I liked this issue. I thought it was an enjoyable read. That's not what I really want to use this review for. I've liked most issues of this run, and even the ones I didn't like, I didn't hate with a passion. Anyone following my reviews can assume I'll probably like this and future issues, barring any craziness.

How is this a separate issue, it's just a DLC to the previous one. #23/#24 should be just one issue.

Spidey team is just prolonging everybody's misery for that TPB. Peter lashing out at his friends again for the sake of the narrative and than an obvious fake-out at the end with MJ's family. I could see it from a mile ahead, the editorial don't have the balls to make such drastic change. How is this a separate issue, it's just a DLC to the previous one. #23/#24 should be just one issue.

My problem with this issue, and this entire run, hasn't been the separation of MJ and Peter, it's the circumstances around it. The status quo prior to this was completely disregarded and we just jumped into these new events. This seems more to me like Marvel wanting to sell books out of shock value and Wells wanting to force Felicia/Peter rather than telling a good story.

...the second story was actually pretty funny. I did like it quite a bit but we're all here to trash the main story!

The lengths Marvel will go to...to...keep PP from MJ? OK, whatever.

But Peter behaving like a complete man baby and needing to punch other superheroes even *after* MJ is safe? This is just frustrating silliness from the editorial team.

I can give two things to this issue. It has nice art and the backup story was cute.
But the main story is poorly paced and jumps around a lot, I couldn't care less about Paul, the kids and that villain whose name I have already forgotten. There is no chemistry between MJ and Paul. Forcing her into a relationship with a plank of wood just to get a reaction from angry fanboys feels very insulti I can give two things to this issue. It has nice art and the backup story was cute.

It was perfect on so many levels.
Xermanico's art was top notch, every transformation by Clayface was slick and detailed, the emotions conveyed in 9-panel grids were very moving creating a stage-play feeling. This felt like a movie storyboard with so many cinematographic shots.
But the story here was hands down the best in all OBDs. It makes you sympathize with Clayface but also recogni It was perfect on so many levels.

What a nothing event. High concept after high concept, no fun at all. The only meaningful things were happening in Gillen's issues, everything else was just wasting time. Time jumps between 10,100,1000 didn't matter at all, they were so abrupt that I felt only detachment from the event.
Gladly this issue is written by Gillen and actually focuses on Sinister and has some interesting stuff in What a nothing event. High concept after high concept, no fun at all.

My god was it terrible. The narration killed all the momentum for the plot. The long introductions of familiar characters, many boring plotlines and that childish beef between Jan and her friend. The main story barely moves but the whole readthrough is so long. By the end I forgot what I've been reading.

Icon vs Hardware right now feels like a solo Hardware story whose actions are very inconsistent. And with the reveal of big bad we won't see much of Icon vs Hardware, so it's a major let down. I do hope Icon gets more pro-active in the story because I enjoyed his series much more that Hardware's.

Rocket and Icon/Hardware portions feel like separate books that don't mash together very well. As the setup for future conflict between the titular heroes this issue feels lacking. Icon is barely in it and he does nothing till the end.

Poison Ivy x Gwyneth Paltrow is not crossover I wanted but the one I needed especially if it's a drug-induced orgy. Consensual tho, at least I hope.

Those middle aged white women events would be so much better if it was just an excuse for a fuck fest, tbh.

Not as good as the previous one. More of a "Let's talk about Gwyneth Paltrow and Ivy's ethics" less action. Still both Wilson and Takara deliver good writing and art.

More of exposition and empty dialogue less Batman and Joker being a DUO equals quite a tedious read.

Probably the best issue so far. The opening section was good and the train riddle was the best. The art and those tired Nightwing butt jokes drag this issue down from being truly great.

This went kinda downhill. This series was at its best when it was just Joker and Batman interacting but as soon as the main antagonist appears the flaws are showing. Overdose of exposition, boring main villain, weak plot and bleak action

A bit heavy on text but overall decent. Rosenberg really likes to write Jason as a batfamily outcast which is trite and trivial, but Stephanie and Jason friendship is nice, so I'm a bit conflicted on him.
Couldn't care less for backups tho at this point they are so one-note, Rosenberg isn't bothered to be creative.

Rosenberg has a nice voice for Joker but this book is tiring.

Nice to see Manhunter for once but this book is STALLING
