This was so good and starts with the coming of Spider-man 2099 in this timeline and the drama that follows as he is trying to save his grandfather Tiberius Stone but the drama with Alchemax and the end of Horizon is approaching and Spidey is stuck there and so he has to deal with that and fight this 2099 version and other personal troubles in college and the first steps towards Parker Industries and what is with gf troubles?! Plus the coming of Stunner his ex GF and finally something with Anna m...
I didn't love this one. Maybe my lack of knowledge about Spider-Man 2099. It just ended up feeling like the thing Marvel does about throwing characters together instead of telling an interesting story inside that world.
Has anyone time traveled in a fictional story, EVER, and then returned to say, "That was, all in all, a good idea"?No.Time travel, we're lead to believe, never works out. Shit's disappearing, we decide to make evil robots that are not only killing us but designed to look like demon skeletons for good measure. The best outcome is that you come home horribly scarred because, sure, you did manage to avoid having sex with your own mom, but will you ever look at her the same after encountering her as...
The roller-coaster ride continues, as Spidey 2099 drops by from the future, Horizon Labs implodes, Otto Octavius defends his dissertation, and his old flame Angelina Brancale comes out of her coma to confront the man she holds responsible for the death of her beloved Otto: Spider-Man. But wait, her beloved Otto now is Spider-Man... Much like in the previous volumes, Dan Slott can be counted on to deliver the twists and turns that move the story into the craziest, silliest, zaniest direction poss...
Not so superior this time but still enjoyable. This TPB edition collects issues #17-21 from the title of “Superior Spider-Man”.Creative Team:Writers: Dan Slott Illustrators: Ryan Stegman & Giuseppe Camuncoli DAYS OF FUTURE P...WAIT!!! Proof?! Legal means?! Bah! Fortunately, these things have never concerned any Spider-Man. Myself included! The superior journey of Otto Octavius, living inside the body of Peter Parker continues.This fourth volume, Necessary Evil, is an enjoyable reading bu
Boy, oh boy, that was a bit of a frustrating read to go through. So, basically, The Superior Spider-Man meets Spider-Man 2099 because why the heck not, am I right?I'm still not sure what exactly happened in this volume, but all I know is it was just a setup for the spider-verse event, which to that I may say: way to ruin a good run.In short it wasn't terrible, but definitely not superior..6/10
I have to say, this one wasn't up to the usual standards of this series. That being said, I think it was bound to happen, and I don't fault Slott. I might just have had it so good for so long that eventually I wasn't going to be in love with a volume.So what gives here?Spider-Man 2099 comes back in time to save something in the future (that being his father, who's actually his arch enemy in the future...ya. OK.)I had never come across him before, but I did know of him. I thought the suit looked
After all the nonsense of the Marvel Events Age of Ultron and Infinity, time rifts have started occurring leading to a 90s character being sent back to our present - that’s right, bitheads, Spider-Man 2099 is back! Meanwhile, Otto must deal with his old flame, Angelina Brancale/Stunner as she emerges from her coma to avenge her beloved Otto’s death against Spider-Man! What the shock, you say, Spider-Man 2099? Yeah, I’m not a big fan of the character, and the whole time-travel thing is really pla...
This is just a really great story arc!My only real issue comes down to a personal preference, I am not a huge fan of anything Spiderman 2099, I just don't enjoy it. Luckily, that whole time travel saga only lasts a few issues.This volume had one of the best moments ever when Otto-Spidey runs into Black Cat. There's no time for quips or pussy footing around, he's got places to be...It was hilarious! Aside from being a little tongue in cheek it really reminds the reader that this Spidey isn't our
Couple of interesting storylines here, including the Return of Spider-Man 2099! Whoever the hell that is...I liked the future Spidey, but since I had no idea he had ever left, I was not thoroughly excited to see him return. However, he played a large role in the overall time-ripping-apart thing, and he wasn't the worst new character I've ever seen. Like Sesana mentioned in her review, the faux future cursing was dorky, but not impossible to ignore. He seems like a real d-lister, but apparently h...
