Ultimate Spider-Man, Volume 5: Public Scrutiny

2007, Brian Michael Bendis

4.9/5

This fifth volume, continuing what was the flagship title of Marvel's Ultimate line, carries on with modernizing nuances of classic Spider-Man stories. In this one, a crook in a Spider-Man costume is dragging the real Spider-Man's name through the mud by committing robberies and other heinous crimes around town. Could he be Peter's biggest threat yet since becoming Spider-Man? This one also (while I can't say how well, since I've not read the original) adapts the death of Captain Stacy, Gwen Stacy's father. The art remains the perfect style for the action packed, fun style of the story. Again, as with past volumes I've taken the time to review, not my favorite comic book art ever, but still damn solid. I'd recommend this one to fans of Spidey and those wanting a great superhero read.
