Book Review: The Silver Surfer #9 and The Amazing Spider-Man #9

I just love reading these classic comics you don't find stories like these anymore.


Book: The Silver Surfer issue #9 - To Steal The Surfer's Soul! by Stan Lee and John Buscema

Rating: 4 stars

Review:

This story is a continuation from the last issue. The action started pretty quick in this with The Flying Dutchman battling The Silver Surfer to try to get The Surfer's soul for Mephisto. This fast paced story had the two fighting throughout the city, even though The Surfer tried to take the fight away from the area.

I loved how The Surfer figured out a way to end the fight and not only save himself but also help The Flying Dutchman.

This was a good issue.



Book: The Amazing Spider-Man #9 - The Man Called Electro! by Stan Lee

Rating: 4 stars

Review:

Spider-Man had his work cut out for him when he had to go up against Electro but that wasn't the toughest thing he had to deal with. Peter had to deal with his Aunt May needing surgery and trying to find the money to pay for it. Peter came up with a rather questionable way of getting the money but he redeemed himself later on for it.

This was another really good issue. It had a good story and good action. Spider-Man continues to use his brain over brawn to figure out a way to stop Electro. It's interesting the fans always mention Gwen Stacey as being Peter's first love but it seems like Betty Grant was his first love. J. Johan Jameson continues to be a jerk this time thinking Electro is none other than Spider-Man. Only Jameson would think that.
