The Rundown: Kraven’s hunt continues as Peter is forced to make a dark decision to save the people he loves.
Richard finds himself facing off against Felicia Hardy and reveals that he is not the person she is looking for. A move that will bring the pair to an interesting understanding as they find a new way to communicate other than with their fists. At the same time, Peter and Harry continue to trek through the Savage Land to escape from Kraven and find an unlikely ally in Mole Man, who has his own plans for Kraven.
As Peter contemplates the fact that Kraven knows who he is and where his family is, the pair decide to lay a trap for the hunter. A trap that will give Peter the advantage in the fight but will cost him something more. Something that will force Peter to make a decision that will change the lives of everyone in his family.
The Story: Hickman continues to deliver both high octane action and thrills in this series and this issue is no exception. Beyond the fantastic action, I continue to enjoy how Hickman raises the stakes for Peter as well as craft engaging and compelling mysteries throughout the story. Things are becoming dark and complicated for Peter in this issue and I am engaged and enraptured by everything Hickman is doing with this story and how many new and intriguing twists and turns this plot is taking both for Peter and the other characters.
The Art: Marco Checchetto shines with the art in this issue. The visuals show not only great character designs, but beautiful landscapes and action.
