Civil War II: Amazing Spider-Man Review

Finished reading Civil War II: Amazing Spider-Man, tying into Marvel’s Civil War II event as writer Christos Gage brings Spider-Man's perspective to the event to life when he begins to work with Ulysses for a time. The book opens to Spider-Man fighting the villainous team known as the Vulturions before meeting up with Ulysses, the Inhuman with precognitive abilities and the course of the event itself, as they work together to stop a jealous man killing his ex girlfriend and her current boyfriend. Later on Spider-Man takes Ulysses to Parker Industries where Ulysses has a vision of Spider-Man fighting with Clayton Cole who is back in his Clash costume which leads to Peter to be more cautious around Clayton which maybe a bad idea. Overall this was a good book as Spider-Man almost a secondary main character as Clayton Cole the former villain known as Clash is made the main character thanks to writer Christos Gage who gives Clayton some great development and insight to his life before he dawns the Clash costume again. The book also does a nice job in giving Ulysses a lesson in with his powers thanks to Spider-Man telling him about his experiences in life with his fight with Clash being one of these many experiences he has to learn from. The art by Travel Foreman is good as it works extremely for the designs of Clash's powers and costume along the the look of Mendel Stromm and his robots look great especially within the fight scenes between him and Spider-Man. 7/10.
