I have to admit that when I first saw the promo pics of "melon-head" Ultimate Spider-Man, I was very worried. My fears were easily brushed aside upon reading Ultimate Spider-Man #1 vol 2. This is Brian Michael Bendis' baby and it is the book that plays on all his stengths of characterization and dialog. Bendis work on this book continues to remind me why I fell in love with comics back in 1974. Every character matters. There is drama and there is plenty of fun. It's almost as if Stan Lee were a young man and writing Spider-Man for this modern world of ours. A greater compliment I cannot give.
DAVID LAFUENTE really impressed me! I was dreading his art, but he totally turned me around! He is a master story-teller and every panel was exciting and fun! Will I embrace him as much as Mark Bagely? Maybe... ![]() Al |

I fully agree bro, I can see why Bendis chose this guy for the book. I think we'll all get used to the "melon-head" by issue 3. Besides that, i was impressed with the writing and the art. Dare i say it...the Ultimate universe is making a serious comeback, because this and Ult. Avengers were great starts.

There is already an Ultimate Spider-Man thread.

Probably we need a new Ultimate Comics Spider-Man thread as this series enters its Vol.2?

I loved Ultimate Spider-Man but this vol 2 didn't do anything for me.

I really think they need to change the artist. I can't stand it, and it is distracting me from the story at points I find.

![]() Someone else that shares my sentiment. We know Peter Parker is still a teenager but he's not THAT SMALL. Nor does his head grow to unbelievable sizes when he puts on the Spider-Man mask.
