Vol 1. The End of the Spider Verse: The return of Sloot to Spidey comics sees him and Bagley jump into what felt like an over thought, too much happening Spider-Verse tale that hammers another nail it to what was originally a cool multiverse concept. Essentially this is a debut vehicle for Spider-Boy, yep you heard it right, yet another iteration of Spidey! Give it a few years and we'll have Trans Spidey and a tech bro Spidey! Scraping a Two Star, five out of 12, mainly thanks to a great start in issue one.

Vol 2. Maxed Out: The final four issues of this short run are yet to be collected, so I had to read the single comic books. Much better as we go back to basics with a maxed out Spider Sense, a rampaging Electro and an annoying Spider-Boy. Tell the simples stories well and the rest will follow. Next-up Spider-Boy (probably won't read) and yahoo the return of the Sinister Spider-Man. Oh this volume, made the Two Star, 5 out of 12 a bit firmer.

This ended up just being decent. Shathra is turning all spider totems into part of her hive and wants to take over the entire spider-verse. The spiders that have not been taken team up to stop Shathra. This felt like your run of the mill giant team-up with a few cool moments peppered in. Bagley’s art was great throughout and we get the first appearance of Spider-Boy. Not the greatest story but slightly above average.

In 2008, The Amazing Spider-Man began the Dan Slott era when he was a co-writer during the “Brand New Day” storyline. For ten years, Slott contributed so much to the web-slinger, and whilst not everyone was on board with the various directions he took, controversial events like Superior Spider-Man brought out some of the best Spidey storytelling. Following his departure, Amazing has had new writers such as Nick Spencer and currently Zeb Wells, where the results are mixed to say the least, so it felt welcoming when Slott is collaborating with another top Spider-Creator Mark Bagley on the separate title simply known as Spider-Man.

Considering the concept of a multiverse that comprises of multiple Spider-people has been around since the final episodes of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, the term “Spider-Verse” was coined during the 2014 comic book storyline of the same name. Whilst we now have the Spider-Verse movies that are putting their own spin on this concept, Slott continues an ongoing narrative that originates back when J. Michael Straczynski was writing Amazing.

Set during Zeb Wells’ current run on Amazing, when Peter Parker is working for his former arch-nemesis Norman Osborn and thus rocking a high-tech Spidey suit with its own glider, he is suddenly allied with the villain Morlun. Along with the various Spider-people, led by Julia Carpenter/Madame Web, Peter once again faces Shathra, the evil Spider-Wasp Goddess who has taken control of the Web of Life and Destiny on Loomworld and plans to wipe all the Spider variations with her army of Spider wasps.

As this is technically a conclusion of an on-and-off narrative, there are story elements here that will go over your head if you are stepping this coldly, such as Morlun and his estranged family, the Inheritors. However, Slott does enough right from the initial set-up here that you go along with Peter on his multiversal journey, which does take some interesting detours. One of those detours is how Peter deliberately sidelined, which allows time to get to know the other variations, such as Madame Web struggling as the leader, whilst the newest characters make an impression, including Felicia Hardy/Night-Spider, Kraven/Hunter Spider and a Disney-like singing princess.

Although you can see Slott having fun with the multiple Spiders being split off into their own mini adventure, including an Indiana Jones-styled tomb raid with a Spidey twist, the storyline perhaps goes on longer than it should. Issue #5, in particular, takes the biggest detour that is a “What If?” scenario where what would happen if Peter didn’t get bitten by a spider. This is a scenario that we have seen before, and Slott isn’t doing anything specifically new here, and it’s only when towards the end of the issue in how it will pay off in the overall narrative.

Given the story ultimately climaxes with a slugfest, in which all the Spiders go up against the big bad, Mark Bagley is also having a blast with this book. Having drawn Spider-Man on-and-off over the decades, Bagley is always improving with his distinct art-style, where there is always a new layer with every page he draws, from his panel layouts to his kinetic action sequences. With so many characters to juggle, some of his most dazzling panels stretch across double pages that so incredibly detailed with the number of figures that feature.

