That one was quite a ride, reminding me of good old 70's spidey. Plotlines running all the time and quite some tention.

New Ways to Die is a hallmark of Spidey's Brand New Day era. It's also probably my own personal favorite Goblin story Dan Slott wrote. I think everything in this story comes together in the end. Not everything is paid off as the identity of the menace isn't revealed explicitly here but overall it's one in a long line of many classic Spider-Man stories Dan Slott wrote.And it's illustrated by John Romita Jr who is always in top form on Spider-Man.The issue with this story that has me cautious to r...

A bit perplexing when it’s obviously an arc in a wider series of stories, but it’s an admirable continuation of the soapy aspects of Spidey with the added pleasure of the psychodrama of the Osborn family at its most psychotic. Good fun

The New Ways To Die story by Slott and JRJr is really solid Spidey tale-telling. With great, classic art, lots of quipping, a little intrigue, and lots of A- and B-lost villains to keep Spidey busy.

This was a long one but quite fun!Its about Peter as he is settling into new jobs when he is attacked by Norman Osborn and his Thunderbolts and he has to dodge them and also deal with the drama that brings about Bullseye and others after him. There is the Eddie brock story where he becomes the Anti-Venom and its a big one and the best part where he and Spidey team up to take down Norman Osborn who has become Green Goblin again, Scorpion Venom meanwhile finding what Oscorp and Harry at large have...

I'm going to say one embarrassing thing here. You decide which of these things is that thing. Comic books ruled my life from age 8 until 14. Magic: the Gathering took over that role from 14-17. Comic books have once again become a prominent part of my life, and thankfully Magic has not. In all my years reading and collecting comics, I've never been a big fan of Spider-Man. Scratch that. I was at one time a very big fan of Spider-Man. During the McFarlane years. I just realized I associate comic

A really fun Spidey story with some great-looking art by Romita Jr. The story has a classic feel to it, with Peter still working as a photographer, fighting against Venom, Norman Osborn and his team of Thunderbolts, but it also has some interesting plot twists and intriguing new characters to mix it up a bit. This is the kind of storytelling I like to see in a Spider-Man book, and it looks like Dan Slott's earlier work on the character has some of that unique energy. It made me nostalgic for the...

As a Spider-Man story, it was OK, but way too much going on, too many characters. Norman Osborn is back and nutty as ever with his Thunderbolts and Law and Order in his pocket. Harry yawn, more Goblin types...Peter having issues working. However, there is one thing that elevates this right up there for me: the return of Eddie Brock. Having seemingly wasted away, he reappears and what ends up happening to him in this story is nearly as poetic and great as comics can be sometimes. For that alone i...

Every so often comic books have to reboot the storyline yet still keep in mind all continuity. Think about it, Peter Parker/Spider-Man has been a teenager since 1962. So the story has to be changed a little each time. This reboot, while being a soft reboot, will keep some of the old ideas and for an old fan may even turn some on their head. The gist of this book in particular is to create another character, Anti-Venom. Norman Osborn (Green Goblin) is head of the group known as the Thunderbolts,

So this is the volume where Slott covers the creation of Anti-Venom, which always felt a little silly but does make sense in the longer term as connected with Martin Li's fate as revealed later on. Throw in the Thunderbolts under the command of Norman Osborne and we have quite the interesting little story, especially given in this post Brand New Day world even Norman Osborn no longer remembers who Spider-Man really is. I really enjoyed that side of things and this story really plays to the stren...

Well, this was an intense story line, and the first BIG arc since Brand New Day started. This had almost everything you'd want. John Romita Jr's pencils, classic Spidey villains such as Venom and Norman Osborne, new villains like Freak, Menace, and Mr. Negative. And Marvel's newest symbiote, Anti-Venom--Eddie Broc.

Loved this story but man that steven colbert part at the end was so cringey damn wish I wouldn’t of read that. Love Anti venom he is a cool idea and looks bad ass.

Wow quite unexpected. World: The art is good. It's beautiful, characters are distinct just pure goodness. The world building really surprised me. With Slott coming unto the book the pieces have been iffy and I was wondering why people liked him so much. Well the world building here is much more focused and thought out the pieces from the past and the new ideas he brings to the world is very impressive and pulled me in. Story: The pacing was good, the drama was on point, the pieces of character h...

I'm reading this as part of my Venom/Carnage/Anti-Venom/symbiotes read-through of the spider-verse.This was a solid story that took a bunch of post-Civil War storylines and wove them around Peter Parker. We see him battle The Thunderbolts, as led by the former(?) Green Goblin, Norman Osborn. We get another glimpse of the new Venom/previous Scorpion. We even see the previous Venom, Eddie Brock get new powers thanks to the mysterious Mr. Negative, who is a newer, intriguing spider-villain(?)There'...

I'm not a fan of John Romita Jr's art. But this story was pretty good. The last arc I read from the Amazing Spider-Man was the Civil War tie-in. So I didn't really know much of what was going on in the history of this one. And I think that hurt my enjoyment of it a bit. But, Dan Slott is a good writer. There were many great moments. I just feel like, unlike Coming Home, this is one you want to go in with some context. Also, the art is not for me but many people love it for that reason.

When i was a kid, i used to like spider-man cartoon/anime but spider-man comics just never give me the same enjoyment as cartoon version did.

There are still some excellent Spider-Man stories out there, and this is definitely one of them.Kudos to Dan Slott.Thank you for the loan Oil City Library!

This is one of the earliest stories penned by Dan Slott, whose run (while definitely not my favourite run of the comic) contains some pretty great stories that I'd recommend, like Spider-Verse, Dying Wish, Ends of the Earth, and the spin-off title, Superior Spider-Man. New Ways to Die is up there with one of Slott's best stories. John Romita JR's art is amazing here, too. He's my favourite Spider-Man artist and NWTD features some of his best artwork on the title. This was a very fun story (featu...

One of the better stories Dan Slott crafted during his tenure on Spider-Man... but that's not saying a whole lot. The art is all that elevates this from average to exceptional; by this point JRJR was a seasoned spider-professional and it really shows.

Other than the origin of anti-venom this was a bit of a non event for me, filled in the blanks but definitely not slotts best work for me
