Product Description:
Spider-Man's Brand New Day continues, with more all-new adventures. Two new creative teams join the fray as writers Bob Gale (the Back to the Future trilogy) and Zeb Wells (Heroes for Hire) rock Spidey's world along with new artists Phil Jimenez (New X-Men) and Chris Bachalo (X-Men). Peter confronts major changes at the Daily Bugle while New York is under siege by a blizzard, and a new villain, Freak, rampages through town. If he hopes to stand a chance against this new threat, Spider-Man is going to have to enlist the help of his New Avengers teammates as well as the mysterious all-new adventurer Jackpot! Amazing Spider-Man #552-558.

Marvel's flagship character needs to be treated much ... Read More

Here, Spidey is up to his usual troubles, with a new villain called Freak being at the epicenter. Volume two of Brand New Day also marks the debuts of writers Bob Gale and Zeb Wells to the Brand New Day team, each of which make up what is great about this volume, and what is just plain bad. Gale provides some atrocious dialogue and corny captions, while ... Read More
