Ultraman: Along Came a Spider-Man Volume 1 Review

Jul 21, 12:00 manga

In this, Spider-Man and Ultraman are kindred spirits, and I'm not quite sure what I expected their connection to be but I like this angle as a way to bridge these two very different characters. ― Ultraman: Along Came a Spider-Man is a solid start for an Ultraman and Spider-Man that hits most of the notes you would expect.

The ethos of Spider-Man revolves around a perfectly normal guy being pushed into situations where he is...
