Spider-Man #10

While striving be our brothers (and sisters) keepers, Spider-Man #10 reminds us that we must also care for ourselves. Read Full Review

Spider-Man #10 continues to show Slott's expert take on Spider-Man from the supporting characters, Spider-Man as a character, and new elements too, like Spider-Boy. From moments like Aunt May barging in on Norman to new elements like Spider-Boy, there's a lot to love in this final issue of the story arc. Read Full Review

Bagley delivers some great art in the issue. The visual style is thrilling, detailed and fun to look at. Read Full Review

IfSpider-Man #1ohad been focused more on telling a tense story in the moment rather than working to squeeze Marvel's latest obtuse and lazy legacy rebranding, it could have been a relatively strong Spidey story. Instead what you'll read here is something fun but wasteful. Read Full Review

Spider-Man's "Maxed Out" storyline has felt like classic Spider-Man through and through, and while that feeling remains in Spider-Man #10, surprisingly those aren't the elements that made the biggest impression in the conclusion. Read Full Review

Spider-Man #10 brings the brand new character, Spider-Boy, to the forefront while Spider-Man fights with his Spidey-Sense on the fritz. The action is typically good for a Spider-Man comic, the art is fine, and the resolution makes sense, but if you're only in it to get to know Spider-Boy, you'll get plenty of insight, both good and bad.

Concluding the ‘Maxed Out’ story arc, SPIDER-MAN #10 hits shelves this week from Dan Slott, with Christos Gage, and art by Mark Bagley, with John Dell & Andrew Hennessy. The issue, much like the three-issue arc, was heavy on entertainment, nostalgia, and visual delight, even if it was low in stakes. We also get more Spider-Boy, which all just feels like a giant tease (which makes sense given the character wasn’t created with his own series in mind!) until we can see him star in his own series later this year. The issue picks up with Spider-Man and Electro locked in battle, with Spider-Boy joining the fight and helping to save the day. Peter’s spider-sense continues to cause problems and Norman deals with his own frustrations for his part in the process. After initially being the darling of comic book social media, I’ve started to see some pushback against Spider-Boy for taking over much of the focus for this series but I’m still a big fan. We’re starting to get breadcrumbs and his feelings of loneliness & despair make him an instantly sympathetic character. For me, he’s still aiding in Peter’s own character portrayal in this series — highlighting Peter’s unflinching willingness to help out the little guy. Slott and Gage continue to show why they’ve become Spider-Man staples and Bagley’s artwork is impeccable from start to finish. His attention to detail in even the most minuscule background visual is truly a sight to behold. The slight design & coloring contrast of Spider-Boy compared to Spider-Man & Electro is a smart way to indicate the bridge to a new character. Rating: 7/10 more

It's not bad, but that in no way makes it good or memorable. The art takes a slight up-tick; in my opinion, the quality of the writing heads the other way.

This issue is fine. It's not bad, but its better and more tolerable than Zeb Wells run. Spider Boy is weird, he reminds me of Miguel O Hara with his powers. Maybe Dan Slott will make me eat my words. We will see
