Superior Spider-Man, Vol. 3: No Escape

I love this title so much! It is not only full of action-packed, Spidey adventures, it is laugh out loud funny. I am a huge Peter Parker fan, but Doc Ock is so, so good in this role. The opening story with the Spider Slayer showed again that Otto may actually be a superior Spider-Man to Peter. I am in no way endorsing capital punishment carried out by superheroes, but Doc Ock seems to be very good at getting the job done for the greater good. Because he was a former supervillain, he is continually one step ahead of the villains that he encounters.Taking over the raft, and turning it into his new headquarters (Spider Island 2) was a genius move, and hiring Spiderlings as his "henchmen" was so hilariously enjoyable for me to read. His robots, the Aracnaughts, help make the Superior Spider-Man a legitimate military force. I could go on and an on about how much I like the new Spider-Man. For example, his new costume is super cool, and the advanced technology that he uses to fight crime truly makes him superior to the Amazing Spider-Man. If Peter Parker ever finds a way to make a return as the Amazing Spider-Man, I honestly want Doc Ock to continue as the Superior Spider-Man. In a lot of ways, I want Peter to stay dead, because this title is just too good. Thank you, Dan Slott.Other quick notes:-Taking down the Kingpin had to be done. Otto did the right thing, although it is possible this will escalate the violence.-I like this version of Hobgoblin, but seeing him take over as the Goblin Knight may be fun too. I'm optimistic about this.-I'm not convinced that the Goblin King is Norman Osbourne, but I could be wrong. Either way, we are heading towards a huge war against the goblins.-The Lizard is a good guy now? This can't be forever.-There is a nerd character that is really mad and powerful. I don't know who he is, but he seems important.-Carlie seems to have things figured out about "Peter" not being himself, but I don't want her to solve the mystery. She is being aided in her investigation by Wraith. Again, I have no idea who this character is, or her importance.-Norah got fired. What will they do with the character now?

Just what I needed

I've loved Superior Spider-Man since the first issue, and this series continues to make me enjoy it even more. Many problems arise for ol' Otto and its fun to see how he deals with them in a superior way. Story is amazing. Art is great.

I bought volume three from this website after purchasing volumes one and two in a brick and mortar store. I prefer the first two volumes which have more character development and, in fact, more characters in them. In the first two series, Otto was trying to find his own way of being Spider-Man and undergoing some moral development. In these stories, he has became an unchecked megalomaniac, as he was back in his own body, before the first time he died (before Lady Octopus resurrected him). I haven't yet read the stories that will be in the next two volumes, but I hope that he becomes somewhat conflicted again, which makes for more inventive stories IMO.

Otto Octavius IS the Superior Spider-Man! This volume sees Otto as Peter Parker/Spider-Man really upping the ante and moving New York towards a benevolent spider-themed dictatorship. It just keeps getting better and better. Otto approaches the superhero role like a super villain and the results are both hilarious and fun. Otto has improved crime fighting far past what Peter could have ever imagined but it's making him some powerful enemies. I can't wait to see how the Otto and the series progresses.Bring on volume 4!

The solicit info is slightly off, this also includes Superior Spidey # 16.Anyhow... Dan Slott is weaving his magic, the story of SpOck keeps building, while the blocks are being put together, we start to see the tiniest of chinks in Spidey's armor, and the excitement continues. Giuseppe Camuncoli and Humberto Ramos and the rest of the art team are really lighting it up on the art front. Superior Spider-Man is some of the best Spidey I've ever had the pleasure of reading.

A very different take on Spiderman. Check this one out if you already picked up volume 1. It's a very interesting take on both Spiderman and Doc Ock and Dan Slott continues taking the character to new territories we haven't seen in a Spiderman comic.

Great continuation from the last volume. I loved every page. Each character is written in such a way they feel real.

I bought this because of the 3 issue story ark were Spider-Man who was really doc OCD goes to the raft to witness the execution of the spider slayer these three issues read almost like a horror move people trapped in location check people making dumb decisions check monsters lose in the dark check also a prison break storie and some good character development for johna j Jameson dan slott was really on form when he wrote this the series had some dips in quality later on ps that was supposed to say doc ock

I love the Hobgoblin storyline so much. Story and art are just the best.

An interesting read that got me back into spiderman. Artwork is stunning and the characters feel real and the concept of the struggles of the main characters is refreshing and makes you want to pick this up and stick with it.

Doc Ock Taking the SUperior Spiderman to a whole NEW LEVEL!! Absolutely love the new gadgets and upgrades that Spidey have been getting !!!

Great.
