Reminiscent of the old Marvel Team-Up series which ran for a dozen or so years back in the 70's and 80's -- Spider-Man, usually the headliner, would partner with another random member of the Marvel universe for a one-issue story, though once he memorably / oddly co-starred with the Not Ready For Primetime Players, the original cast of TV's Saturday Night Live, when Stan Lee was a guest host (ah, the 70's !!!) -- My Friends Can Beat Up Your Friends was a fun, action-oriented if sort of slight vol...

It’s got a fun title – My Friends Can Beat Up Your Friends – but Avenging Spider-man is a strangely maudlin book. This is Spider-man’s team-up series where he gets paired with another character and has an adventure with them. In this book it’s Red Hulk, Hawkeye, and Captain America respectively.The Spider-man/Red Hulk storyline takes up the first three issues and is unfortunately the worst of the bunch. Mayor Jameson gets captured by some moloids and is dragged beneath New York City where it tur...

Issues four and five in here are lovely little character pieces that I thoroughly enjoy and are one of the things I want out of a monthly team up book.

I was entertained but not blown away. The tone of this book was very light and humorous even for Spider-man. The focus of this series seems to Spider-man's relationships with other heroes, primarily other Avengers. The main story line in this volume featured Mole Man and was actually handled in a really interesting way and even though I'm not a huge Red Hulk fan I enjoyed the team up.I have very mixed feelings about the last issue in this volume in which Spidey tries to bond with Cap over their

These are great, fun comics. Good art, good dialogue and they even have strong character work.

I’m actually a science nerd. 🕷

It was good. Liked it. Some great artwork in it. Especially after the first 3 issues. The Story with Red Hulk was ok. Classic Spidey being Spidey. Then we get a story with Hawkeye. Nice touch although a bit....well if you've been reading recent any of the most recent Hawkeye series, well it's like the character is going against his own personality and it seems weird, after the whole "revamp" of the character. And last but not least, the best story of the volume, is Spidey teaming up with Captain...

Spider is dealing with being the member of several superhero teams and is worried about spreading himself too thin but also has to deal with his own personal baggage as a solo hero when joining a team of established heroes.It was okay: I just didn’t feel as though I was reading anything that hadn’t been written several times before. I mean, we know that Spider-Man is a loner that desperately wants to belong but his own wisecracking nature prevents that at times. Good fun, but slight.

This is a fun story which features Spidey proving his worth to the Avengers. The stories contained are basic but they go a long way to show that just beyond his skills Peter really brings a lot to the team. It’s a decent romp with a variety of action and heart. Exactly what you want from a Spider-man story!

I *love* the last story (#5) in this volume -- sometimes we just need to be reminded that it's okay to have a specific passion in life, even if you "should" outgrow it. It was so, so charming.

The Red Hulk story was the better of the 3 stories. The other 2 were pretty average but overall was worth picking up.

Nice. Almost like little character studies of everyone but Spider-Man, but you get the Spider-Man stuff through the way he interacts with other characters. This would be a really good one to try out if you're just dipping a toe in the Marvel waters.

SO MUCH FUN! the hulk+spidey team-up (of sorts) was really fun. #4 brought a nice insight on clint's character, which i think is great for people who don't necessarily follow him that much. absolutely loved #6 (obviously) since steve is my fave and seeing him be sort of dorky with peter was super sweet.

Spider-man must be really fun to write. The constant jokes really make this series enjoyable. Also it's really cool that it's basically Spidey and a different hero every issue (or every 2). I also LOVE the art so far.

The last story of the bunch made me smile.

I really liked #1-3, the storyline about Subterranea, but really disliked #4 and #5. #1-3 has good art, an amusing wisecracking wallcrawler, and a good and fun plot. #4 features a really dislikable version of Hawkeye and art by Greg Land. At least there weren't any women in the story so I didn't have to see Land's porn faces. #5 featured a version of Captain America I also don't recognize or like. If not for #4 and 5, I would have given this a higher rating.

If you'd like to read Spider-Man but are unsure of where to start, Avenging Spider-Man collects light stories that are either one or two issues long and are easy to pick up and enjoy without much knowledge of the character. Most of the issues try very hard to be fun and give Spider-Man opportunities to make jokes, which will either be fun or slightly annoying. I went between the two feelings in these issues at various times. The last couple of issues also let you see Spider-Man interact or build...

Great fun spider man stories that pair him with interesting characters. It's odd sometimes seeing characters act in ways that they wouldn't in an Avengers title, but part of the Spider-Man charm is being a little goofy.
