Spider-Man: Maximum Carnage
This book mainly focuses on the impact of having Venom, a raving man, near lunacy, looking for the only true source of justice in his eyes. Vengeance. Then there’s Spider-man, although every person in the world is going to bad-mouth me for this, SPIDER-MAN DOESN’T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A HERO!!!! He just doesn’t, he is always going “do I have to?” Can’t someone else do this?” “Why is it always me that has to face every psycho that comes along?” All i can say is, “Hey spidey! You made the right decision becoming a hero, now live up to it! That’s Why I rallied behind Venom all the way through this book, he knew he was going into something that was going to test his every ability, yes, including bloodthristiness. Rating: 5 / 5
I think that anyone who would give this crossover a bad reveiw was not paying attention. It was entertaing and the art was exceptional. I think that if you’re a Spider-man Fan you will love this title. Rating: 5 / 5
This is a poor Spider-Man story. Marvel simply took many of its popular charectars and had them slug it out for 14 issues. If you are interested in Spider-Man, I suggest you buy Fearful Symmetry or Hobgoblin Lives. Rating: 2 / 5
Real good story,excellent plot, awesome characters and kind of left a good message.One of the best mini series turned book in Marvels history. Rating: 5 / 5
I come from Africa. If you see adjacent comics in a series like Maximum carnage, you know you are going to have your face eaten by a terrier on the way home. It just doesnt happen. So 17 years pass, and I get the opportunity to purchase this sucka. Apparently I was a cretin before puberty. There are 3 lines pooled between the good guys, and the bad guys get their 3. The whole freaking shebang involves a lot of back of forth as the good guys consistently rediscover recidivism at the cost of thousands of innocent lives. The morality is banal, the lines trite, the artwork is quite nice and Venom is Venom, which is always a plus. I just wish Lobo would appear and Venom and him could cumulatively rend the other useless punks limb from limb.
Seriously considered discarding several times, and mangling (ripping to shreds) about 4 times.
crud, banal, trite (worst writing I have ever encountered) Rating: 1 / 5