As this is the “End of the Spider-Verse", it is also marking the beginning of a new mystery as the book ends with the introduction of Spider-Boy, setting up the next arc in this current run, which is more fun than what Zeb Wells is doing with his run.

I was torn between 2 and 2.5, but it's better than ASM so I'll bump it up. By far the weakest Spider-verse story, but some of the new Spiders were interesting and it's nice having Bagley drawing Spider-Man again.

Dan Slott returns to writing Spider-Man and he’s doing another spider-verse story. Morlun has returned, and after Spider-Man gets word he goes all out, and does not hold back to stop him. He gets some back-up in Spider-Woman, Silk, and Miles Morales and all together they do what they can to hold him off…but Morlun seems to just want to talk. After more scuffle, a portal opens and Spider-Man Noir appears seemingly to help the other Spiders. However it’s revealed he isn’t fully himself and stabs Spider-Woman with a magic dagger! Other Spider-people from different dimensions appear, but they are all possessed by some sort of hive, The Hive of Shathra!

Dan Slott is back to Spidey and his attempts to come back with a bang, to me, fell short. Now I’ve yet to read his previous two spiderverse events, but for this one to be the “end” it was just short of alright. I feel like this wasn’t too thought out, and at times it just felt like Slott was playing with some toys, and making the story up as he went on. There were big build ups during an issue that led to absolutely nothing and even the ending just being like “alright, that’s all folks.” I wasn’t the biggest fan of his dialogue either, and also I felt he didn’t capture any of the spider-characters' voices well. Now I don’t think the story was complete crap, there are a few moments I enjoyed, but overall I feel like Slott doesn’t do anything entirely new for the character. and none of the stakes feel real. I know this is still a continuing series so hopefully Slott can change it up a bit.

Mark Bagley is the artist for this book and it really is the highlight of the series in my opinion. To me Bagley is the best Spidey artist, and even though I’d say this isn't his best, I still really enjoy his work and think wonders of it.

Overall; A few good moments mixed with a mass amount of mediocre are what this story is giving me, and a Bagley out of his prime still shows he’s a great Spider-Man artist! Check the book out for Bagley and that’s it! NUFF SAID!

After a strong start with the first crossover in 2014, Slott's various "Spider-Verse" miniseries have been a case of diminishing returns, and this "finale" unfortunately continues the downward slide in quality. The plot just doesn't have the level of drama, energy or excitement that the previous entrees did, but some of the new spider-people introduced here are entertaining in there own way, so it's not a complete wash.

SUN SPIDER MY BELOVED 😭❤️
Also PETER PARKER OF MC2 MY BELOVED 💞
I wish that the alternate universe Peter Parker after he got cut from the Spider-Verse got his own universe bc he was actually. Such a slay. I know he doesn’t but Man-In-The-Chair Peter is so… I love him.

I get the feeling “Spider-Boy” is not of 616 and is going to end up like Syndrome from Incredibles. To claim he’s always been apart of Earth-616 is going to get VERY messy VERY quick.

This took me some time to read but my god this was awesome!

So before reading this I will recommend reading Edge of spider-verse as it introduces characters from the Spider-verse, new variants and all and the big threat: SHATHRA, aka Spider-wasp and her big plans to destroy the web of life and destiny and maybe even take out her old nemesis Peter of 616, him being the "chosen one" and all and the story kinda plays out the way you expect it to but what's fun is seeing how this story turns on his head and shows allies becoming enemies and twists with every turn, SHATHRA trying to turn the heroes into her soliders and it truly feels like the end of Spider-verse and lives upto its name, upping the ante from the threat of Morlun and the Inheritors (who also play a part here in some unexpected but new ways)!

