Some fun moments, but felt like a lot of wheel spinning. Not much changes from the beginning to the end, plot wise or character wise. And there isn’t a lot of tension in the dramatic irony of the reader knowing who these villains are but not Miles.

I found this volume to be much stronger and more satisfying than the previous one, with some much-needed "up" moments to contrast with some of the "downs" in previous issues. However, it still had high enough stakes to make them feel well-earned. I enjoyed this a lot.

This was another great one as we see Miles fighting Prowler and then we understand why because of the last volume and they fight but then he redeems and prevents his uncle from killing but then the assassins are after them and they have to dodge Miles villain while bonding and we have this great moment where we see the birth of his sister Billie and it was emotional to see that family reunion moment and finally we have Miles trying to be a big bro!

Then his bad luck starts when his journal is missing and then he faces off against Ultimate Green Goblin and his Goblinoids but at a great personal cost.

This volume tests the resilience of Miles as he tries to balance superheroics with personal life at great cost and even in the face of Armageddon he has some good moments with his sister and the big plot with how the Goblin and who is ultimatum is building up really well and Miles is figuring some stuff out which will change the Marvel universe in a big way and I love how the writer delves into it. I am loving the art also and how the artist is comfortable drawing it. Plus it brings about consistency and all.

This is a must read book for sure and continues Miles surprising development into the hero he is and also sheds some light on who he is as a person and how the people around him influence him that way and makes sense of his somewhat complex continuity with great writing!
