Silk #19

A highly flawed yet satisfying series finale. Read Full Review

Although Silk #19 has a rather shaky start, it is a tender end to this series. Robbie Thompson and Tana Ford come together to create a final issue that demonstrates Cindy Moon's strength as well as the importance of her family in her life. The heartwarming moments balance out the rougher ones while also leaving an opening for another future solo series for this Spider-Woman. Read Full Review

The finale of Silk has some really nice moments but ultimately the entire issue feels rushed. Perhaps the creative team wasn't told in advance that this series would be coming to a close. The ending feels a bit poor but ultimately very satisfying. The art is great and the panels with the fight scenes are well done. However, it certainly feels like this series should have ended a while ago but I guess it's better than nothing. Read Full Review

Silk grew into one of my favourite characters, and I loved how Tana Ford got better and better with each issue. This finale you can tell was probably an idea for an entire arc but since they knew it was ending they crammed into one issue. The villain would've been more impactful if we had more reference for her. But to echo that other user's comment "fuck Marvel for cancelling this book." They better start a new volume within a year.

I fucking hate Marvel for canceling this book. This was the one book of the lighter/sillier side that I could actually tolerate. Even with the crappy art. I cared about the character. Now she's gone. Fuck Marvel.

Silk races through a confrontation with Fang that could/should have been a lengthy story arc. Then it's on to the happily ever after. Fang was supposed to be Silk's long-term nemesis, and it feels like a waste to dispatch her in 12 pages before pivoting to self-congratulation. Tana Ford's art offers no shortage of cringe-worthy moments. Action has always been her Kryptonite, but here she even flubs the happy emotional moments in the conclusion. Even if this issue had a better artist, it would take a lot of preexisting love for the character to say this was anywhere close to a satisfying ending. Satisfying or not, it feels very permanent; I'm afraid it'll be a long time before anybody puts Cindy Moon in the protagonist slot again.

Horrible ending. This may be the most rushed comic issue ever. Fang comes out of no where with no explanation with no idea who Fang is and we’re just supposed to assume Fang was behind everything and except it.
