Series review - Amazing Spider-man: Renew Your Vows

It's been a while since I did a review. In that time Secret Wars has been delayed and extended while the tie-in minis are coming to their natural ends. Like Amazing Spider-man: Renew Your Vows. So let's take a look at the entire series to see if it's any good or not.

Secret Wars #3

After the destruction of the world in issue one and the introduction of the new world in issue two, the third issue of Secret Wars takes things a bit slower but still manages to move the plot forward.

Beware of spoilers in this review.

The Amazing Spider-man: Renew your vows #1

The Spider-man story One More Day is one of the most controversial mainstream comic book stories ever published since it took away the marriage between Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson, a pairing that remains popular to this day. The Spider-man fans who are pro-marriage have been hoping for the undoing of the marriage to be undone in a follow up story and they're hoping that this Secret Wars tie in is going to be that story.

If that hope will be fulfilled remains to be seen. But so far Renew your vows has given us an intersting story with a married Spider-man at the center of it.

Secret Wars #1 - 2

Like the unrelenting hordes of the apocalypse summer is at our door and that means it is time for the big comic book companies to publish their massive mega crossover events, whether we like it or not, with a main series, mini-series a plenty that supposedly tie in to the main series and a fair number of the regular monthly series' halt their own storylines (or rushed them in previous issues) in order to tie in to the event and hopefully get more readers interested in their series. It's quite a lot to take in really, but that's the current nature of the industry.

I haven't paid much attention to Marvel's last two event series but since their latest magnum opus is supposed to reboot/reshuffle/reimagine/redecorate the whole of the Marvel universe I felt that it was probably necessary for me to get into it. So here's my, delayed because I'm lazy, review of the first two issues of Marvel's Secret Wars.
