4.5 stars! Really enjoyable even without knowing the wider universe, but the changes in art styles between comics was annoying.
The best Silk story I've read so far, sees Silk getting mixed up with the Peter Parker, Spider-Man and the Goblin King! Cindy Moon's search for her family members, sees her working with the Black Cat. After reading this volume, I had a lot more hope for the Silk books. 7 out of 12
Good is bad for business.I read this in a few hours and couldn't help reminisce about the 90s Spider-Man cartoon!Marvel Comics satisfies the teenager inside all of us. Silk is basically the teenage-Caucasian-version of Spider-Man! In a girls -world(New York), everyone has secrets. Thankfully, Cindy Moon is seeing a psychiatrist! Peter Parker is now CEO, meanwhile J. Jonah Jameson (JJJ) looks like he's about to retire!
A good story marred by sub-par indie art. The artist in the book changes with each issue. It's at best serviceable but often just terrible depending on what artist is filling in. Robbie Thompson has given us the traditional Peter Parker archetype. Cindy Moon constantly overextends herself as she tries to balance her job, friends, search for her parents, and go undercover as Silk.
So Silk is something I never really read before. I knew who she was, kind of? I haven't read Spider-verse but I gathered the Spider-family (similar to another Family from a different company) came from it. Except instead of everyone being brooding sexy heroes we have a lot of lip-smacking heroes who all have similar features to Peter. Silk is now part of the 616 and guess what? She's working undercover for Shield (or mockingjay) working with Blackcat to take down the Goblin Nation! Sounds exciti...
I would have given it 5 stars if Veronica Fish was the artist in every issue. I did not like the other artist's style of art.
YEAH, SILK! Why are the lady Spider-people so much more interesting than Spiderman? This was fun, and I enjoyed cameos by Mockingbird, Vol. 1: I Can Explain and Jessica Drew.
reread in june 2019; four stars ∗ i took half a star because some of the artwork was just.. weird. but other than that i loved this continuation! silk is so kick butt and i absolutely adore cindy’s personality. can’t wait to read more!!
SCORE: 70 | BTRIGGERS: n/aREVIEW: This volume starts off as an attempt at deception which sadly falls flat for me due to the fact that Silk's status as a hero never actually seems to be in question based on what we have seen so far from her. Other than the back and forth double agent shenanigans, there are some fun ideas and strange goblin people to keep us entertained. I particularly enjoy how protective and caring JJJ is over Cindy, and I would like to see it grow into a father-daughter like d...
Argh...I hate multiple artists...and fucking Secret Wars.Argh. I hate Secret Wars, I also expressed my displeasure of it with the way Silk Vol 0. ended and now, yeah we get a choppy start on something super important because of it.World: I hate the multiple artists. I'll be honest, 80% of the reason I enjoy this series is because of Stacey Lee's art, without it it's just an average book. Wow, the art that replaces here for these couple of issues is UGLY. Normally I don't say this but with the dr...
I've already vented about how little I like this character, so I won't repeat myself. This volume lost marks from me by propagating the Black Cat's return to crime but I've ranted about that elsewhere too.This volume was a slight improvement on the last one and got better as it went along. It's still got a ways to go before I'd add it to my favourite comicbooks list, though.
I loved this (but not a fan of the inconsistent art-style).Cindy Moon is one of my favourite characters ever now!I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series!
It could get 3/5, if it wasn't for the utterly ugly artwork by Tana Ford...
This is still a really good book, and I still adore Cindy as a character. But this is another book that suffered terribly from the post-Secret Wars gap. The time skip just wasn't that kind to this book, and it meant we had to miss out on at least one important and very personal scene, when Cindy reunites with her brother. Thompson worked around it fairly well, I think, and I did like the concept of Silk working undercover for SHIELD in return for them using their resources and connections to try...
Like this character and this premise; wish the writing were a little more polished; also 3 artists for six issues is A LOT, they need to stabilize that
Since I'm kind of a graphic novel binge, I thought it was time for me to read Silk's story arc. This was actually fascinating and while it may not be the best it was certainly worth the read. Cindy Moon aka Silk is struggling with some anger issues of her own and tries to balance three lives all at once. Her alter ego's mundane life, her S.H.I.E.L.D alliance life, and undercover job. She's a mess but an endearing character.
Interesting addition to the Spider-man mythos with a different intriguing character. Good story and art. Recommended
Really good series with simple art (in a good way) and dialogue reminiscent of Peter's earlier days. Silk, as a character, has been developed well and this continues through volume 1, setting up an exciting next volume. Recommended for fans of Spider-Heroes!
I didn't enjoy this as much as enjoyed Vol. 0 but I still want to know more about Silk and I still don't like the change of illustrators in between each chapter/issue. The thing that's keeping me going is that I've heard some great feedback about the latest volume that's out so I'm hoping the story becomes stronger and that the illustrators stop changing....
I'm loving this series a lot, so far. I really like Cindy Moon. She cracks lame jokes, doesn't know any lingo or pop culture references from the last 10 years and she's adorable!That being said, I really feel for her. She was locked away for 10 years, her parents are missing (possibly dead) and her brother is suffering from brain damage. She's dealing with a lot, not sleeping enough and living a double life. I actually teared up a bit at the last scene with her therapist. Another notable thing a...
