I also agree, PAD, that the art in this book is pretty darned good. I haven’t always loved Mr. Land’s work in the past, but it worked well for me here. The two of them are transported to the Valley of the Flame. Enter Moon Boy and Devil Dinosaur (and does Devil Dinosaur look fearsome? Hell yes.). Banner, now in possession of the Norn stone, is captured by a tribe Moon Boy calls the Killer Folk who plan to sacrifice him to Long Legs, a giant spider. Enter the Guilt Hulk, another Banner persona, who lays waste to Long Legs. The sky opens and energy tendrils ensnare Spidey and Hulk, transporting them to Lemuria, the realm of the Deviants and Warlord Kro. Kro gives them a tour and a history of the stone in Hulk’s possession and how its origin rests with the immortal space gods, the Celestials. Enter a mess of Eternals and the return of Karnilla who steals the stone and departs. Spidey, Hulk, and the Eternal Icarus give chase. Just when Karnilla seems triumphant, here comes Zuras, Leader of the Eternals and one last guest star, All-Father Odin, who puts Karnilla in her place and crushes the stone. Es interesante ver a Mysterio porque no es un villano que usen mucho, pero al final es sólo un recurso, lo venden como alguien patético y cuando buscan que te lo tomes en serio, es demasiado tarde.

SPIDER-MAN 2099, is facing a hostile takeover – of his own body! Kron Stone, the VENOM of 2099, wages an all-out assault on Alchemax, and the PETER DAVID AND GREG LAND DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN! After three sense-shattering series, Peter David, Greg Land, Jay Leisten and Frank D’Armata – the entire SYMBIOTE SPIDER-MAN crew – RETURN! This time, they’re taking Spider-Man down the road less traveled to the supremely psychedelic CROSSROADS DIMENSION! In their most ambitious series yet, the SYMBIOTE team puts Peter Parker and his alien costume on a collision course with none other than THE INCREDIBLE HULK, in a story set just before Peter David’s landmark run on the Hulk series!

Symbiote Spider-Man’s not bad. It’s a run of the mill Spidey mini-series that kind of only exists so that Marvel could put out a story featuring Spidey and Mysterio while the Spider-Man: Far From Home hype train was in full swing. But Mysterio’s also in the main Amazing Spider-Man book, which is much better than this, so again I ask…why did this exist? This sequel to David and Land's original Symbiote Spider-Man mini-series jumps forward a few months in comic time; Peter's still wearing the Venom symbiote suit, and this time runs into the Hobgoblin. What could be a straight forward Spidey story instead becomes a reality-warping What If? when the Goblin teams up with Baron Mordo to re-write all of time and space. Oops. Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse ended with a tease of Spider-Man 2099, who is to feature prominently in the upcoming Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. And the character's co-creator Peter David has written a comic book spinoff that Marvel will be publishing in August, as part of his run of past-set Symbiote-linked stories, Symbiote Spider-Man 2099.

only hope of stopping him lies with the power awakened by a top-secret project gone terribly wrong. What must Miguel sacrifice to seal the bond Ultimately, I enjoyed the characterizations of Peter, Quentin, Felicia, and May even if they seem to be more modern versions of the characters than what I think we’d have seen in ’84. Being able to explore a more nuanced view of these characters than what was being presented in those days will be interesting. Symbiote Spider-Man so far has been a little underwhelming to me, but this story was kind of fun as a "banging your action figures together" kind of thing. Peter David assembles a motley crew to fight together and quip at each other, like, a lot.

Success!

Construye sobre los conflictos de Spidey con la gata negra, el traje y la tía May para darnos una historia que busca resolver algunos de esos conflictos pero no los resuelve porque deberían de resolverse en la historia principal, así que al final del tomo sientes que no se avanzó nada y que el personaje sigue en el mismo sitio en el que estaba al principio, y tiene sentido porque ese personaje protagoniza el tomo dos todavía.
