Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows Vol. 3: Eight Years Later by Jody Houser

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book fast forwards eight years to Annie as a teenager. It collects Issues 13-18, with two three issue stories.

The Eight Years Later story is okay, but not great. The art is decent and the story is fine. There's some clunky exposition that's required and the story's nothing special. It features Peter trying to teach Annie a lesson (as if for the first time) that's so basic that it's impossible to imagine he hadn't taught it before.

Fast Times at Midtown High finds Annie in high school and mortified by Peter taking a teaching job When two kids develop superpowers, she lies to her parents, designs her own costume, and takes them under her wing. It's an interesting story that shows the potential of what a teenage Annie can bring to the series as we can explore her character as she tries to find her own way in life and establish her own identity. Overall, a good story.

Despite, some bumps, this was a fun collection. Looking forward to Volume 4.
