So, I've sat down over the Spidey treasure I've mentioned here the last time I've updated my blog. It seems like the artist behind this issue or even the whole staff/editor behind it was aiming at giving this new Spidey line of story a more DC feeling to make it "have more superhero vibe" in it, the easiest example to point out is the squared heads style that was used here, Peter Parker looks more like Clark Kent than his old usual self.
Notice Peter Parker behind J. Jonah Jameson's bragging, a Clark Kent-esque design. |
Why the heck does the nano-tech suit which should be made of billions of nanobots is treated like a cloth in this comic book is a question that not even I, who simply adores that TV show, could give you. Plain stupid. I seriously rather they had chose to make this book a tale of how Peter got into Reed Richards' lab and "secretly borrowed" his Nanotechnology to create his new suit, I won't mind even if he wasn't depicted as a thief but as a person who came to Richards for help and that's how he got such an advanced level new costume (I seriously doubt that Peter is a person who can pull such a gadget on his own, even if in the last series he was a brilliant "science" [Neo-genetics = biology; that's not technological enough as programming, not even physics can help him with this] student) and also the proper training to be a pilot of a space shuttle after he explained Reed his need and plans to rescue John Jameson because he felt it was his responsibility for not stopping Venom and Carnage.
And what else is stupid, you may ask yourselves? Welp, HERE IN THIS BOOK/VERSION OF THE TALE Mary-Jane is actually aware of Peter's secret plan to return to his crime fighting persona, and she seemed to be cool with it despite she was all against the "costume slugfest" in the animated adaptation. "Great work", Marvel Comics, you clearly control and know by heart all your material/shit. In overall this whole comic book felt pretty "Cartoony" in comparison to the others of that very same volume I have glanced over.
The Flash Thompson scene left me in mixed feelings. On one hand, it was a touching scene and gave us some clue on Spidey's "test drive" of his new costume before stealing Solaris II; On the other hand the whole scenario where Flash will pretend to be Spider-Man and willed to fight crime using his believed-to-be-dead hero felt kinda stupid.
The ONLY GOOD THINGS I found on this comic book were the fight with Venom and Carnage on the launched Solaris I (great art in my opinion - felt like the episode in a way), and the fact we saw Peter didn't left Earth to hijack Solaris II without notifying Mary-Jane and his old beloved Aunt May.

Look at Flash Thompson's square head. |

EVEN THE FUCKING MORPHING WITH THE NANOTECHNOLOGY WATCH WAS TURNED INTO SOME STUPID "SUPERMAN EXPOSES HIS CHEST TO REVEAL THE COSTUME" SCENE.
