A pretty week story that attempted to be a fun Spider-Man/Wolverine team-up.

The premise was too juvenile to overlook, relying on tired story tropes and passing emotional outburst off as character depth.

The stylized are was pretty fun.

At first I was kinda iffy on the book but middle ground on it really blew my expectations out the water art work is genuinely amazing and the story buildup is amazing

[Andrew Alvis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Solid work and the mixing of both heroes backgrounds, rogues gallery and some proper shady dealings from Wolverine's past gave this some proper guts.

The art delivered on all fronts, with extra care taken to emphasise the damage both Spidey and Wolverine did to one another. Honestly, I'd forgotten just how much censors made cartoon Spider-Man would hold back!

Good voice for the characters but it feels like it can’t decide if it wants to be a fun greatest hits adventure or a serious dramatic arc. Seems like it wants to be the latter more but I think it’s more successful when it is being the former

Nice art tho

Felt like a knockoff of Avengers Civil War the movie

This felt like someone just reskinned the MCU Civil War movie, I hated it. I probably wouldn't have been a fan of it if it felt original, but that it apes the same major plot points made me like it that much less by association.

Art work and the story is great

[Daniel Butcher · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fight villains, build lore, fight some more, build lore, fight…meh ending, lore.

I liked it and forgot about it as soon as it was finished. The perfect 3 star graphic novel. I look forward to reading and then forgetting about volume 2 in a few months.
