james_desantis 's review for:
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, Volume 5
by Brian Michael Bendis
From the insanely highly rated last volume I didn't expect this one to live up to it, and it didn't, but it's still very solid.
Basically Miles is dealing with not wanting to be Spider-Man anymore. It's a hard road to be a hero, and sometimes loss is too much. And while he's trying to live his best life with his dad, things aren't going well mentally. Soon he also meets some new "heroes" that need some guidance and help as well.
The stuff with Gwen speaking to miles and the whole arc of Spider-Woman is really well done. I also really liked the cloak and dagger story even if it felt it needed more time to breath. Bombshell is interesting enough, and Taskmaster is still a POS in this universe, so that means a ton of fun. This doesn't go for big stakes, but it highlights Miles and other grounded heroes and helps flush out the ultimate universe more.
A 4 out of 5.
