Reviews for Marvel's SPIDER-MAN

[Mario Santangelo · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

a good novel. is the prequel to the videogame from 2018, but is not really a necessary read, because the game simply doesn't acknowledge the major events in this book, and only serves to explain a few small things, like how JJJ got his podcast show, why Peter and MJ broke up (which Peter seems to have forgotten in the game), and how spidy and Yuri Watanabe met. leaving that aside. this is a great spider-man novel. the author perfectly understands spider-man type of stories and his sense of his sense of humor.

The nephews choose this one for a car ride. They opinion is that the movies are better. This was too much build up for their minds. Now this story was written for adults and not kids/teens, but we had high hopes. I think they will like this better with a bit of age and life experience. For no it was just too much. DNFed at 10%
