Spider-Man Noir #1

This is a really solid first issue that sets the stage beautifully. Having Peter Parker solve a case in which his alter ego, Spider-Man, is implicated as the killer is a brilliant conundrum that immediately raises the stakes. What I enjoyed most, however, is the dialogue. Right from the opening segment, we get the wisecracking Spider-Man fans know and love. I especially liked the scene where he tries to talk the thugs out of using guns, resulting instead in a fistfight. Read Full Review

Spider-Man Noir #1 will not be the book every fan wanted for this cult-classic character, but it is still a ride in of itself, the creative team doing what they do best in a way that harmonizes with one another strengths. Read Full Review

Spider-Man Noir #1 looks like rainy-day perfection and throws punches with vintage flair, but the script cant decide if its after Oscar Wilde or Raymond Chandler. The result? A detective story where the action dazzles, the mood is top-notch, but the protagonists quirkiness and shoehorned Nazi lecture rob it of true noir grit. Next time, heres hoping Spider-Man Noir broods, not jokes, and that villains are organic parts of the mystery rather than propaganda on bat-wings. Read Full Review
