Spider-Manâs sophomore issue sees the local hero taking his new powers out for a spin in Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #2. Written by Christos Gage, and with art by Eric Gapstur, the eponymous hero immediately bumps into an unhappy mob boss, his goons and a new high school bully.Gaining superpowers is a surefire way to throw out your old routine. Instead of studying, instead of hobbies, Peter Parker now spends his days figuring out how to do this hero thing. Thankfully, heâs always been a smart kid, even before the spider-bite (inciting) incident. Which means, thereâs a lot more to fighting crime than just swinging punches. Pete needs to work out a way to stop bad guys without killing them, create a mask that doesnât stick to his web fluids, and get better at lying to Aunt May. If thereâs anything the second issue of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has to say, itâs that even though Peteâs a smart kid, he still has a lot to learn.Which honestly makes the rest of this issue that much more underwhelming. Itâs another strong start, but this time it leads to a pretty formulaic Spider-Man story. Thereâs a lot of time spent on Peter figuring out his powers with a trial and error approach. Itâs always fun, but itâs also very familiar. Also, familiar and frankly, pretty dated at this point, is the introduction of a stereotypical high school bully who aims to physically harm Peter Parker.
