Amazing Spider-Man by Nick Spencer Vol. 1: Back to Basics by Nick Spencer

4.0

The Trade's title is perfect. Nick Spencer is bringing Spider-Man back to the basics in a way that hasn't happened since Brand New Day, I'm sure. It seems like a lot of soft reboots have a gimmick or some reason to rationalize their existence. Spencer's thus far is almost a lack of gimmick.

Peter Parker is once again down on his luck with new roommates and new social awkward norms

Once the new status quo is established, we have a short arc that seems to be written by Silver Age Superman writers and I think that's fantastic. This is more like a 3.5
