Hey! It's a crossover event that's actually FUN!

description

I've been getting burned out on these events lately, but Spider-verse has more going for it than some of the other stuff I've read.
Now, I haven't read all of the other titles in the crossover, but I had already read Edge of Spider-Verse , Spider-Woman, Vol. 1: Spider-Verse, & Amazing Spider-Man, Vol. 2: Spider-Verse Prelude. Which was enough for me to feel like I was getting the lion's share of the story.
I may go back for some of the other titles later. Maybe.

description

The gist is that there is this family called the Inheritors who live on (I think!) Loomworld. <--Because spiders are weavers, and weavers have looms?

description

Their sole purpose is to suck the life force out of Spider Totems (read: Spider-men, Spider-woman, Spider-bots, Spider-animals, & Spider-babies).
Spider-ham! Yuuuuum...

description

Anyway, this is the volume where it all comes together! The final battle between the Inheritors & basically every Spider in the multiverse!
Boom! Pow! Sock! Ka-blam-o!

description

Yeah, yeah...sounds goofy, but there really are some awesome moments in this thing!
Including a showdown between Otto and Peter, as the Superior Spider-man tries to prove he's got what it takes to lead in the future.

description

This is the conclusion of Doc Ock's time as Spider-man, so fans of that title may want to read this in order to get one last glimpse of him.
sniffle

description

Also, a pretty touching moment between Pete & Gwen...

description

Everyone's favorite Ultimate Spider-man, Miles Morales, shows up, too! Among other things, he takes a trip to (what appears to be) the Cartoon Universe.
Dawwww! How cute!

description

And best of all?! THIS:

description

I don't want to spoil how it all goes down, but there were plenty of things about it that made this one a great load of fun to read. At least, it was for me.
And visually? It was Amazing <--of course!

description

Now, if your aren't into Spidey, then this may not be for you. It could be very confusing for someone who isn't familiar with any of these characters, so I'm definitely not recommending this as a jumping-off point for any newbies. I honestly think it would be overwhelming unless you're somewhat familiar with these characters.

description

However, if you do know a bit about these guys? Yeah, go for it! Spider-verse was highly entertaining, so I'd easily recommend it for hardcore fans.

I realize it isn’t always kosher to lead off a review with a gif…



Spider-Ham, Spider-Ham
Cured and roasted, Spider-Ham
On a roll, or by the pound
Mayo, mustard, your eating’s sound




Whoa indeed and I have a sudden craving for a ham BLT.

Man, this one is a busy three and a half stars rounded down.

It seems that a group called the Inheritors find anything Spider-ish good eatin’, so Spider-folk everywhere are arming up to battle and there are lots and lots of Spider-folk. Almost to a point where my overtaxed brain pled for mercy.



Throw in a boat load of *’s and Editor’s notes referencing the satellite titles and I almost cried. Wept tears the size of Ego the Living Planet.

Fortunately, the fun prevailed. Well, as much fun as can be had when you’re tallying the number of Spider-guys that are biting the dust.

So, “fun” is a relative term.

Hey, this one’s got some nice Easter eggs and a few surprises.



Jeff, you just spoiled one of the surprises!!

Egad! Relax, Goodreader, there should be a couple more…

Bottom line: This volume is pretty much self-contained; you don’t have to read the tie-in titles unless you really loved the event. A visit to animated “60’s Spider-Man universe is in one of them and it looks fun.



If the volumes pop up in my library, maybe I’ll read them. Maybe.

Arrivederci, Spider-Gwen!

A threat has revealed itself that threatens every Spider-person in existence...The Inheritors.
description
description
The Inheritors feed on Spider-people and wish to make them extinct.
description
To defend against this threat Spider-people from all throughout the multiverse come together.
description
Including at least one Spider-Man no one ever expected to see again.
description

There is only one thought that comes to my mind when I think about Spider-Verse: that was really strange. I know Cindy Moon aka Silk was warned about Morlun and what he can do, but that doesn't make this any less weird. It was interesting seeing so many Spider-people from the multiverse, but the storyline seemed like an excuse to see them all together. The most compelling story line for me actually was Peter facing off against Otto Octavius as The Superior Spider-Man. It seemed really cathartic for Peter to be able to punch Otto's smug superior Spider nose. It's also funny when Otto realizes that once again Peter had to have defeated him.

