I thought that this one was pretty good. I'm still getting used to Immonen's drawings vs. Bagley's. They're ok for the most part, but I don't think MJ looks as cute.
The story-line feels like filler plots in-between major comic story arcs. But that's ok. Liz becoming Firestar was pretty cool; and this volume explains a lot of her past "mutant-phobia". I look forward to seeing where that goes.

I mean the artwork. When you read over 100 issues by the same artist, it's gonna be hard to transition to a new artist. Granted, any artist can draw pretty good superheroes - features are less defined since most of them are under masks and costumes and have certain really distinguishable features - but this is not the case with illustrations of real humans and that is where the new artist falls short.

As far as my taste in Marvel goes the characters alone in the TPB had me ready to buy it the second that it came out.

Ultimate Spider-man is a fantastic book series to begin with. Couple that with the fact that Bendis took one of the most notorious stories in comic book history and fixed it... well, you just need to read it. The volume contains what would take two trade paperbacks to hold and it looks good on a shelf. Of course it looks best next to the other eight volumes of the series, but you get what I mean.

The opening of the book is a nice change of pace from the recent clone craziness, but it all comes together for one of the most memorable USM endings ever.
Stuart Immonen's art is fantastic! It seems much more emotive than his work on Nextwave and suits the book to a T. He's even controlled his habit of giving women giant, bouffant, 80's hair [for the most part]. Personally, I like his stuff here better than Bagley's, which, while always being reliable and consistent, tends to sometimes lack ... Read More
