Ultimate Spider Man #3: Review (Comic)

by firman on October 15, 2009

Take what you know, and restart by turning on its ear. Then, when things get a bit ’long in the tooth, sending a wave of water to clean the palette, and start again. But is the new reality better? Six months later, and the life of Spider-Man is not all upside.

The good thing about Ultimate (Comics) Spider-Man # 3 and follows immediately after the previous issue, which means that there are leaps and bounds over time, or strange happenings unexplainable – well, except for that type Mysterio. Mysterio asked questions about the city that takes him all, not just a bit ’here and there, but the whole thing, and Kingpin out of the way – pushed out of the window to the streets later in number 1 – he is there to fill vacuum. I like how Brian Michael Bendis shape the character of Mysterio, a real mystery character whose powers we have not yet fully understood. We do feel that in its vaporous state he is able to use an air-born hypnotic drug to see what they want to see, but as he is able to do the things that makes the character seem really cool.

Unfortunately, his Schtick it’s not that original, Spider-Man and takes just moments to realize that the 80-foot giant spiders attacking center is not real, but rather it is an attempt by Mysterio to steal the reserve d ’gold. For years we’ve seen Bendis and his two artists, Peter Parker put through a series of fight scenes in an attempt to overthrow the evil, and for the most part, it all seemed trivial. Here, the fight is drawn so cinematically, that if the flow from frame to frame and page to page, and the layout of the horizontal panel on a double page allows you to forward the story.

Unfortunately, this is about as good as the art becomes. I understand the manga is all great, but in the pages of Ultimate (Comics) Spider-Man, which just falls flat. Personally, I think it’s a trick, it turns out to be an attempt to attract young audiences for a comic are probably already reading – is that if the children know where to buy comics in recent days. In some situations, the art works well, but the sharp nose, exaggerated expressions, and right out of the magazine scene in apparel pose that I wonder how long I will be able to stomach the art before calmly tell my comics owner of the shop that I’m dropping the series.

Beyond the plot surprises Mysterio, there are still a bit ’more to be held within the pages of this issue. While readers were shocked to compile between Gwen and Peter, is an even bigger surprise to see Mary Jane is the one who broke with Peter, who pushed him in that direction. My guess it has something to do with all those “I thought you were dead!” How could you do this to me!? Incident that occurred as the last series has concluded.
There’s also the issue of identity for how long will Peter Parker be kept secret, now that Johnny Storm is moving to the Parker family, transforming the residence in the Wayward Home for Lost and Missing superheroes. And with Jessica Jones pushing on MJ to dig, which is really behind the mask for the online journal of the school, things are going to come to a head and eventually blow up in his face by issue Marvel ten.

The biggest problem in deciding how to score this problem is the dividing line between writing and art. Bendis did a good job in processing history, and that the flow of words from the mouth of the character, of course, but the art style reduces everything because overeating done.
