That tone can also be felt in the art from Juann Cabal. He matches the tone of the art to the bright, vibrant daylight action this series is doing. You get to admire the character and background details throughout the issue and the story is enhanced with some fun visuals. Read Full Review

This issue is where things really pick up and we're left wanting more as Peter may be down but not out. Read Full Review

Overall Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man was an improved effort over the debut issues, with Tom Taylor quickly getting the hang of the voice of his cast, and moving the pacing of the story along at a perfect pace. Most of the humor in this title also hits the mark adding some nice surprises to an already enjoyable story. FNSM is off to a good start, avoiding some common pitfalls some of these other recently rebooted series have gone through in the process, resulting in everything here making me look forward to issue three.

Friendly Neighborhood is building a niche separate from the main Spider-Man series, but it might need more than solid characterization and a moderately interesting story to keep readers interested. Read Full Review

There are many mysteries wrapped in Marvel's latest Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man issue, from what will happen to the Peter Parker's neighbor, to how a his elderly neighbor just seems to know too much. However, one unsolved mystery that fans may have overlooked concerns two orange (mutant) children introduced in Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #1. Read Full Review

While this series is less explosive than most Spider-Man titles, Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has a charm and stylishness that you shouldn't miss. Read Full Review

When I contrast the two issues we've got so far, I can only hope for a better balance in the future. #1 was all friendly, all neighbourhood. #2 is all Spider-Man, and it suffers a little for that. This is a strong, above-average Spider-Man story. But it offers up far less of the distinctive, home-cooked feel that made the last issue special. Read Full Review

This book is great fun. Tom Taylor gets these characters and the dialogue is incredible. The art also seemed better this time, probably because Spider-Man was the focus of the issue.

Even better than the first issue. Taylor is churning a good one here and i like what Cabal and Woodard are doing on art a lot!

There is a ton of humor and heart in this series. In my opinion Taylor and Cabal should be on the flagship Amazing Spiderman book.

This is even better than the first issue. So much fun reading this, very well-written and the artwork really suits the tone of the book.

I just had a very nice time reading this and I’m not sorry about it. People being mean to Boomerang is my aesthetic.

Spidey, ever the fount of good ideas, calls in Johnny Storm as a babysitter while he gets deeper into the mystery of the orange kids. This issue leans more toward straightforward super-heroics than the first, but there are some solid threads tying back to the friendly neighborhood. The art's very clean, and the script delivers a perfectly-sized portion of well-done Spidey humor.

Tom Taylor writes a good spidey and cabal draws a hell of a good book. While nothing groundbreaking, its highly entertaining.

THE GOOD: -What happened here?! Oh, I think I figured it out. Tom Taylor must have written last issue's back up story, planning for it to be the main comic, and what was the main issue last time was supposed to be the backup. That's definitely it. I definitely didn't misjudge the quality of this series. Not at all. -The art was a vast improvement. While I don't like the way Mr. Cabal draws the Human Torch, his Spidey is growing on me. -Where was this humor last issue? I think I must have been in a bad mood when I read the last one. I guess I was happy when I read this one. -I thought the kids would be stupid. Instead, they were really interesting. -That splash page was pretty awesome. If you read the issue, you know what I'm talking about. -The Rumor looks to be a weird but potentially interesting character. We'll have to wait until next issue. THE BAD: -The story still doesn't interest me as much. Aspects of it do, but not as a whole. There are a few too many subplots if you ask me. -I wasn't a fan of the Detective. She didn't interest me. -I still have to admit to some corny dialogue and humor that doesn't land. I'm more concerned about the latter, but that's kind of canceled out by the great humor. Still, they could work on making the jokes payoff a bit more often. I don't really care about the second one, because it's a comic, there's supposed to be corny dialogue. None of it was cringe-y or anything. So I won't take points off for it, just acknowledge it. more

I like the art but I found the writing to be a bit weaker than the first issue, which was pretty great.
