    Amazing Spider-Man/Venom: Death Spiral #1 is dark, heavy and full of mystery. Can Peter put his life together? Can Mary Jane come to terms with being attached to Venom? Same can be said about Eddie and Carnage. Will Spider-Man take notice of the serial murders that have rocked this debut issue? All of these things are woven perfectly together making this a real page turner. A captivating story with dark gritty artwork that will make you want more! Read Full Review

While this start is slow, and may not demand the same excitement the start of a crossover normally does, it does setup a swansong with a lot of potential. Read Full Review