Still enjoybale even if the time travel issues were a bit stupid. Still having fun
The Otto as Spider-Man story continues and this time it's got the Spider-Man of 2099 along for the ride! Marvel has really been laying on the time travel/alternate reality stories lately, and it may have finally caught up with them. Or, at least, Spider-Man. The future is starting to break down and if Spider-Man 2099 doesn't do something about it, he will be erased from existence! Of course the only way to stop this is to travel back to the present, but things don't go to smoothly between him an...
If you're on the fence about the Superior Spider-Man concept, for the love of God don't start here. Unless, of course, you're a fan of Spider-Man 2099. You'll probably like this trade better than I did. While there are some very good scenes in here, the Spider-Man 2099 stuff was just a miss for me. Maybe it's because I never read the character and really couldn't care less that he was in the book. Maybe it was because I found his "futuristic" cursing deeply annoying. Bithead? Jammit? Ugh. I woul...
Trouble at Horizon Labs you say? Oh dear! SpideyOck has a little challenge on his hands - threats to his amazing technologies, and oversight he probably never would've liked even as Parker, let alone Otto. But wait! An interlude from...Spider-Man 2099?!?The trouble with time travel stories is, the writers think they need to explain the consequences of any misstep in "The Timeline" in excruciating detail. So we get treated to what is inevitably confusing, complex and unnecessary dialogue/VoiceOve...
17 - In 2099, time is coming unraveled and that time period's Spider-Man comes back to the present to fix things. Meanwhile, Horizon is taken over by Allan Chemicals, the precursor to the Alchemax of Spider-Man 2099's future. Also, stuff happens with Peter.Slott's definitely a fan of the Spider-Man mythos since he digs up Spider-Man 2099 and Liz Allan here. It was a fairly packed issue.18 - The present and future collide when Spider-Man 2099 meets The Superior Spider-Man!Freeing himself from P...
3.5 stars.Even when I'm not blown away by a particular volume of this series, it's still interesting because the status quo is always in flux. Peter/Ock's job, his doctoral thesis, his war on crime, and his internal struggle with becoming a psychopath are all fascinating to watch.
I read the comic books Superior Spider Man #16-20. The surprises keep on coming it's future Spider-Man vs Superior Spider-man! I you will not believe your eyes when Superior meets Black Cat for the first time! On a roll, you can see why Marvel were OK with Superior supplanting Parker for as long as he did! 8 out of 12
Dan Slott has been tearing up the track with Superior Spider-Man since issue 1. Superior Spider-Man: Necessary Evil is the first pit stop this title has taken since the start. Slott, Stegman, and Camuncoli still deliver a first-rate collection with Volume 4, but it is probably my least favorite so far. Spider-Man 2099 makes a guest appearance and has a run in with Spidey. (view spoiler)[Otto doesn’t have the have the advantage of Peter’s memories after deleting him from his brain in the last t...
Alas, poor Peter Parker, I knew him well, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy, yet the worst luck ever…! With Dr. Octopus getting rid of the last vestiges of Parker’s conscience and memories in the last volume*, he is now totally in control of Spider-Man and he's only nominally Peter Parker. Superior Ock is in the driver’s seat. He’s running the Spider-show so……get ready to get bit in the ass, Superior Spider-Man.First, Spider-Man of the future is on hand and he’s here to...
Peter Parker is no more, but has left his lesson of “great power comes great responsibility” for her adversary, Dr Otto Octavius, who has taken control of Peter’s youthful body. That said, the man formerly known as Doc Ock still has some of that sinister ego, even when he is donning the Spidey suit. This volume very much explores that side of the Superior Spider-Man, through two story arcs.The first arc brings back a Spider-fan favourite that is Miguel O’Hara AKA Spider-Man 2099. Due to anomalie...
