Amazing Spider-Man #10 Review

The GoodThe most fascinating thing about this book isn't the Morlun family killing off Spider-Folk from different worlds. It's the fact Peter Parker and Superior Spider-Man have come face-to-face. In addition, Miles and Peter are reunited as well (SPIDER-MEN fans start cheering now). If you were a fan of SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN, then this is the moment you've been waiting for, since he was knocked out of time.

The real purpose of this issue is to bring the team with the 616 Peter Parker and the Superior Spider-Man team together. Also, it's an excuse to see ALL the Spider-folks take on some of the Morlun clan. Does the issue deliver an immense amount of action that has excitement, suspense, and some touching moments? Well, that's a rhetorical question. Of course it does. It's almost overwhelming how fast this issue moves, even though it's packed to the gills with dialogue.

What's been great about Spider-Verse, and this issue especially, is that it's a lot of fun fan service, which is normally something I'm not a fan of. It's obvious that Dan Slott loves the character and the history of the character. We get to see so many different Spider-folk and most importantly, this book is just a ton of fun. Better yet, it's a ton of fun and tells an interesting story.

The Bad
The issue has a lot of action and people coming together, but it feels like something bigger should have happened here. While most of the issue is a joy to read, it feels like something is missing. It may be because the last issue delivered so many revelations and this one delivered so few.

The Verdict
ASM #10 wasn't as big as a hit as issue #9, it still delivers a ton of fun. Dan Slott loves this character and it shows. Yes, at times, it's a fan service book, but that's not such a bad thing in this case because it's involved in a very interesting story, conceptually. Luckily, it's also executed well too, and the art team is top notch. While this issue left me feeling like something was missing, overall, it's an awesome issue and I'm loving this arc.
