Spider-Man: The Other
by Pat Lee, Reginald Hudlin, Mike Wieringo, Peter David, J. Michael Straczynski, Mike Deodato Jr.
This is a very long event lol.
I remember it more fondly in my day of reading as a teenager than reading it now. HOnestly this could have been half as long as just as effective. It's basically a 12 issue evolution storyline of Peter becoming more spider like. It probably was a bit of JMS idea but also they wanted Peter to shoot webs out of his arms like the movie I'm sure. The idea of him having stingers is also weird...but maybe a easter egg for Spider-Man 2099. The biggest gripe I have with it is the different art styles are SO different it makes the brutal fights turn silly the next issue in terms of design. Also the writing feels very different too.
This felt like a stretched out storyline on purpose but it was still decent enough with some great MJ and Peter moments and brutal fights. Just wish it felt more completed and not like 4 different artist going back and forth making it feel off.
A 3 out of 5.