Also the big moment happens nd a lot of retcons maybe for the story purpose happens and its big and I remember reading articles for the same when it was coming out but what it leads to is shine a light on one new creation Slott did a few years back and you guessed it, Silk and its fascinating but what happens next is big and truly an exciting change not many will like it, but hey comics are exciting when something new happens, and the whole mythology is turned on its head.

I really like the retelling of the origin of Peter and some new exciting Peter variants or other Spider-verse variants and some fun cameos and some ridiculously funny ones which kind of balances out the dark theme of the book pretty well. My fav has to be the Car-Parker. Its so ridiculous in concept and look, but I love it haha!

What makes this more fun for me is that Bagley is on the art and truly sells me on the book here, he is the definitive Spider-man artist for him and just him drawing these many variants and threats just makes the story so much more awesome and can't wait to read more from this run!

Hearing Dan Slott was coming back to Spider-Man was exciting enough, but that he was coming back for another Spider-Verse story was the icing on the cake.

Unfortunately, the cake is a little...stale.

End Of The Spider-Verse has some great ideas. The return of Morlun, the revitalisation of Shathra (remember her?), and the introduction of some fun new Spider-People (If you don't love Princess Spinstress we can't be friends any more) are all superb, and the stakes feel suitably high by the mid-point of the story. It definitely feels like this could be the End Of The Spider-Verse after all.

But it then starts to lose steam, with some seemingly random plot 'twists' that take us in some odd directions, before coming back together for a rushed finale that almost makes some of what went before it feel pointless. It's a damn shame, because there was a lot of potential here. I feel like we either needed the story to be longer, so that the concepts in the last half (like that alternate universe Peter) had more time to breathe, or shorter, and some of those more out-there concepts could have been cut entirely.

Mark Bagley's on art, so you know it's gonna look good. The guy draws his ass off in every book he's on, and no matter how many Spider-People are in panels, he doesn't ever get lazy. Bagley is probably some people's quintessential Spider-Man artist after his long unbroken run on Ultimate Spider-Man back in the day, and there's a damn good reason for that.

Such promise, and yet the landing's a dud. Definitely not Slott's best Spidey work, unfortunately, but still worth a look just for the fun first half if nothing else.

With all the popularity of the Spider-Verse movies, I figured we might get another Spider-Verse comic. Like usual, another fun ride.
Highlights:
- Shathra returns, and unleashes Spider-Wasps on every Spider Totem she can, taking over much of the Spider-Verse.
- Morlun is sent to aid Peter against the wasps, but is only able to communicate that after they fight.
- Noir shows up and appears to want to help, but then stabs Spider-Woman with a dagger that removes all memory of them from the Great Web.
- Coming to rely on 616 Peter as the "Chosen One", they place a lot of hopes on Spidey.... but when he gets cut out of the Web, all seems lost.
- We are treated to a long story of what would have happened in 616 had Cindy Moon been bitten instead of Peter Parker. He ends up being her "guy in the chair".
- They are able to defeat Shathra by stabbing Morlun with the dagger, it having been revealed that the Inheritors were amongst the original Spider Totems. The power stored within him repairs the Web of Life and frees the Spiders from her control.
- At the end, the original Spider-Totem grants the ability to reweave Spiders into the Web. They bring back Jessica Drew, restore Spider-Man's powers to 616 Peter Parker, and reveal the existence of Spider-Boy, who reveals themselves as Bailey, and claims to have had tons of adventures with Peter and Miles.... but readers know, we have never seen him.

A new Spider character is a treat and I'll be curious to see what they do with him. (Does this have something to do with the drama around MJ? As far as I know, that mystery is still not solved...)
Overall, a good read. Definitely check this one out.

