The Rundown: Peter finds himself facing an old foe as a new threat continues to grow and spread throughout the city.
After leaving the X-Men to deal with the growing supernatural threat throughout the city, Peter makes his way to Oscorp only to find Ben there standing over Norman. Calling himself Chasm, Ben distracts Peter long enough to Venom to go on the attack. With Venom and Spider-Man trading blows, Chasm begins the next phase of his plan.
Peter will have to do something quickly if he has any chance of surviving his fight and his hail Mary play will attract the attention of Madelyne and his new henchwoman Hallow’s Eve. A move that will give Ben the time he needs to confront another target, J. Jonah Jameson.
The Story: The Dark Web storyline continues to be interesting and Wells does a great job of balancing the seriousness of the threat with the kind of humor you expect from a Spider-Man title. Dealing with the aftermath of more clone drama is a little daunting and this premise doesn’t seem strong enough to sustain itself for long, but so far things are interesting and entertaining enough to keep me interested in seeing what comes next.
The Art: McGuiness is a master of visual storytelling and every page and panel is filled with energy and excitement. I love the visual style a lot and was impressed with the action.
