3.0

Chip Zdarsky Spider-man has been a interesting ride so far.

Right off the bat the first issue is insane. Peter parker is being hunted by a police force and he's basically running through apartments trying his best to escape them without hurting anyone. From there the craziness grows as villains strike out to try to capture him and his sister. Then, when heroes arrive, we think the hero will catch a break but nope! Then the Thinker reveals his true self and BAM!

Good: The first issue is great. Truly a action set piece in comics. Super tense and fun. I also enjoy the relationship between Peter and his sister a lot. The dialogue sometimes is so on point it's great and the fights are pretty epic.

Bad: J.J. takes a backseat here, not giving much for him. I also thought the ending was kind of a cop out, and here we go again with time travel.

Overall this is a bit stronger than volume 1 overall. It still has pacing issues at times, and sometimes too much talking, but it's still fun. It'll be interesting to see how this all ends. A 3.5 out of 5.