Dan Slott was responsible for one of the longest and least bad Spider-Man runs of all, and given the state of the series since he left, you can see the appeal of bringing him back for a companion title, and of hinging its first volume on the Spider-Verse, a concept which has gone on to huge mainstream success since Slott introduced it. But one key difference between the films and the comics is that the screen Spider-Verse doesn't feel inexplicably compelled to always use rubbish JMS-era villain Morlun and all the attendant waffle about totems, whose mystic mood has to me always felt at odds with the core appeal of Spidey (everyman, weird science - I'm not saying these are the only stories you can tell with him, but tying stuff beyond that to the heart of the character rather than having him stumble into it feels to me like a misstep). The main difference this time out is that we move past the vampiric goon to an even more trying noughties antagonist, Shathra - the parasitic wasp to Peter's spider. Cue lots of taken-over alternate universe spider-characters with creepy mandibles and sssibilant ssspeech patternsss. It can't help feeling tired, another go-round on a ride that used to be fun. But if the central story is by the numbers, the inventiveness around that is some recompense, whether it's mirroring the mixed media mischief of the films, or pushing the boundaries of what can be considered an alternate world by reifying typos. Peter even gets a little song about how Spider-Man has a hyphen! The finale pulls a risky move - think Buffy season 5 - which I suspect we might all come to regret, while also knowing I'll read the next volume to find out.

The phrase is, 'Until the wheels fall off...' and that's how it feels with the Spider-Verse saga.

It's been a fine run. Creative. Exciting. We've seen some truly original alternate versions of Spider-Man. (This isn't one of those times, though). I get the feeling that they were looking to put this to rest, finally. The new choices for alternate Spiders has been....lackluster? Everything about this screams, 'Marvel wants $$$'. Yes, there's a Spider-Verse movie coming out...but this has been played out in the comics. You can only pull so many ideas out of your hat. The retcon'ing of a new Spider character is a fine example. With an entry similar to The Sentry, (aka 616 Marvel forgot the character for years) we'll see how they....spin it?

We do get more details on the whole totem animal backstory. You know that means Morlun has something 'share' with the Spiders. It's also a bonus to see that they found something for Cindy Moon to do. (Have they passed the Spider-Gwen attention onto her now?)

Bonus: Why is (Cars) Parker such a good driver? He's a great parallel Parker. (Dad jokes!)
Bonus Bonus: How many times can you reboot Arana??

While I may not be the person who has the deepest understanding of Spider-Man and his modern comic run, I do enjoy dipping into the trades when I see Spider-Verse related things.

But that brings the downside of not knowing who some of the prominent players are and if they have been in the comics before now. I knew of Cindy Moon via other Spider comics I’ve read before and Madam Web but then all the variants of Spider People gets a tad confusing with who’s popped up in other events, side stories and other spider-man related projects.

The biggest problem I have is the villains motivation and plan because it seems we are near the end of events when they are introduced to mainline Peter Parker and the 616 Spiders.

But the story has decent characters, great art, fast pacing when it needs it. (Shame the formatting of the collected issues I have made it so some splash pages weren’t together so it felt odd to flick back and forth. But that’s not the story’s fault)

A nice third chapter to the comics Spider-Verse stuff though.

I was excited to see Dan Slott and Mark Bagley back on Spider-Man, especially considering how uneven (to put it nicely) Amazing Spider-Man has been in the years since. (The less said about the Nick Spencer era, the better.) This Spider-Verse story was just OK though. There's definitely some fun moments and new characters. The back half of this gets bogged down in a What If? story about Peter Parker though that dragged on too long. This pulls a lot from Slott and J. Michael Straczynski's run so if you are curious about Morlun and the Inheritors (along with Silk's origins) you'll need to go back that far to find out all about them. Don't worry though, the story reads just fine without it knowing every little detail. You do get a very short first appearance of Spider-Boy at the very end, who I know is all the rage now.

Bagley's art is terrific. He has become the Spider-Man artist of this century. Yes, I know he started on Spidey back in the 90's. Go with it.

Oh cool, has the aggressively mediocre Zeb Wells book been cancelled?

No, apparently not, on much closer inspection this is Spider-Man without the Amazing. I don't think Marvel understands how confusing their constant renamings and branchings and reboots are.

