Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I only wanted the Straczynski stories
I was really disappointed when I saw they included the Fiona Avery stories in this collection. I read them when they came out as individual issues and I hated them so much I threw them out so they weren't taking up comic space. The dialogue was forced and it was so cause focused rather than story focused. I even decided not to buy the trade because they included the non-Stracynski issues... Bad decision by Marvel to include those issues.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Impressive, read them all
Through reading these and other recent Spider-Man books (25 issues worth) one thing comes to mind: even through bad stories, Spider-Man is still the man.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Straczynski and Romita Jr. send Spidey towards issue #500
"Amazing Spider-Man: Unintended Consequences" is the fifth trade paperback volume representing the work of writer J. Michael Straczynski and artist John Romita, Jr. that has revitalized America's favorite web-spinner. Collected here are issues #51-58 of "The Amazing Spider-Man," which starts in the aftermath of Mary Jane's decision to return home with Peter.

The first four issues deal with a new character, called Digger. In 1957 there was a gangland hit in Las Vegas, and now, after a ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Straczynski Keeps Dishing It Out
I've been following Straczynski's run on "Amazing Spider-Man" ever since the first book caught my eye in the graphic novels rack. This is his fourth volume, and he shows no sign of slowing down. Quick summary: Peter and his wife have just reunited, but -- as these things tend to happen in their world -- a reincarnated gangster shows up in New York, bent on getting revenge on the now-elderly Mafia boss who killed him fifty years before. On again, Straczynski shows himself to be one of the most capable ... Read More
