Tombstone is too much for him, but she actually likes a lot about her. The next installment promises the return of the Sinister Six: Doctor Octopus, Mysterio Kraven, Vulture, Electro and Sandman. Peter's life continues to become tangled as his most loyal enemies join forces. Art Retaining the retro tone of 1990s Spider-man but refreshing it with more details and epic poses, it's mesmerizing art. Carmen is undoubtedly one of the best artists of the moment with an ability to recreate brilliant dynamism. Summary Spider-man and Jackpot face Elektro and Sandman's sanity and Anna Watson's good faith are at stake. more

A good issue, definitely liked the Ravencroft stuff. There could be some more fun stories to tell there but it looks that all we got were those two. Having Anna in there and helping everyone become better people and want to reform back to society is great. Now it's likely gone. And chance of seeing these villains vanished. Much like my interest in seeing MJ and Peter talk about how they're in a weird place. Again. And again. People can just be friends with their former significant others without there being drama or whatever this boring do-nothing recycled dialogue is. That all may sound harsh but I didn't hate the issue whatsoever. Just stop the will they won't they in Peter's relationships. Either have him be single or have him be with so meone. Let him be happy in either circumstance because the morose Peter is a slog at this point. more

Man, I was just talking about how much I was enjoying this book again with the last issue. Don't get me wrong here, this wasn't a bad issue by any means, but it's also definitely a step down from #45, in my opinion. I liked the stuff with Sandman and I'm interested to see where that goes, but I also get the feeling that it's a storyline that won't get revisited for like ten more issues or something. We already have the Chasm & Hallows' Eve two-issue arc after this, followed by a Blood Hunt tie-in issue (for some reason), and then the Green Goblin story starting with #50. Hopefully all of that stuff is good, but I just wish this title would stop introducing things that won't get any follow-up or even be mentioned for a while.

It was fine but a step down from last issue. Story worked fine from Anna's story within Ravencroft along with William Baker AKA Sandman but other than that we are falling into the same repetitive nonsense that's been the bane of Peter and MJ for 15 years now. Either do something else or go back to how things were. Enough with the back and forth BS. Commit to something and stop dragging this soap opera teasing people forever. The Sinister 6 also feel generic at this point. Carmen Carnero is the best thing about this issue and she delivers beautiful art as always!!

This issue is certifiably okay in every respect, but it's also deeply lackluster. Nothing ever gets its due. Wells signaled this thing with the lawyer ages ago with like 2 pages, and then there's 2 pages here*. The interactions with MJ are unsatisfying. The antics of the S6 are generic to the point of parody. The writing here is too patient and not nearly ambitious enough and the result is the opposite of gripping. *It's Ben. Ben is doing this. Obviously. This foreshadowing isn't generating suspense, it's just telling us exactly what's going to happen. That's not foreshadowing; that's telegraphing.

Giving this -.5 for the terrible cover

It’s kind of hilarious to see the meh Electro on the cover and as soon as you open the comic there’s an almost full page of him that looks outstanding. I don’t like JRJRs art but they did him dirty with that. Honestly had a moment of wanting to tear the book apart during the first interaction of Peter and MJ. In later scenes it feels like either Wells is teasing a reunion or just flaming the people who are unhappy with the run. If something is being setup with this crazy Michelle woman, I’m not feeling it.

I thought the same thing about Electro! The art inside was really good!

After a promising first issue, I thought this was quite a disappointing conclusion to this small mini arc. Carmen Carnero is great though.

Another super generic issue of this series. I liked the part with him and Mary Jane talking, and the art is a huge step up from JRJR, but this series is ass. It's just so boring.
