I'm enjoying this book a lot more than I thought I would. Big up Joe Kelly! Pepe Larraz is aa big portion of that enjoyment because he delivered absolutely gorgeous art. Kudos to Marte Gracia on colors!

Is this really as bad as people are saying?
Or perhaps, the character is so popular that it is literally impossible to please everyone?

For the mean time, I'm enjoying this. It's not DC Absolute or Ultimate Spider-Man level but I don't feel it's bad as it's being made out to be.

I feel like people's reaction to everything these days is default negativity and expectatio ns of perfection.

I cannot stress enough that the art in this arc is phenomenal. There are some incredibly well composed pages in this issue that blow me away. The writing is solid too. The plot is coming together, I like how this all feels genuinely planned out unlike a lot of arcs under Lowe's tenure. There were subtle hints towards the reveal in this issue about what exactly was the cause of Rhino's poisoning in the previous issues, and if you picked up on them, it's so satisfying to have it confirmed.more

The art is perfect as usual. Storywise, I'm starting to see a direction, which is a huge improvement.

I never read Deadpool and spodey so this is my first exposure to itsy bitsy and I quite like her as a villain. Sort of like a spider-harley Quinn type. A little psycho, a lil freaky. This redesign of hers is pretty awesome. Maybe she can get an action figure now.

Solid issue, the action scenes are really good. Pepe larraz art is hitting and exceeding every expectation. Sometimes he draw s panels in sideways or upside down do you can turn the book and see from Peter's perspective. Its very cool.

Gotta say I never expected Norman being "good" for so long and their dynamic has reached a point where I enjoy seeing them talk. They've always had similarities eith their scientific minds so it's refreshing to have them tackle a problem together.

Kinda more interested in this stuff than whatever hellgate is but im open to see what Kelly comes up with. This run is 3/3 for me so far.

This story just works really well! I didn't care much for Itsy Bitsy back in Kelly's Deadpool/Spidey book but I'm glad he turned her mad dialogue down, gave her a better costume and she became a better character for it. Meanwhile Pepe Larraz is absolutely phenomenal!

This is a fun issue with. Lot of punch. The art is simply sublime and it teasing some good old fisticuffs to come soon.

The opening narrative is a little hard to follow but I read the description of Peter's dream as being a cool metaphor for his life as Spider-Man and his struggles. We'll see where it goes.

This is what we call a great issue two. I have zero complaints. Art is amazing, plot moves ahead while everything feels natural.

I am still a bit wary of this run because of the editorial. But I am getting excited what we see next.

Keep on cooking Kelly!

Yeah, I'm hooked. Joe Kelly manages to strike a tone for this book that is refreshing and fun, and really has a solid voice for all of these characters. The story isn't a gimmick, nor is it so far removed from Spider-Man. The art is phenomenal and really reiterates that fresh feeling. The stark contrast between this and 8 Deaths is very perplexing, but I'm not going to complain. I'm genuinely exci ted for issue 3, I can't wait.more

Great second issue which puts you right in the driver seat trying to understand what's happening along with Peter. Kelly has a good hold on all the strings and it's wonderful having Pepe Larraz illustrating with this beautiful art that's energetic and dynamic when it needs to be and still and striking when it needs to be.

Great start! Kelly does well here and reminds me of the Deadpool/Spider-Man run he did years ago. I hope this ends better that that. Packed with many things and angles that it feels like a proper relaunch than a continuation. As for the art, the obvious thing is Pepe Larraz should do a few hundred issues before he can leave as a minimum. Gracia coloring Larraz is always a treat! They just work wel l together!more

Absolutely great! Deniz Camp and Javier Rodriguez created something here worth visiting again when assembled in hardcover.

Fantastic work! Camp's take on crime and the age old question/theory of heat induced aggression as to why the hottest days can be some of the worst crime wise is intriguing. Camp pumps and pumps that balloon until the explosions (literally Metaphor = literal) happen at the end. Rodriguez keeps topping himself with every issue and drops some of the best art I've seen him do ever. The colors are way too good and everything on the page is there for a reason. Nothing wasted!more

I don't remember a book blending story/narrative and art this good at least not recently.

Impressive issue. Camp lands a lot here and Rodriguez does some serious heavy lifting with his art to deliver one of the best expressive art I've seen in a long time.

Just smooth and sucks you in. Camp and Rodriguez are great!