Anyway.

It's yet another Spider-Verse story, with a big fight against a cosmically powerful foe and lots of Spider-Men joining in. There are a few cool new Spider-man. There's a fake out death. It's all tremendously ... done before.

There's one great issue, a story of what might have happned to Peter if he didn't get powers. WHich is really nicely integrated into past and current mythology for Peter alike. And everything else is just more of the same [3+/5]

He aquí una historia de spiderverse con un inicio que se sintió un poco corto... Pero supongo, que es para dar el gancho exacto para los siguientes números.

En esta historia aparece Silk, Miles Morales, Spider-woman y regresa Morlun. Siempre es bueno ver al que, en mi opinión, es uno de los mejores villanos de Spiderman. Eso sí, no regresa como un antagonista como en otras ocasiones, sino como... ¿Un aliado?

Tenemos la introducción de Shathra, de quien aún no nos han dicho cuál es la razón para terminar con el spider-verse y mucho menos porque está convirtiendo a los amigos de Peter en sus enemigos potenciales (ya vimos la conversión de Spider-noir, Spider-Gwen y Spider-punk). Aún así estoy ansiosa por leer el siguiente número:)

This was, frankly, kind of exhausting to read. Way too many different Spider-People involved and the story goes to some odd places. I guess if you'd been introduced to all these characters before and knew who they were, maybe your experience would be better, but I'm not that far into the weeds with Dan Slott and his prior runs on this title. The art is good, though I have seen better. Everyone talks about Mark Bagley as if he's the second coming or something--he's a decent artist, but nothing special as far as I'm concerned. At the very end, Spider Boy is introduced, which was kind of what drew me to this in the first place.

Το σενάριο του Dan Slott καταφέρνει διαρκώς να κρατάει το ενδιαφέρον των αναγνωστών/-τριών του με την καλοδουλεμένη πλοκή, τις ευφυείς σεναριακές ανατροπές και την εμβάθυνση σε χαρακτήρες που σπάνια έχουν πρωταγωνιστικό ρόλο. Εξάλλου, ο Slott ήταν ο ιδανικός σεναριογράφος για μία τέτοια ιστορία (η οποία εντάχθηκε στο εκδοτικό πλαίσιο του εορτασμού για τα 60 χρόνια του Spider-Man), αφού έχει συνδέσει το όνομά του με τον χαρακτήρα και ως εκ τούτου γνωρίζει σε βάθος το αραχνο-σύμπαν και τους χαρακτήρες του. Ειδικά στο δεύτερο μισό του τόμου, όταν ο Slott αποφασίζει να αναδιηγηθεί την origin ιστορία του Peter Parker, γίνεται εμφανής η εμπειρία του και η σύνδεσή του με τον ήρωα, τον οποίο τιμά για το ισχυρό αίσθημα ευθύνης που τον χαρακτηρίζει, ακόμα κι όταν δεν ακολουθεί την παραδοσιακή του διαδρομή. Μάλιστα, η συνεργασία του Slott με τον Mark Bagley, έναν δημιουργό – θρύλο των ιστοριών του Spider-Man, αποτέλεσε μία αξιοπρόσεκτη είδηση εξαρχής. Οι δυο τους συνεργάστηκαν για πρώτη φορά, κι όταν ρωτήθηκε γι’ αυτή την προοπτική ο Slott δήλωσε ότι νιώθει τιμή και ανυπομονησία για το αποτέλεσμα, καθώς οι δυο τους είναι «δύο τύποι που ζουν για να διηγούνται ιστορίες του Spider-Man, που αν μας κόψεις θα κυλήσει Spider-Man από το αίμα μας». Πράγματι, το σχέδιο του Bagley είναι υψηλού επιπέδου, καταφέρνοντας να αποτυπώσει με ζωντάνια τη δράση, τα horror στοιχεία ενός ιδιόμορφου zombie apocalypse και την αντίθεση του πραγματικού κόσμου με το ανατριχιαστικό σκοτεινό περιβάλλον της Μεγάλης Φωλιάς της Σάθρα.