The Spider-Verse's story didn't feel overly relevant. I easily could have gone my whole life without seeing Spider-Man Vampires.

Yo this was epic!!

Its the team up of Spider-men from across the multiverse to fight the biggest threat to them aka the Inheritors! But when they led by Pete have to confront and take down these vampire killers its not gonna be easy, friends will be lose, new ones will be gained but its gonna be a tough battle and also great to see SSM back and Otto and Pete in that dynamic and seeing so many alt versions and some from what if? stories were so cool. Its one of the best Spidey events ever and like offers a real threat to Spider-man and his final fight with Morlun and then Otto was some of the best fights ever and the art here is next level, some of the best storytelling Slott has ever told and continues to do so! One of my favorite stories easily. And a high recommend!

What is red and blue, makes constant quips during battle and also vampires’ favorite food? Well your friendly neighborhood Spider-man of course! (at least in Marvel Universe). –wait stop throw tomatoes to me, the joke wasn’t so bad… was it?
description
I am not a big fan of Marvel’s big events. They are the personification of extravaganza. I am a huge fan of Spider-man stories though. And I sure as hell love alternative universes. So when I heard that this story is about a Spider-army against the bloodthirsty vampire family of Morlun then I was sure at least for one thing: it’s gonna be freakin’ funny. And who is better to write something like that than Dan Slott? He is perhaps one of the very few people that gets Peter Parker’s sense of humor so good and probably the most ambitious Spider-man writer ever (see Superior Spider-man). Who else would dare to write a story with not one, not two, not three but over than fifty Spideys (even Leopardon) and manage to create an actually good Marvel event? And yes a story with a few dozen alternative versions of our beloved superhero is impossible not to be a mess- but trust me it’s the good kind of mess!
Ok Spider-verse is not a marvelous masterpiece but is sure as hell enthralling and entertaining. It has a solid story with many wow moments. It gives the reader a feeling of pleasurable fascination and excitement mixed with anticipation and tension as the plot builds towards the climax. It introduces us two major breakout characters, Silk and Spider-Gwen (a huge gift to the cosplayers around the world). And if all of these aren’t enough for you I can give you some more good reasons to read it; Miles Morales, Mayday Parker, Spider-man 2099, Spider-Ham, Superior Spider-Man, animated Ultimate Spider-Man, Scarlet Spider, 67’ Spider-Man, Spider-Man Noir and of course the one and only…*epic music* Leopardon!
description
Ps: I have to admit that seeing all these deaths of the many alternatives versions of Peter Parker was a guilty pleasure.

Alright Slott, don't let me down here and hand off your story scribbles to Christos "never turn down an opportunity to use a character's name in dialogue to make sure no reader is ever confused, you fucking pedant" Gage to flesh out into paint-by-numbers script.

Slott certainly has his humour-sense tingling in this book:







And I enjoyed the Silk sub-plot immensely. (Hot slinky spider-type? Yes please)





So *that's* how they're tying Morlun into this trans-dimensional foolishness - retconning him a whole family of Spider-hunters (who keep some pretty interesting other Spider-hunters as pets).

There's something very nostalgic about bringing all these various cast-offs, alterna-verse and clones/descendants/experiments of Spider-Man together all at once - and even though I haven't read probably half of the books from which they sprung, it's a warm, welcome feeling to see so many of them gathered, recognizing each other and working together. It's like a high-school reunion without half of the drag of being called dork all over again. (Except when my fellow Shallow Comics Readers get a load of my weepy review here.)

When the Japanese spiders came on the scene I felt a little thrill of something I don't truly understand and have rarely watched: all the Japanese manga and giant robot cartoons and books, where giant monsters are battled down to submission with great politeness and lots of loud screams of withheld joy. Why did I care? Because Dan Slott cared, and when he's bringing something laden with meaning to this party, you sit up and take notice, give thanks and lend your respect to the proceedings.

This is a great story and I believe it that Dan Slott had this cooking for years. It was a completely fun romp through a ridiculous number of Spider-Man spin-offs, cast-offs and alternate versions. (Who knew there was a Punk Rock Spidey, an Iron Fist Spidey or even a Deadpool Spidey? OK, everyone but me probably knew about that last one.)

