Peter visits his old friend Eddie Brock from when they were kids to talk about their parents who worked together...what Peter finds is something far darker.

I remember when I was younger I didn't love this arc because I felt the black suit was wrapped up soooo quick. But reading it now, I actually liked the new take. Peter linking Eddie Brock to childhood is a neat idea. I also really enjoyed the parents stuff and felt it was a great idea to show one of the major reasons Peter is so smart. I also loved all the stuff with Peter and MJ and it felt so real after a breakup.

The thing this series does really well is combined great characterization with fun action and fun plots. Bendis obviously loved Spider-man growing up and got to tell his vision and it is one of the best Spider-man runs ever if not THE best.

This is great! A 4.5 out of 5.
