    Venom #28 stumbles by sidelining the character of Natasha Romanoff and downplaying the elements of espionage that made this story arc captivating initially. Read Full Review

    Unfortunately, this is a comic book that has gone from being a galaxy-brained wild time to run of the mill and redundant. Read Full Review

    A great wrap-up to a solid story arc. Gronbekk and Ohta stuck the landing. They conclued the NoName arc, and planted a few seeds for future conflicts. The art was very good, characters looked great, and the action flowed smoothly from panel to panel. Ohta does a great job convey the horror and alien nature of the symbiots. Frank D'Armata's colors were excellent, enhancing the dark tone of the story without mireing it in heavy blacks. The story moves quickly, the dialogue was, largely, very good (none of this "You're weak against stretch guys! %$#&). Gronbekk uses narration boxes to good effect to communicate needed information, without littering the page, Claremont style. The charaterization of Dylan, and Bren are very good. The Wido more

    A fairly solid and entertaining book, but I'm so ready to get back to Al Ewing & CAFU on this book. Otha's art here isn't bad by any means and it's actually one of the stronger points of this. As for Grønbekk, this and the previous two issues weren't my favorite. It's not a bad book at all, but it's disappointing to have this story instead of the amazing stuff we've been getting whenever Ewing is writing this. I can't wait to see what he's cooking up with the next issue.

    The story chugs to a rational conclusion, but I don't find it to be a particularly satisfying one. It features excellent art (particularly for a collaboration), and this issue's script is probably the strongest of the whole arc. My main complaints are probably that the climax feels rushed and that symbiote-ified Black Widow felt underutilized. In my opinion, this is *almost* a good comic, but not quite.

    Can't wait to have Ewing back next issue. This arc just felt so generic and uninspired.