I had so much fun with this book that it was a *pleasure* chasing all the crossovers and spin-off miniseries. (When was the last time you could say *that* about a modern-day comics event?) Go see my other reviews if you don't believe me. I'll wait.

Slott, next time you marinate one of these ideas for a couple of years, call me. You're a gem.

Alucinante haber empezado a leer historias de Spider-Man con este tomo. Ha sido una pasada, en serio. Una historia 100% Marvel, plagada de decenas de (peculiares) Spidermans del multiverso que luchan contra los Herederos, unos seres vampíricos brutales. Me ha tenido living, y el dibujo es pura fantasía. Si ya era fan de Peter Parker, ahora más que nunca.

I usually abhor big comicbook 'events'. They derail the storylines of the books they throw themselves into the path of to the point where you can almost feel the writers gritting their teeth.

Spider-Verse, though, I really enjoyed. For starters, it only involved the Spidey titles, so we didn't have to endure every other Marvel book being forced into the mix. It also tied in nicely with current events in the Avengers titles without feeling the need to actually cross over with them. The threat felt genuine and the stakes were actually really high in a believable way. I didn't feel like any of the characters were safe. It was action-packed, the plot moved forward at a good pace and the protagonists (who, by the very nature of the story, were all quite similar) felt like they had their own voices. There were also a few moments that were genuinely moving. Also, SPIDER-HAM! I feckin' love me some Spider-Ham...

All in all, I loved it. So why not five stars? Well, I had to drop a star because of the parts of the story that just felt like advertisements for the two new Spider-titles, Silk and Spider-Gwen. I find the concept of Spider-Gwen an interesting one within the pages of Spider-Verse, but giving her her own title? I'm not convinced. As for Silk, she couldn't be any more of a Mary Sue character. 'I have all the powers of Spider-Man but BETTER! Great, huh?' No, not great. It's fan-wankery. I wouldn't let a player use this character in an RPG, let alone give it its own title.

These grumbles aside, I enjoyed Spider-Verse a great deal. Now to petition Marvel to give Peter Porker his own book again...

I enjoyed this quite a bit. It's a slightly darker, grittier story (think Kraven's Last Hunt) than you typically get for a Spider-Man story and I think that needs to happen every once in awhile. You've got a major threat coming after every Spider totem in the multiverse and all of the totems band together to stop it.

What's also continually amazing to me is how Slott is able to effectively juggle so many plot threads and characters at the same time and still result in an understandable and enjoyable story. He also ties up loose ends to previous stories from other writers at times, fully accepting the previous stories (the idea of totems and Ezekiel) as cannon and weaving (ahem) it into the current narrative. Slott also reminds everyone of why Spider-Man is who he is and why he is a hero, staying true to the heart of the character.

I'm a big fan of Coipel's art and while he didn't do all of the story it was enough to bump this event up a notch. He typically draws the wide, big muscular types which Spidey is not, so it was interesting to see his take on the webbed hero.

One slightly bad point was toward the end, the Spider teams split up to handle different missions, resulting in separate mini-series. This volume doesn't detail those only their result. I believe the hardcover has some or all of those and I'm considering picking that up now.

I was generally happy with how this event turned out. There's plenty of cool action, and the various Spiders remain distinct enough to be separate characters. There's even time for a few moments for character development for versions of Spider-Man who will likely never be seen again! The ending did feel a bit rushed to me, and I'm somewhat skeptical of the usual comic book moral relativism: it's a terrible thing to crush a crystal holding the consciousness of a remorseless serial killer, but totally cool to trap a family of serial killers in a dimension that's
literally poisonous to them so they have to live in a tiny bunker eating spiders for the rest of their lives. Because that's totally a sustainable lifestyle that won't lead to their imminent, painful deaths.

Свежа идея за множеството версии на Спайдър-мен в Мултивселената; яки персонажи в лицето на смъртните им врагове - вампирите Наследници. Обаче точно част от "паячетата" - например онова Спайдър-прасе?!?! - лично за мен пресолиха манджата... Нямам нужда от подобен тип хумор. 3,5/5

Inauguro el año con este Universo Spiderman, estrenando a la vez la colección Must-Have de Marvel, luego de que Spider-Man: No Way Home, renovara por enésima vez mi "Spidermanía".

