It felt like it dragged on and on. Lady Kraven was pretty badass tho.

Yet another child of Kraven, introduced to exact revenge on Spider-Man for the events of a better story from decades ago. At least her design is leagues better than the Grim Hunter from the 90s, and at least the story being told here is more interesting (and far better paced) than last year's abysmal Hunted arc.

Kinda fun return to Kraven's Last Hunt, doesn't stand a chance next to that classic story

Kraven's daughter Ana took his name and decided to get revenge from Spider-Man, but she got the wrong target and Spidey borrowed Daredevil's costume to save the day, but it wasn't all easy when Vermin showed up.Pretty interesting set up but Ana was 12, she took on 2 grown man without any super power. That's got to be a bit preposterous. And Spidey only had 1 costume? It's a bit weak logic wise but nonetheless entertaining.

With a title like Kraven's First Hunt - hearkening back to the very memorable Kraven's First Hunt - you'd expect a great story. Unfortunately, what you get is a pretty simple main plot with a villain kidnapping the wrong guy thinking that he's Spider-man. The side plots are very slightly more interesting, though, detailing Peter Parker's relationship with his new room mate. It is unfortunate that this relationship treads the familiar ground of the room mate hating Spider-Man. We've seen that one...

This trade collects Amazing Spider-Man issues # 564-567 and material from Spider-Man: Brand New Day - Extra!!!.The first issue is a quick stand alone story told three times - by Spider-Man, Peter Parker's cop roommate Vin, and the villain Overdrive. Each has his own take on the day's events. Decent enough.The next three form the titular "Kraven's First Hunt." A young woman has taken the name of one of Spider-Man's most deadly foes, and is as determined to make the wall crawler a personal trophy

I read this years ago as single issues when they came out and vaguely recalled them being not too bad.A few days ago I bought this on a whim (Ebay, dirt-cheap...)Well, what can I say? I really enjoyed this relatively short volume (it contains only four issues of the Amazing Spider-Man series; a stand-alone story and this collection's titular three-parter)! These stories take place in the Brand New Day era when the book came out three times a month and was written by a "braintrust" that reworked

This was quite good.It starts off with the story between Spidey and Overdrive and the face off with Vin and then comes Mr Negative and he has to deal with the room mate problem but the big story comes when Ana Kravinoff, the daughter of Kraven abducts Peters room-mate Vin and so its upto Peter to rescue him and save his life while also sporting a new costume and what will their relationship be like once its over? Will Vin survive? And whats the origin of Ana?Its a great volume and does pretty we...

I like Guggenheim's Spider-Man, it's pretty fun!

Really Spider-Man only has one costume?His costume gets shredded in a fight and it's pristine again by the next day, but stick it on his roommate and Spidey has to go borrow one of Daredevil's costumes... (Who apparently not only has extra's but keeps one with eyeholes for some reason)Also really, the best reason you could come up with for Vin getting abducted was "I set you up as a decoy"? Really?*Edit* Having recently reread Brand New Day vol.2 I see why Spidey only had one costume left. Thoug...

Pretty terrible and disrespectful.World: The art is aight, it's nothing special and I don't really feel the sense of motion that a Spidey book should have...meh. The world building here is fairly bad and a disrespect on a classic character. I know Kraven's a hokey character but Kraven's Last Hunt is one of the better and more iconic stories for Spidey and building upon that you would think would be interesting and honoring that character. That's not the case here. Here we get a poorly executed n...

I'm sure most would say that five stars are one or two too many, but I've been binge reading Brand New Day and this was a tone changer the run needed--and it's a damn good story with incredible art from Phil Jimenez.

Fearful Symmetry: Kraven's Last Hunt is probably my favorite comic storyline. Ever. Everything about it is perfection. This feels like a cheap ploy to cash in that. Everything the original did right, this does wrong. The original made us feel sympathy for Kraven; this makes us feel nothing for Ana. The original used alternating points of view - Kraven's, Spidey's, Vermin's, MJ's - to enrich the story; this one just uses them for no apparent purpose. The original was built on years of history; th...

Started out just like Brand New Day but got easier to read by the end.

3.5 starsZippy and amusing Spider-Man book, perfect for reading on a winter afternoon with a cup of coffee.In the Rashomon-style opener (the action is presented from three different points of view), Spidey is pursuing carjacker Overdrive through the streets of the Big Apple while being alternately assisted / impeded by dedicated off-duty NYPD officer Vin Gonzales. (Gonzales is Peter Parker's roommate - he has no idea about Parker's secret identity.) Pleasantly heavy on both non-stop action and h...

This new Kraven character was rather underwhelming and the story crafted around her debut was only marginally interesting. I appreciated the complexity of Peter's policeman roommate but beyond that the story felt a little off tone-wise for one reason or another.

Read a bit of it in my local library before going to see the latest (at that time) Spiderman movie (Far from home) and then returned a few more times to finish it.Featuring an undeveloped but quite interesting female iteration of a classic comic book Spiderman villain, this is quite entertaining yet straight forward story with not too much depth.Her plan was overly flawed though, which although helped move the plot along it did underplay the effectiveness of her character as a worthy villain, es...

There's a new Kraven related to the old (dead) Kraven, but you barely learn anything about her. This story's more about Peter Parker (and Spider-Man)'s strained relationship with his roommate Vic. Kraven captures Vic, which only makes matters worse. Except for a few missteps (like bringing in Vermin to add onto the Kraven's Last Hunt homage), this is a good continuation of the Brand New Day saga. There are nice variation on the old tropes of a mistaken secret identity, Peter losing his costume,

Oh Spidey, how far you’ve fallen! I haven’t read a good Spidey story in forever... this is no exception! “Kraven” is barely even in it!

I'm a bit lukewarm on this one. It was a good but not great Spiderman story, I'm just not sure that it was a good successor to Kraven's Last Hunt. There were a lot of unanswered questions in the end and while having the plot with Officer Gonzales being mistaken for Spiderman and their subsequent confrontation in the hospital were great, that all could have been done just as well without the Kraven connection. The parts with Vermin felt tacked on and while I'm left wanting to know more about what...
