this is hands down the best spiderman story I own. It really is completely different in tone from Dark kight returns. A very touching and intriguing read
thank you so much for recommending SM Reign, it is (in my opinion) one of the the best spider-man events or comics ever, it was fucking amazing, it had all the best villians, spidey gets to use his black suit, it's sooo dark themed, and Venom is the main bad guy, it was just a great read
@Tombstone943 neither mac gargen or eddie is wearing the venom suit its just the venom symbiote (it can take human form) by itself although its mentions that a bit of eddie is a part of him so either he means DNA or personality/memory
I had seen this comic at Borders, but never really had any interest in it. After this review I went and read it and it was epic. One of the best Spider-Man comics I have ever read. It was dark, it was suprising, so true to the characters yet putting them in completely new situations. Art was a bit weird and occasionally even had trouble recognising characters. But it didn't detract from the awesome story.
Another great review, Kev! Always so informative. I only have one complaint, though. I don't care too much for the whiteboard. I much prefer the still frames from the actual comic that you used to use. Maybe a mixture of the two in the future?
i got it after i saw ur review and i found awesome (nicknamed it "Spider-Man: The Web-Head Returns" since its like The Dark Knight Returns xD ) at last a spiderman story that didnt dissapoint me
i couldn't help but notice that your copy of Spider-Man Reign is different than mine. Your's has Spider-Man with the red and blue costume, but my cover has him wearing the black costume (threads i assume). Were there alternate covers? Anyway it's pretty cool.
Yo I kno this comment should be on a different video but would u do a 101class on the flash u know the entire flash family and reverse flash and the speed force in general? It would really help me comprehend it alot more and it will help me answer any doubts I might have..I would truly apreciate it bro..thanx
Dcompose, dude your posts are entertaining and insightful, you need to make more of them, what are your latest thoughts on spidey - putting me to sleep!!!!
I have very mixed feelings about this story actually. artwise great. in terms of being a Dark compelling and yeah being the Dark knight of Spidey A+. I sorta feel like the Symbiote taking over NYC was done in a different and clever way too. I sorta wished we learned what happened to Norman osborn tho. We have Doc Ock and venom so why not NO? the radioactive spider sperm was kinda dumb. I mean as a plot device for this story...ok. but I wouldn't like it to be 616 canon or anything
holy fuck the tentacles pulling the skeleton of doc ock...that shits fucked up and how MJ dies because of peter being radioactive...i couldn't stand knowing i was what caused my wifes death...i would be devastated and that whole symbiote taking over new york....web of shadows reference anyone??
have you read conan marvel comics? id love to see a 101 on him. I know u r site says u only really read marvel and dc comics but do u read spawn? only askin cause id like to see a chapel 101. cause i heard he ends up goin to hell and kickin satans ass and ends up rulein it. well thats it and tkx for ur vids when i found ur channel i ended up watching all your 101's which are very cool.
Peter had given up being spiderman so many times, but he always comes back to spiderman, its amazing
Love this guys videos
this is hands down the best spiderman story I own. It really is completely different in tone from Dark kight returns. A very touching and intriguing read

sounds awesome
when he opens the bag i imagine the responsibility from the movies
@Tombstone943 neither mac gargen or eddie is wearing the venom suit its just the venom symbiote (it can take human form) by itself although its mentions that a bit of eddie is a part of him so either he means DNA or personality/memory
nice review i like it and yea peters life is always sad and you really made me want to bye it thnx

Another Awesome 101 Class Kev! I love your Spider-man Stuff
The bell thing was so obvious.
But then again, whenever I think about bells my mind immediatley thinks 'Symbiote'.
dont forget hypno hustler...he plays an important part too.
I just realised that the reign is an analogy for the nursery rhyme isty bitsy spider "down came the RAIN and washed the spider out"
Didn't they specifically point that out in the beginning of the book?
+dumbsvillechannel yeah but they don't specify the correlation between the play on works of rain and reign, expecting you to understand yourself
TheCelticTiger32 I felt like it was obvious enough of a homophone to get the analogy, but, hey, people learn differently.
ok now i rlly want this book
It is filled with such amount of sorrow... It was almost painful to read.
I have to buy it. Now. It has to be on my bookshelf.

He takes cares of the flowers at a flower shop.
Man that sounds like a good read. I will try to go to my comic book store ANd get it.
this actually sounds like an amazing story. i think im gonna pick it up if i can find one. thx kev
Um Kev , you forgot to mention that Venom in The Story is Edward Saks , The Mayor`s Assistant who may or may not be Eddie Brock.
this is personlly one of my favorite. this almost made me cry at the end!
Cool review man i gotta find the book.
Two best friends brought me here
Oh no New york is stuck in a crappy Pauly Shore Move.
lol love the review kev
Hey! I have the same shirt you're wearing!
yes it is, its not spelt like a spider web, but in the comic, where it isnt a spiders web but instead a giant forcefeild, its spelt webb
that reminds me of betty dying in the hulk comics from radiatiob exposer from the abomination
I know mary jane died but that means that don't have be spider-man in more
HOW COME WHEN I SEE HIM FINDING HIS MASK I HEAR THE RESPONSIBIBLITY THEME FROM THE MOVIE ALSO WHEN HE FIGHTS VENOM AND WHEN HE FINDS HIS COSTUME
i got it after i saw ur review and i found awesome (nicknamed it "Spider-Man: The Web-Head Returns" since its like The Dark Knight Returns xD )
at last a spiderman story that didnt dissapoint me
Mysterio or Electro 101?
this sounds like Spiderman Web of Shadows
So how exactly do the tentacles communicate with Peter?
Comic book store? Maybe just a guess?
you can see peters what on the cover?
@tdvigil well he thinks mjs death is his fault so yeah, it makes sense that he would quit
Exactly
Two Best Freinds?
@Sheamuscoronation is there 2 b's in web???
you didnt mention sandmans daughter
Is the venom in this story the Mac Gargen venom or Eddie Brock venom?
What is your take on Indian Spider-Man?
i couldn't help but notice that your copy of Spider-Man Reign is different than mine. Your's has Spider-Man with the red and blue costume, but my cover has him wearing the black costume (threads i assume). Were there alternate covers? Anyway it's pretty cool.
is this related to spiderman web of shadows
Yo I kno this comment should be on a different video but would u do a 101class on the flash u know the entire flash family and reverse flash and the speed force in general? It would really help me comprehend it alot more and it will help me answer any doubts I might have..I would truly apreciate it bro..thanx
Are you going to do a Spider-man: Other 101? Or would you need to an Avengers; Disassembled 101 first?

@iAudioWarrior got nothing to do with it spider-man reign story is a story in a other universe.
so would not effect it.
Do they teach you how to spell where you live?
holy fuck the tentacles pulling the skeleton of doc ock...that shits fucked up
and how MJ dies because of peter being radioactive...i couldn't stand knowing i was what caused my wifes death...i would be devastated and that whole symbiote taking over new york....web of shadows reference anyone??
WTF!!!??? No Doc Ock in Sinner Six???
