Sensational Spider-Man: Feral

Spider-Man is a great character. He's everyman, though he does have super powers. In this collection, the animal takes over in several of Spidey's regulars. It is somewhat weak in plot, but great in art and action.

The storyline in this series is very interesting. Its a small puzzle but one that makes spiderman think and try to peice together whats going on. I like all the cameo's from different villians and the strange behaviour. The fight scenes are well done and very graphic. A very good read!

In this book you will find the the biggest animal fight, this story tells about strange behavior in all the animals in New York, but the problem begins with some of the spidey's foes, the lizard, black cat, vulture etc. go crazy and they can't control their rage, even spiderman get influenced by this crazyness. The art is very strong and really gooood, if you think you enjoy a good spiderman story, this is the one.

Reprinting Nos. 23 - 27 of the current Sensational Spider-Man ongoing, "Feral" kicks the new creative team's run off with a bang in a riveting, action-packed and character-strong arc that reminds me of the very best Spider-Man stories from the late 80s through the mid 90s. It's one of the best Spider-Man stories of recent years (and one of the last stories to take place before the major changes in the great, Marvel Universe-wide "Civil War" crossover) and could have grabbed a five-star rating if not for a single, but fairly significant, flaw in the latter parts of the story. As it begins, a phenomenon is in the early stages of beginning to take shape in New York - people are getting more aggressive. Not just aggressive; something seems to be drawing out the violent and (as the collection's title would imply) feral, in a lot of folks. Among those first affected - and most severely affected - are many of the members of New York's superhuman population whose powers have a connection with predatory animals - Curt Connors aka The Lizard; John Jameson (sometimes known as the Man Wolf), etc. As the city begins to erupt into more frequent violence and chaos, Spider-Man and his allies are pushed to the limits not only to try and control the outbreaks but to get to the source of it all. In the ally department, this story brings in a lot of characters and is really a great book for highlighting how Spidey and his allies - both his 'support crew' and the other superheroes - operate together both in a crisis and in a broader sense. The most important members of the 'support crew' are Mary Jane and Aunt May - they certainly can't fight like Spider-Man or someone can (on the other hand, as has been demonstrated a number of times in recent years, they're not always as helpless as one might think in a dangerous situation), but they're vital. Vital not just as characters, but as bona fide parts of the team. For a long time they've been very, very important to the Spider-Man books (no ongoing series has ever been good for long if it tries to turn itself into a one-man show, no matter how good the guy or girl who's got their name on the cover is), but they've emerged more recently as essential elements to the whole 'team Spider-Man' concept; much in the same way as non-combatant Alfred Pennyworth is essential to the Batman's operations. On the 'fellow superhero' front, the Black Cat, the Fantastic Four and the Puma are brought in on the action to help deal with the deluge of villains who wreak havoc in Feral. The dialogue is cool and believable. The characterization is great - MJ and May get a lot of page time, and as for Peter, the way he's so desperate to help Curt Connors (who as the Lizard has tried to kill him on many occasions) not just because he wants to prevent the Lizard from emerging and raising hell but because he's formed a bond of friendship with Curt that's completely unhindered by all that's gone down between Spidey and Lizard, is a
