Araña, Vol. 1: The Heart of the Spider by Fiona Kai Avery, Mark Brooks
2.0
It's like Marvel went to a group of staffers and went "We want a Latina teen hero series by next week".
What had the potential to be a great corner of the Marvel universe turns out to be rather a let-down. Horrible pacing, unremarkable art, and underdeveloped cast. CLEARLY a rush job; but a decent introduction to the Girl-Who-Would-Be-Spider-Girl and interesting concepts.
I'm not sure if I'm invested enough to read Vol. 2, but who knows? This only came up because I wanted some Spider-related reading after finishing the spider-verse run.
