Spider-Verse

Brought as a gift!Great present

Dan Slott is a legend. He has taken Spider-Man by the horns and made it awesome.After the end of Superior Spider-Man and the Amazing Spider-Man came back, the stories got a bit dull, but with with the start of Spider-Verse, it picked up pace rapidly once again. This collects all the tie-ins to the event and reading them all you get the whole story. I think just reading the main event is good but there are lots of little off shoots which are important. I think the most important one is Scarlet Spider 1 - 3.This has tons of different Spider-Men ranging from Peter Porker "Spider-HAM" to a Japanese Spider-Man with a great big mech at his disposal (sorry I forget his name)The order of the book is not in chronological order (you can google it if you want). But it keeps the flow of each book rather than split them up all over the place and wonder whats going on. I think the way it is laid out in the book is just fine.This book is worth every penny.My 1 and ONLY criticism is "Why didn't you include the Edge of Spider-Verse" prelude mini series. I think the answer is obvious, to generate more sales for another book. Its a shame as that would have COMPLETED the series.Oh, and it's glued binding so there is a bit of gutter loss. Not tons. For £56 it would have been nice if it was stitched binding so the book lays flat. Not a massive issue though really.Still. 5 stars easily!!!

Unkillable energy vampires hunt down Spider-Men across the multiverse. Can our Spider-Man, and the many multiversal spiders, save the day? The plot is simple and straightforward. This is very much an epic, not a tale of your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.I finally got round to reading this, and I'm glad I did. I'm not up on the Spider-Man side of Marvel from the last, yikes, thirty odd years. It felt a bit impenetrable, with all the clones etc. I found this a great introduction to all things Spider-Man. I felt like there are so many spiders it didn't matter I didn't know their backstories. I definitely want to explore more Superior Spider-Man, he's great. The story is so simple and direct it works as a great framework for these spiders to weave their parts of the story.As i was reading this tale of a multiverse of hero variants and an unkillable threat I enjoyed the warm feeling of familiarity. I'd read this story over 40 years ago. And Slott read my mind, as early on we're introduced to Billy Braddock, Spider-UK and member of Roma and Saturnyn's Captain Britain Corps. Slott takes inspiration from John Thorpe, Alan Moore and Alan Davis' early 80s Marvel UK Captain Britain run, with its invention of Earth-616 and a corp of variants of one hero. In place of Moore's unrelenting terrifying The Fury we get Slott's The Inheritors family. As a family they help expand out the story, drawing in more spiders as characters, and explaining their motivations to each other. It's a very effective twist on this old story. The Inheritors aren't very interesting as villains, but that doesn't detract from a tale well told.The story is simple but the creative explosion here is in the spiders. They are great, not lazy "What if...?" style spider versions of other Marvel heroes. The closest to that is Billy Braddock as both a Captain Britain and a Spider-Man. He's such a neat addition, and as the exception his inclusion is fine (but then I'm much more of a Captain Britain fan than a spider fan, so I'm biased).The book is a half-way house between a chronological presentation of the issues and the best presentation of the story. Shoving the Team-Up, Scarlet Spiders, Spider-woman issues, etc, to the back was a good idea. There's a chronological list near the front if you want to read it in the "right" order. I used that to hop about this book, but found it didn't present the story so well. The exception is the Spider-Woman issues which would've been better slipped in between the main Spider-Man issues, and half of one Team-Up issue. All the rest kills the momentum of the central plot to not great purpose. It's the traditional Marvel cross-over approach after all. I should have known better!The art is almost entirely top draw generic Marvel. This is not the place for artistic invention. This is a book full of very similar spiders, so the main requirement here is clarity. The art is spot on in that respect.Spider-Verse is an enjoyable action romp, you won't regret reading it.

I paid for and I received brilliant service these are highly rated Samaritans

Just a warning to anyone who buys this brilliant comic bundle. Although there is a reading order list included in this bundle, bizarrely the comics don't follow the order of list. All the comics for this story are here, I don't know why but for some reason some early episodes are tagged on at the end of the bundle! The three part mini-series Scarlett spiders for example is at the end of the bundle as well as the cross title issues of spider-woman. I was annoyed to find this out after I'd bought them.

This was intresting brought for my son who dont like reading

I'd give it a better review if it wasn't for the fact that it is such mess of a collection, I returned mine as it was in an unreadble, illogical and annoying out of sequence order, Marvel have not done me wrong with big events in the past but with this it was too confusing.Instead of having the issues in the order you should read them they have listed the order but with no page numbers as to where each issue starts and some ridiculously hard to understand contents/issue listing at the start.It is a great story but I highly reccomend you wait for a better version to be released. I really hope Marvel do not do this with other stories as it half ruined the enjoyment for me, and the paperback does not contain half the stories this version contains so I still have not read the whole story, just the main bit I bought in paperback.Bad decision from someone at Marvel, slap them on the wrist and give them a different job to do, like dusting for cobwebs.

So I read a few reviews of this from complaining that the book is out of order with some of the issues.The main plot is intact and some of the extended stories are told afterwards. By extended I mean issues where they collect various Spider-Heroes to come help. The better of these were those starring Jessica Drew, and the 3 issues of Scarlet Spiders. I'm so mad they're replacing Kaine.So anyway, bought this for £40. Totally worth it. It is one of the best comics I have read in a while. Looking forward to Edge of Venomverse for sure.

Perfect to continue my books collection.

Chegou no tempo definido

The book was in perfect condition, no scratches or bends on the cover, and a great Spider-Man story all together. Would recommend if your Spider-Man fan.

Me encanto. Una buena historia y demasiados spiderman involucrados.No me gusto que no esta en orden los eventos. Esta primero la historia principal de todos los spiderman y despues estan las historias de cada spiderman y como llegaron a formar parte de la historia principal.

Ótimo arco mas a organização das edições dentro desse compilado poderia ser melhor
