This is the best current ultimate run. This trade is obviously the beginning of the run and builds the world very well. I recommend the ultimates fix the world before this. And ultimate invasion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Are Comics Back?

F.C. · January 10, 2025

I've been a comic book reader since the 90's and have seen the industry go through ups and downs. I gave up on comics when the writers became too political and put their agendas above mythos and quality writing. The final straw for me was when Marvel decided to make Captain America a freaking Nazi. With that being said, I have kept up a little bit with my favorite writers, including Hickman. I have been a huge Hickman fan since his Fantastic Four run, though, I will admit, I was not a big fan of his X-men. I thought in his X-Men run, he went a bit too far with the world-building, and lost track of the characters. This Spider-Man series, however, so far, has me tentatively excited for Marvel comics again. It's just classic great story telling, and I think Hickman has done a superb job. Hickman can get wordy at times (though thankfully, not as wordy as Michael Bendis) but in this series, he has really kept it simple and clean. The world building in this Ultimate universe has not gone too far off the original Marvel Universe, while building on fresh ideas. I really enjoyed the relationships between this Peter Parker, his family, Uncle Ben, Jonah Jamison, and Harry Osborne. Hickman achieved bringing this Spider Man back to basics, capturing the nostalgia of what makes Peter Parker Spider Man such an endearing and beloved character while giving it a fresh take without blowing up the mythos. You can tell Hickman truly respects the characters and didn't want to obliterate the lore as so man current writers do in their hubris.

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect Spiderman for someone who grew up idolizing Spiderman.

A.C. · April 12, 2025

One of the best Spiderman comics I have ever read--and I have read a fair share of comics. I think what drew me in was how adult it was (not in NSFW way): the dialog is good, the art is really good, the characters are very interesting and are not flat like some of the characters in Marvel 616. I want this to be the main Spiderman--anyone can relate to him, esp. older nerds like me.

4.0 out of 5 stars A new way in to loving Spider-Man

S. · December 8, 2024

Spider-Man may be the only superhero I ever really followed growing up. And I’m falling in love with the character all over again. He’s fun and light. He’s witty and clever. He doesn’t take himself too seriously. And now he’s a dad, married endgame to MJ. It’s a really fun re-entry into an old classic and I’m excited to see where it goes next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Got the other half of the series in this printing.

Such a great book, I meant to get this at my local store but they sold out. Now I've parts 1 and 2 can't wait for Part 3 this fall.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Phenomenal, Fresh Take on Spider-Man

Z.J. · February 21, 2025

As a lifelong Spider-Man fan, I’ve read countless iterations of the character, but Jonathan Hickman’s Ultimate Spider-Man is something truly special. The story is original, bold, and absolutely phenomenal, breathing new life into the mythos while still respecting what makes Spider-Man great.Hickman has long been one of my favorite writers—his work on X-Men, House of X, and Secret Wars was groundbreaking, and he brings that same level of depth and world-building here. The storytelling is sharp, layered, and gripping from the very first page.And the artwork is absolutely stunning. Every panel is beautifully crafted, capturing the emotion, action, and energy of Spider-Man’s world in a way that makes it impossible to put down.This is exactly the kind of fresh, innovative storytelling I was hoping for. If you’re a fan of Spider-Man or Hickman’s work, this is a must-read. I can’t wait to see where this series goes next!

Um novo Homem-Aranha para um novo Universo Ultimate!

Se casar com a Mary Jane e finalmente se tornar pai! A arte de Marco Checchetto agrega mais dinamismo para história, tornando-a mais cativante. Algo que uniu o útil e mais agradável. Simplesmente ESPETACULAR!!!

Fresh spider man read

Great comic fun read. Shipping took a while, but can’t be helped. Highly recommend.

Cool and different

F.L. · December 22, 2024

I like it, it's a new take on spidey. No current entanglement to the main Marvel. I'm enjoying the ride while it's fresh.

Finalmente, Spider-Man

D. · January 21, 2025

Era da anni che gli appassionati dell’Uomo Ragno aspettavano una storia così, dove Peter non è solo un uomo miserabile, ha una famiglia, sa già perfettamente quali sono le sue grandi responsabilità, gli manca solo un grande potere.Stupendo.

Bendito Hickman.