Dan Slott siempre me ha rendido como guionista de Spider-Man, conoce al personaje, su entorno y su continuidad, por algo permaneció en "Amazing" durante casi exactamente una década.
Morlun, es sin duda en la actualidad el villano estrella de la franquicia, pero en manos de Slott su letalidad no es suficiente, entonces aquí es acompañado por su siniestra familia Los Herederos, cuyo objetivo consiste esencialmente en devorar cualquier Spider que se cruce en su camino.
Arañas de todo el multiverso se reúnen en una batalla a muerte por la supervivencia, no faltan grandes dosis de acción, humor y drama, básicamente lo que uno espera encontrar en éstas páginas.

Los dibujantes principales, Coipel y Camuncoli, cumplen con el objetivo de sumar espectacularidad y dinamismo al relato, ambos presentan algún que otro problemilla técnico/narrativo, pero se lo podemos dejar pasar.

Diversión asegurada.

Though I tend to like a lot of Dan Slott's work (She-Hulk, Silver Surfer, and Superior Spider-Man), I haven't been a fan of the Spider-Verse storyline at all. Some of the stories I've read of the alternate world Spideys are alright, but this particular book is far too action-focused for my liking. I would've liked more characterization. (...And what's with the Spider-chick in the barely-there swimsuit? Really? Really!?)

So, is this how Marvel always does crossover arcs? With issues spread across a hundred different volumes instead of gathering them all together in one?

To be fair, it is totally possible to follow the story with just this volume of The Amazing Spiderman, but it's missing basically every plotline which leads to the conclusion, meaning that almost everything is accomplished off-screen. At one point, we even miss one of Peter's plotlines! Um. Main-Peter, that is.

That's another thing. They bring about six hundred Spiders in at once within the first issue and it's just too many characters to keep track off. Adding to the confusion is the fact that a lot of their costumes are too similar to tell apart easily (I lost track of Main-Peter far too often during the first couple of issues), several of them are called Peter, and at least two of the women are called Jess. There's also not enough time to give all of their personalities time to shine either.

The plot isn't bad, there's some decent one-liners, some cool moments (two words: giant mecha) and, if nothing else, it's convinced me that I would like to pick up some stuff with Miles Morales in, but it's just too cluttered with characters to be anything more than a confusing Spider-soup.

This was fun. While the storyline itself was pretty dark, it had a lot of fun working in Spiderpeople from across the multiverse, and there were plenty of surprises including the Japanese TV Spider-man showing up.

If you're a fan of Spider-man despite all the dark and scary stuff, this is a book that'll bring a smile to your face. The one thing I really didn't like is that this book kept referring to the tie-ins and events from the tie-ins came into the min story in such a way that you felt like you missed something if you don't get the tie-in. Again, that's pretty annoying IMHO.

Still, what does cinch this as a pretty good book is that the Epilogue Issue did actually have some interesting and some good plot twists rather than being (as many epilogue issues are) bog standard exposition.

The movie was better, but this is not bad at all.

(Review from 2024, read in 2015)

Here it is the crossover that inspired some of the best animated movies of the last decade. It does suffer from being the core series of a crossover event where you have to track down a dozen issues from various Spider-Man series to get the whole story but the core story is still fun. It's great to see all the various Spider-Man and Spider-Woman variants together and fighting ancient evil and just bringing out the best in each other and one of the most enduring characters in comic book history. No wonder they wanted to turn this story into a movie.

Having watched Into the Spider Verse, this title caught my eye on the shelf. Unfortunately I'm not a fan of vampires in the Marvel verse (sorry, not even Blade!), and this OP family was a bit eye rolling. But it was fun seeing the wide variety of Spiders. Too bad the film couldn't fit in the Superior Spiderman, as that was one of the best bits of the volume.

This was my second reading of Spider-verse. I enjoy the story. Coipel’s art is magnificent. Slott does a good job of taking elements from Spidey’s past continuity and using it with the Inheritors. I am glad readers get to see the likes of Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen. Overall a good read.

Нелоша история за последния (?) сблъсък на Спайдър-мен с Наследниците. Даже не само на един Човек-паяк, а на много такива от различните вселени, които съставляват т.нар. "мултивселена". Нелоша, а и както може да се очаква - повърхностна история с няколко плахи опити за вкарването на дълбочина.
