I wasn't sure how I would like it because art like this is usually a turn off for me. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I actually liked the art. The book does what any good alternate universe story should do, feels different enough to make it worth reading while also retaining just enough of the core elements to make fans happy. Will definitely be continuing.

I was very hesitant with this. After disappointments of ASM #1000 and USM as a whole, I didn't really have any interest in this. I was afraid this would be just an edgy retelling of AF #15.
Thankfully, I was very wrong. This is really good and I'm hooked. It feels modern and unique. This is something very different, but also familiar and it doesn't lose the humanity of Peter Parker and

Continues to be the best super hero comic there is. There are very few comics I get genuinely excited to read. This is one of them.
I can't give a higher compliment than that.
Keeping peoples attention span in 2026 is quite an achievement.
I love the direction with Barbara. The showdown with Crane was superb.

Nice! I've been doing the same just with a slightly more comprehensive reading order. I have been a huge fan of the Untold Tales series. Olliffe's art has been really solid. Gives Wieringo vibes. Bubbly and a bit cartoony (which I am a fan of) but still managing somber expressions and deep/dark settings and themes when necessary.

I am also really enjoying Untold Tales. Reading it alongside the same storylines of the 60's is really fun, the contrast isn't drastic, but it is good.

This issue was even better than the previous one. It has an admittedly silly hook, but I'm sure it was exciting to read when this was new. My first time around reading this, I too was enthralled by the idea that Peter was unmasked this early into his career.
Some continuity things to note. In last issue's review, in the pursuit of brevity, I forgot to mention Peter created his first spi

Pretty solid first issue here. It does a lot in one issue in order to set up the status quo going forward, but I also appreciate it for that reason. It's definitely fun and I think this might resonate more with people a little younger than myself, but, again, I had a good time with it. Nicuolo proves to be a really good choice for this book, as well. Interested to see where this book goes.
