In light of the SPIDER-VERSE saga that happened this past summer, I thought I'd dust this 4-part series off for a proper read-through. It's an interesting take, and I did like it for the most part. But my problems were with the names: "Uncle Bhim", "Pavitr Prabhakar", "Meera Jain". Maybe they were afraid to veer a little off the path into unfamiliar territory with those, but as a life-long Spidey fan, I would've been fine with names that didn't look like the ones we are used to seeing. All in all, a good story, and I like the artwork. It didn't rate higher for the name thing, and I didn't think it brought anything new to the Spider-Man story.
