Product Description:
One of the most ruthless villains in the history of the Marvel Universe - the fan-favorite Carnage - gets the Ultimate treatment! And though young Peter Parker has proven himself time and time again on the field of battle, can even he hope to defeat this heartless killing machine? Also, a bizarre occurrence brings Spider-Man and Wolverine together for the weirdest team-up in super-hero history! As the two struggle to get to the bottom of this mystery, their lives literally unravel. Why are both heroes too concerned with their own lives to work together? Plus: Johnny Storm realizes that despite his new flame powers and fame on the horizon, he still doesn't have a high-school diploma. And where does the young New Yorker enroll? Why, none other than a certain Queens high school that also counts one Peter Parker - Spider-Man - as a student. Collects Ultimate Spider-Man #60-71.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - YEAH!
Still great! Some brute stuff in this one and great new twsits to the story.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The death of Gwen Stacy in the Ultimate Spider-Man universe
Overall, "Ultimate Spider-Man" is my favorite Spider-Man comic book right now. It has been interesting to see how writer Brian Michael Bendis, penciler Mark Bagley, and inker Scott Hanna has altered familiar plot lines and characters, which is why I think veteran Spider-Man fans get to enjoy these stories more than newbies.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good, but no classic
Ultimate Spider-man 6 is another fine collection of the comic, but it felt a little weak. The Carnage story was a prequel, not the real thing (I am guessing).

My guess is that the "real" Carnage will appear in the future, something the story definitely sets up.
There are some good parts in this edition, ... Read More
