Also back is Petey's incredibly bad luck. He's managed to get the attention of a certain crime lord who wants the webslinger out of the picture - for good. To this end, the baddies start making their own super-powered fighters, with a single goal - to squish a certain bug.
In Market Forces, one assassin thug named "Montana" (Jeff Bennett) gets upgraded with a powerful suit to become the Shocker. In Competition, another thug gets changed in an experimental science project gone awry to become the Sandman (John Di Maggio) - a powerful being made of living sand. In The Invisible Hand, a third thug is enchanced with a suit that gives him impervious skin... and he was a behemoth of a man before the suit. He, of course, becomes Rhino (Clancy Brown) - not the smartest in all supervilliany, but definitely one of the hardest to stop.
Will Spider-Man be able to overcome all three of these super-baddies? Of course - and he'll do so making his famous quips. Because he's unstoppable, right? But what about his friends and family? How to juggle the responsibility?
I enjoyed The Spectacular Spider-Man: Volume Two and would recommend it to Spidey fans and prospective Spidey fans, alike.
