Comic Book Review: Ultimate Spider-Man
The Revolution always enjoys the latest issue of Ultimate Spider-Man. Bendis is tacos in the bank on this title. Ultimate Spider-Man #111 was Mark Bagley’s final issue. The fact that Bendis and Bagley cranked out a run of 111 issues together is absolutely mind blowing. You just don’t see that in the modern age of comic books. Anyway, I’m sure that Ultimate Spider-Man #112 will be a good read. Let’s do this review.

Comic Book Review: New Avengers #41: Secret Invasion
Original at Rokk's Comic Book Revolution
• Mon, Jun 2
By noreply@blogger.com (Rokk Krinn) Spider-Man mentions that Captain America said that he thought there was some rebellious faction in SHILED trying to kill the Avengers. Evidently, Captain America felt there was something rotten going on with SHIELD. Spider-Man then says that the Skrulls were mining vibranium here and then tried to kill the Avengers here. The ending to New Avengers #41 was a total miss for me. That is because I find the plotline involving the 1970’s Captain America to be completely lacking in drama or intrigue. We know that the 1970’s Captain America is a Skrull. We have seen Steve’s dead body over on Captain America after he was killed by Sharon Carter. I find this 1970’s Captain America plotline a bit of a waste of time. [read the full post]

Spider-Man starts web-slinging across Manhattan looking for the mugger wearing a Spider-Man mask. If you had the hankering to read about the down on his luck teenage Peter Parker who is living the single life then you could pick up an issue of Ultimate Spider-Man. If you were in the mood to read about the married adult Peter with a more stable grasp on his life then you could snag an issue of Amazing Spider-Man. Now, your choice is a loser single Peter in his twenties or loser single Peter in his teen years. [read the full post]

That maybe they should let her go. Peter counters that he would agree with MJ if Aunt May died from old age. But, she didn’t. Aunt May died taking a bullet meant for Peter. That he can’t live with that guilt. Peter then wakes up in his old bed in Aunt May’s house. Aunt May is downstairs making breakfast. Peter runs downstairs complaining that he is late. Peter gives Aunt May a kiss and grabs some food and says that he has to run off in order to make the surprise party in time to yell “Surprise!” Peter then pedals off on his bicycle.

Peter manages to get his hands on the blood test report and is upset. Evidently, Aunt May has built up an immunity to his spider-blood and that the transfusion he conducted isn’t going to do anything for Aunt May. Peter leaves the hospital thinking about the nine felony counts that he has just committed in the past hour. And that these felonies were committed by Peter Parker and not Spider-Man. That Peter’s fingerprints are all over everything. That Peter has become everything that he set out to fight. A criminal. [read the full post]
