What Spiderman should have been.

I can't remember enjoying Spider-man this much before.

Sweet Zombie Jesus, yes.

By all rights, a retelling of the origins of Marvel's heroes set in the year 1602 shouldn't have been that entertaining.

Absolutely fantastic. You can't get much more in your face than this.

A very, very strong start to a series.

Not the most satisfying of endings, but overall one of the best graphic novel series I have read to date.

By all accounts, it shouldn't have been half as enjoyable as it was. But I love that old guy.

Great build up, felt shortchanged by the payoff. Somewhat anticlimactic.

Good enough to keep me interested for volume 2. Not Vaughan's best work.

I think I liked it, but then again, it could just be the title that calls to me.

A few gems, but for the most part, rather bland.

Fun concept with uninteresting results.

A resounding 'meh'.

Vaughan is losing me, but I'll still check it out when Whedon takes over.

Without the threat of the pride, so goes the urgency that kept volume 1 moving.

The Green Lantern sequences were enjoyable, the rest fell flat.

Didn't live up to the hype, found the story too fragmented.

JJ confronts Peter Parker, whom he now knows is Spider-man. Should've been so much more.

I don't think I've ever been this uninterested in finishing a comic book.

Really disappointing, especially following the enjoyment of Planet Hulk.

Would have been enjoyable if it wasn't such a slap in the face to long time fans.
