Superior Spider-Man Team-Up: Superior Six Review



Finished reading Superior Spider-Man Team-Up: Superior Six, this showcases different stories featuring Doctor Octopus as the Superior Spider-Man. The book opens up with the Wrecking Crew breaking into Alchemax only to be stopped by Spider-Man and his new Superior Six which consists of the former members of the Sinister Six who are under his control as they assist Sun Girl. After retreating the Wrecking Crew go to Lightmaster as they reassemble the Masters of Evil to retrieve the Quantum Particle Engine after Spider-Man placed it into storage at Parker Industries since taking it from Alchemax earlier. The second story deals with the aftermath of the failure of the Superior Six, Spider-Man gets caught in a crossfire between Namor and a group soldiers from Wakanda. The next story has Spider-Man, Daredevil and the Punisher teaming up as they head to Spider-Island where they are met with an ambush orchestrated by the Green Goblin as he got a large group of his henchmen undercover as Spider-Man's own Spiderlings. The final story has Otto having a flashback during the events of Goblin Nation after to years prior where Doc Ock is invited to a European castle where he meets with Norman Osborn so they can use their superior intellects to defeat Spider-Man once and for all. Overall this was a good book as each story deals with a different aspect of Doc Ock's life as Spider-Man in the present and in the past as Otto Octavius. The Punisher and Daredevil have some great interactions and the fight scenes are executed extremely well throughout the story. While the flashback story gives Otto a different dynamic that is very relatable and shows the type of relationship he has with the Green Goblin which brings about an interesting read. 7.5/10.
