Comprised of three stories: Spidey vs the Punisher, Spidey and Doctor Strange, and a "just for laughs" story of Spidey vs. the Fantastic Four.
Spidey vs the Punisher was great. It starts as a dark mystery that takes a few twists and turns, progressively getting more lighthearted and ends with a fun fight involving JJJ. The best of the three.
Spidey vs Doctor Strange kept the tension high with dangerous enemies, but - like the few Doc Strange stories I've read - it was confusing in parts. I got to the end and wondered what the villains even wanted.
Spidey vs the Fantastic Four - this was a strange one. Spidey acts out of character, tossing aside "with great power comes great responsibility," using his powers to crash a party and annoying everyone - including me. It's meant to be a jokey story, but story-based humor comes from character. Most of the characters felt "off" here - like they took an story outline they had lying around and put Spidey in the main role, even though it didn't fit his character.
