MAN was Harry good here. And once again, the art cannot go unmentioned. Fantastic.

I loved the MJ scene and the Spider suit mark 2. Glad he turned it down. However, while each chapter is great, there is a lot of telling. I want more action, and Peter’s spider sense needs to work better.

Another great issue but honestly at this point, aren't they all?
This was fun cause see MJ get more screentime and she's great in this as is Ben and Jonah. Then we get Peter and Harry teaming up and it's honestly wonderful cause you know the trainwreck that is coming but can't stop reading. I also really enjoyed their villain this issue. Overall very good.

Pode ser um universo novo, totalmente diferente do 616 e iniciado do 0, mas eu não consigo confiar no Harry, não tem jeito. Depois da edição 8 (ou 7, não me recordo) que ele instalou uma IA do pai dele, ele está bem suspeito, e nessa edição ele ainda tem uma conversa séria com o Peter, indo contra pensamentos heroicos apontados pelo Peter.
No geral, essa edição avança bem na trama, deixando um sentimento de perigo daqui em diante para a dupla de heróis, pois após a reunião do Fisk com os vilões na edição passada, temos aqui o primeiro embate entre os heróis contra o Black Cat, contendo cenas de ação com desenhos incríveis. O que foi apresentado, indicou que o vilão da ocasião foi o primeiro, que os demais iniciaram uma caçada com recompensa por ambos heróis.
Além disso, somos apresentados ao novo uniforme do Miranha, que lembra muito o fornecido pelo Stark ao Tom Holland no universo cinematográfico da Marvel. Eu sou mais a vibe do uniforme padrão, mas essa versão tecnológica ficou bem bonita.
Ademais, temos um avanço também no novo jornal do Ben com o J.J, mostrando que o empreitada está sendo um sucesso, podendo em breve bater de frente com o Clarim. Dessa forma, eles conseguirão realizar matérias mais polémicas, indo contra as diretrizes anteriores que eles tinham com a censura de Fisk no Clarim. Estou bem empolgado para saber como será esse trabalho jornalístico de ambos e o que eles vão expor.

i love the look and color scheme of the regular suit so I’m so incredibly happy we aren’t already ditching it

The issue is a fun read, and really interesting in terms of character development. But if you're looking for a knockdown drag out fight, then this isn't the issue for you. Interesting new developments, a lot of stuff happening, great character moments and amazing art. This continues to be a special book.

⁷"You need to know something, Peter. If I'm put to the choice and one of them is about to kill you... I will never hesitate"
The second story arc of USM continues to surprise me with its maturity, depth and how deeply Hickman understands Spider-Man and use his characters and antagonists in a conpletely different way. Otto's failed attempt to get Pete to use the Spider-Armor, Harry's grit and desire for vengeance against the perpetrators of his father Norman and Aunt May's deaths, and Peter's staunch stance on trying to keep a sense of honour in a world where his enemies have no desire to show him any.
Harry almost kills The Black Cat to save Peter and doesnt hesitate because he would've killed Peter without hesitation, breeding Osborn's more open moral compass, and JJJ + Uncle Ben's plans for The Paper continue to develop as a really interesting side narrative also.
Im continually loving this series, and Im so grateful that we have this amidst the politiking and writer sabotaging thats happening over at Amazing Spider-Man!

This series makes me smile. I could wax poetically about Hickman’s writing or Checcetto’s art, & I’ll get to those in a bit, but at the end of the day I could read this series in any mindset & I’d instantly have a smile in my face. This book is exactly why I read comics. Is there a better feeling than that?
Between Ben/JJJ/MJ figuring out their business model or Peter & Harry discussing their ideas on crime fighting, Hickman is creating human stories. Strip away all of the superhero aspect of it all & this would still be captivating dialogue. Hickman is also laying the groundwork for these character dynamic to take multiple paths. Will JJJ remain a more joyful version of himself or will the Spider-Man stories overshadowing his investigative journalism be what pushes him to come full circle & hate Spider-Mqn? Can Harry continue staying a benevolent Goblin or are starting to see the cracks form on his path to villainy? Hickman has done such a great job that any direction he chooses will feel earned.
Checcetto on this book may be the best writer/artist pairing Marvel currently has — & they have some strong teams! Every panel looks cinematic. The character designs, Spider-Man’s poses, the action sequences. His use of shadowing during the scene w/ Otto gave me goosebumps. Matt Wilson’s colors ooze with drama & lettering by Cory Petit & Joe Caramagna provides depth. The “sploooosh” onomatopoeia after a water tower collapses was splendid.
Ultimate Spider-Man’s debut issue instantly proved this new Ultimate Universe had leg. It gave the other series a platform to explore familiar concept in new ways that didn’t feel like cash-grab gimmicks. Nearly 10 months later it remains the Universe’s crown jewel & continues to impress & build on its own success w/ each new issue.

