Ok, there's one thing that really bothered me from the start and it probably has something to do with me being somewhat of a space nerd. Extra-Vehicular Activities (E.V.A.s) in outer space are extremely dangerous and there's no way mission control would distract an astronaut performing an E.V.A. with video chat from his dad. I mean, I get why Dan Slott wrote the scene the way he did (emotional impact/JJJ appearance) but it's just so unrealistic (yes, I know I'm reading a super hero comic). Other than that I don't have any gripes with the story.

I really enjoyed the banter between Spider-Man and the Human Torch. I haven't read that many comics with both of them in it but I know they're good friends. This issue is really making me excited about the upcoming FF #17 where they become roommates.

As far as the art goes, the expressions on a lot of the characters were tortured and painful to look at, but the overall artwork wasn't too bad.

I thought this was a pretty entertaining issue and it looks like this one and the next are basically the prelude to the "Ends of the Earth" arc which according to solicitations is "the Doc Ock story you've waited 50 years for!"

My rating: 7/10
