Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #23
Writer: Brian Michael Bendis
Artist: David Marquez
Colorist: Justin Ponsor
This has been one of the standout titles for me from Marvel, when they rejigged the Ultimate Universe of comics, I picked up each one and this is the only title of this Universe I am still collecting. Each month this title consistently has me laughing, gasping, tearing up, Bendis has created such a relatability to the lead character. This issue sees us jump ahead a year after the devastating conclusion to #22. Miles' is "Spider-Man No More", although several different supporting characters are urging him to return to being the costumed hero he is. Marquez is back on art, I always think it must be hard to come back onto an arc after Sara Pichelli but he does a great job. This issue is all about convincing Miles to return to heroehood, and also gives us a little more insight into his now girlfriend, Ultime Kate Bishop, and also more about the relationship between him and his father post issue 22. The finale of this issue sees the introduction of some new teen heroes on the streets, fan favourite characters from the regular Marvel Universe, Cloak and Dagger, and it's great to see their Ultimate counterparts get an introduction. I cannot wait to see how the rest of this arc plays out, the arrival of more teen heroes, will this be enough to see the return of Ultimate Spider-Man!