La amenaza de los 6 Siniestros parece que llegará de forma gradual. Y en este número sirve para seguir aumentando el suspense en torno a Harry Osborn y esa esperable conversión villanesca que veremos si Hickman cumple o no.
En otro orden de cosas, Ben y Jameson han iniciado su nuevo periódico descubriendo que su creciente éxito deriva de la cobertura de las heroicidades de Spiderman... ¿J. J. también recaerá en conocidos hábitos de sus contrapartes troncales del Multiverso? ¿Y qué me decís de ese Otto Ottavius a dos pasos de aceptar su rol villanesco o incluso su enfoque SUPERIOR?
No sé yo si toda esta propuesta argumental de Ultimate Spiderman de dar tanto "codazos cómplices" a lo ya consabido del "Spiderverso" puede seguir siendo lo principal de la cabecera. En estos números recientes da la sensación de que se pierde ese agradecido costumbrismo familiar de este Peter (veremos si cumplen con la prometida cena navideña de los Parker).

Ultimate Spider-Man #9 keeps building on Hickman and Checchetto’s grounded, reimagined universe. Peter gets another suit upgrade, Harry and Peter clash with a sinister new threat, and we get sharp character moments—especially a fun exchange where J. Jonah Jameson and Ben Parker get marketing lessons on The Paper from MJ.
There’s also an intriguing update to Doc Ock’s role. The pacing is still on the slow side, and Peter’s casual attitude toward danger feels a bit off. But the world feels lived-in and fresh, with clever twists on the familiar. A solid entry that rewards longtime fans while charting bold new territory.

Catching up (at least with what is on the Marvel Unlimited app, at this time).
As someone who is deep in the Spider-Man fandom, algorithm, web, as you may say, I have found this book to be a little overhyped up to this point.
It’s still very good though. Hickman’s always terrific writing, Checcettos’s always terrific art elevate what imo is a just good remix, into something special.
I especially love the stuff with Uncle Ben and JJJ.
I’m feeling 4 stars on the series so far (which is very good) but the last few issues, jigsaw pieces are falling into place.

The series (no surprise here) continues to be great! The art is fantastic, the pacing is well done, and the characterization is top-notch. I really like how the friendship (and clear differences) between Harry and Peter took shape here, and how Peter's new suit sets up some possible conflicts for the future.

4 estrellas.
La primera aparición de los nuevos seis siniestros, bueno, no nuevos, en su universo son los primeros, pero bueno, se entiende.
Me gustó la alineación, y también los personajes, al menos el padre de Felicia, espero que en un futuro podamos verla, me gusta la versión ultimate del Iron-Spider

Damn damn !!
Iron Spider suit reveal was amazing and I love how it looks. Ben and Jameson got their shit going on and the duo of Spidey and Goblin continues to flow well while having moments of tension that makes it feel like something will eventually combust between them. I love the friendship between the two and how much depth Harry has in this series. This has simply been peak…

Misleading cover, still good.
The issue was a great issue, but the cover is definitely misleading as the Sinister Six never make an appearance. They aren’t even mentioned. That said though, still a fun story that was told in this issue

Muito irado ver a história crescendo e se moldando cada vez mais. O pequeno embate entre o Peter e o Harry, Jonah e Ben movendo as engrenagens como sempre, e até a pequena participação da MJ foi super legal
May 8, 2025
Lo mejor el inicio con MJ y los dos señores mayores. El tema de los trajes también tiene su gracia. Por lo demás, sigue la atmósfera de sospecha y Spiderman tiene un enfrentamiento bastante deslavado con uno de los siniestros.
September 25, 2024
Hickman please if you can hear me I'm begging you to let Harry and Peter be friends longer I don't know if I'm mentally prepared for this break up yet
September 26, 2024
really fun stuff, a little thin but MJ slays, Peter's quite alright, Harry isn't even thrown under the bus!
September 26, 2024
I love the subtle tension and disagreements between Harry and Peter, you just know they're gonna fight at some point. Hickman continues to cook.
September 27, 2024
Much better than previous issues
September 28, 2024
I wish this came out WEEKLY. Delicious 29 pages.
September 29, 2024
peter and harry's ideologies clash with each other and there's no doubt that more is to come. it was a fun read but the slow burn is killing me tho
October 9, 2024
Far better than many issues of the past - which makes me quite excited, seeing how three more issues remain to conclude this fascinating arc.
October 13, 2024
I’m really enjoying this but I think I would like to see more of the family dynamic in general
October 18, 2024
Continually blown away by this run. Gotta be my favourite dynamic between Pete and Harry since, probably ever.
October 21, 2024
Loved the Mark II suit slagging.
December 26, 2024
I see everything you're seeding with this ish Hickman and I'm here for all of it.
