Amazing Spider-Man #49 Review: Fighting With No Conclusion
Much like this week's Batman #100, Amazing Spider-Man #49 is a "landmark" issue (if you add the old numbering this is #850, but they restarted it, so does that even count?) amounts to much ado about nothing as all the sturm und drang of a gigantic slobberknocker amounts to next to nothing being different than you'd normally assume.
There is a laundry list of talented people working on this issue. Still, the retrograde nature of this reset heavy storytelling leaves a "story" with no consequences, fighting with no conclusion, thunder with no lightning. Watching Peter Parker suffer is not enough to call this entertainment, and this degree of production budgets and values could be used in much better fashions. RATING: NO. JUST … NO.