COLLECTS SPIDER-MAN (2022) #1-7

Dan Slott is one of my favorite "Spider-Man" writers, and this series marks his return to regularly writing my favorite character. Slott also created the Spider-Verse, so it is fitting that his new run starts with a multiversal story. Even though I liked this book, I found the early issues to be less exciting than where things ended up. The last few issues of this collection were really solid.

SPOILERS:

I didn't know he was gone, but I was very happy to see the return of Kaine.

I'll start this review by saying I haven't read a Spider-Man comic since I was a kid in the early 90s.

What did I just read? This was HORRIBLE! The amount of characters involved was just absurd, for starters. It was blatantly obvious they were for the most part created by the writer of this story ... most likely in hopes of getting paid royalties for their future appearances. 95% of aforementioned characters were one dimensional and pointless.

The story itself was a rushed mess. Bad writing. Painful dialog. Mediocre art.

Overall - 1/5

"I DON'T THINK YOU ALL UNDERSTAND HOW BAD THIS IS. SHE'S SINGING HER REPRISE IN A MINOR KEY."
- Web-Weaver, showtune officianado, critiquing the (now evil) Spider-princess' vocal technique.

Issues one through four were crap. Issues Six and seven wrap it all up with a semi-damp, Luke warm, meh! A waste of Mark Bagley's talent.
But, issue five magnificently explores an alternate backstory for Silk and Peter Parker. Loved it!
Overall, it is pointless. One really solid issue before a limp ending. Aside from Gwen, Miles, and Ham, I've had enough Spider-verse. Two stars.

Man, what a great self-contained big beast of a Spider-verse tale. You definitely need to be a long time Spider-man reader to get the most out of this book, but for those of us familiar with all the characters and concepts, this one is a blast. It got Spider-men/women of all shapes and sizes, big stakes, shifting main characters, and a satisfying conclusion. It's got the right Spider-man tone and it is just a great Spider-verse read. Excellent work by Slott and the always number one Spider-man penciller Bagley.

Sometimes I just like to pick up a random book hoping that my lack of prior knowledge won't be too much of a detriment to the ongoing story. In this case there were some characters I wasn't really familiar with but since it's listed as "Volume One" it did enough work to make sure I wasn't entirely lost.

It felt more like the conclusion of a story rather than the beginning of a new one, but it was fine.

This was a really lame and disappointing end to the "trilogy" of Spider-Verse events (it's only a trilogy so Marvel can make it sound better to milk as much out of this comic event as possible). While Spider-Geddon was pushing it but still rather fun, this was just bland and bringing back Shathra, another villain from the JMS run kinda makes me think they're going to try and drag all they can about that phenomenal run. Issue 5 in this was the only one that felt inspired and above average. Read it for completion I guess, but don't go in with high hopes.

Great first issue, but the story eventually becomes just piles and piles of Spidermen and Women sort of floating in limbo fighting an Evil Spider Queen.

Ultimately, I don't regret reading this but could have been more grounded and less just floating through limbo worlds.

Art is fantastic though! 3 or 4 stars it was a tough call for me.

As much as I enjoy Dan Slott as a comic writer, I do think it's probably time to let go of the spider-verse storylines. They do start to feel a bit repetitive after a while, and this volume felt that way by the end. Though the sort of alternate timeline thing with Peter Parker was interesting; I liked that piece of the story. And the art was pretty good overall, too!

A decent read, the spiderverse has always been interesting, though a little over played recently imo. The book covers a lot of ground with a lot of characters and for someone who isn’t crazy knowledgeable about all the other spiders aside from the main ones, it still is pretty easy to follow and not get lost or confused. While not as strong as the more focused spidey stories still a fun read.
