First half is solid fun as always but those last two issues are a struggle to get through. The whole Japan visit is just BORING.

Still a meh two parter. I do like Peter and Cats moments but rest? Boring.

A very very eh team up. The first one was solid fun this loses that edge. It felt like since Bendis had to force Miles in the 616 he doesn't know how to keep him as interesting.

Kind of the middle of the road volume. Had some great moments with Uncle Ben and Peter and of course peter in general is written really fun. Good cute moments with MJ too. But the Anti-bully storyline feels a bit too heavy handed at times and the end result is just decent but overall not a horrible volume or anything.

A better volume than the last one but still kind of shaky.

Basically this is Spider-Man (Miles) Final storyline under Bendis.

Bendis on Ultimate was almost unbeatable. But ever since he had to force Miles into the regular universe, things have gone downhill.

The Bombshell stuff is the strongest part here. Her and Miles relationship is really cute and also heartfelt. I also enjoyed the Miles fights here, they looked great. And the final issue where Miles gets very sick and almost dying is very touching. Especially the part with Peter and also his mom and dad. This is all good stuff here.

But the Uncle Aaron part is eh, and I really didn't care for the huge battle that felt overblown by the new and silly af sinister six basically. I just didn't like much of what was going on there if I'm being honest.

Overall a 3 out of 5, like most of the run ever since Miles was forced into the 616.

A big, confusing, while keeping the edgy feel of the first volume.

I think this was a little too convoluted to the point I was confused what was happening for awhile. I usually love Cates stuff, but this wasn't it. I know he was going through a hard time during this (Divorce) and some of it is played out here. And also soon after got into a car accident. So I know he's not doing well when writing this but it shows.

Overall lots more deaths, weird twist at the end, and it feels almost superficial in the end.

A 2.5 out of 5. Pushing it to a 3 ONLY because the art is still great.

Well least Peter had a few epic moments and overall solid pacing again.

Adorable and cute. Tigres is becoming a favorite of mine now.

Closer to a 3.5 but I'll bump it to a 4. Sam has to fight White Wolf and it's a pretty great team up with Ian (Steve's son) to take him down. Entertaining throughout.

Spider-Man is trying to balance his life while also dealing with being a New Avenger.

This is basically reeling from May's house burning down and now May, Peter, and MJ live in the Avenger's Tower. It's a weird transition but it mostly works. However, Hydra here is...okay. Them as villains and their big plot is just decent at best and the villains which are pale imitations of the real heroes like Thor and Cap just come off as cheesy. But the storylines with Peter and MJ, May and Jarvis, and Peter and Tony are all handled really well. Not a great volume but solid. A 3 to 3.5 out of 5.
