I probably don't get any respect for reading this one, but Marc Sumerak writes some a couple of nice two-part stories featuring mildly believable team ups. In one, Spider-Man gets de-aged (and re-aged through a pretty weak plot twist), and he teams up with Power Pack, Marvel's non-mutant kid heroes, to fight the Sandman. Then, they get back together to fight the third Spider-Man film's other villain, Venom.
Gurihiru's art is very clean, but not as expressive as Takeshi Miyazawa, who does Marvel's other "young Spider-Man" book, Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane.
I'd totally give this book to kids. Or dorks.

It was alright, but maybe it was a little small for me? Not sure if that's the right word but maybe I'm just remembering the show from the eighties too much?

Hey, Gurihiru's work is hella cute. ;)

The Power Pack have moved to the big city and Spider-Man is going to need help.
I remember the Power Pack when I was younger thinking how cool it was to see a team of kids with super powers taking on bad guys (and the dangers of drugs and other real word problems thanks to the Marvel PSA comics.) Now they are back in a new age and have moved right into Spider-Man's home town so it is only a matter of time before these overly ambitious children get involved in the affairs of something...sinister. Compiling the 4 issues of the mini series it is basically broken down into two dealing with the Vulture's new youth serum with some trouble from Sandman and in the next two cooks we see how sometimes fashion bites as a killer style turns the youngest of the Power Pack into a dangerous foe. By working together Spider-Man and the Power Pack will have to overcome the workings of evil before it is curtains for them all. Also note at the end of the book we see a couple of "Franklin Richards: Son of a Genius" comic stories which have a bit of a Calvin and Hobbes feel for art and at lest for the first story we see little Katie Power coming over to hang out with the young future god like boy. All in all this story like many of the Power Pack stories are generally written for younger people but if you love Spidey and nostalgia from this pint size heroes don't be embarrassed to pick up this little gem. :)

This was a quaint mini-series that gives us a more kid-friendly Spider-Man adventure with the help of the Power Pack because of course. I have no idea when this book is set, but somehow Peter is still with MJ, Aunt May is alive, and Doctor Octopus is still himself (if you get my drift). But just roll with it and embrace these adventures.
It was just a little weird that we didn't get Franklin Richards involved in this book beyond the Calvin and Hobbes-style shorts at end (I still strongly associate him with the Power Pack), but it is what it is.

This is 5-star if you're looking for something for kids, by the way. :)
